"That was far more entertaining than a movie that's essentially about
contract law really deserves to be." <- My wife's review of the Tetris movie, which we watched last night.

While they (obviously) took liberties with the story, if you read the
wikipedia page, there are a lot of things that you'd be inclined to think
"No way!" about when watching the movie that are actually pretty well
grounded in the truth. All in all, it was a pretty fun movie.

To which Atari8Guy replies...

Agreed, it was a solid 90 minutes of entertainment. They even made Atari
into the badguys.... Nice touch.

I watched this movie, and I must say that it made me curious about doing some research to the origin of the Tetris game!

The movie was actually pretty intriguing and fun to watch (I liked the soundtrack and these pixel graphic graphic effects), and of course, it made me play Tetris again after years!

A good movie to watch - recommended!

It's also definitely better than the last movie with Tetris in it (pixels).
I want to watch it but I don't know which streaming service it's on

I always imagined that the Tetris movie was be set in Soviet Russia in the 50s, bleak, grey. It follow a bricklayer in his late 50s coming to terms with Stalins death, trying to figure out what it all means. He contemplates an uncertain future, and his drinking problem as he slowly puts bricks into place to build a wall.

It would be like an arthouse movie, he tries to piece is life together as he pieces together the wall, but in the end realises the futility of existence, pushes the wall over and the movie just ends.
