A bank teller called Guy realizes he is a background character in an open world video game called Free City that will soon go offline.
"'Free Guy' is undoubtedly a pleasant surprise. A mix of 'Pixels' with 'The Truman Show' and 'Player One', the feature film tells the story of a video game character who gains consciousness - and embarks on a great virtual adventure with a programmer. This story is built from the charisma of Ryan Reynolds ('Deadpool'), which has clear inspiration in Jim Carrey, but adding the energy of the action films in which he is also the protagonist. All this loaded with many references (including cinematic, it is impossible not to notice!) And an interesting subtext about acceptance, love and, mainly, a criticism of the corporate rat race. In the director's chair, Shawn Levy ('Giants of Steel' and producer of 'Stranger Things') proves once again that it is perfect to bring together ideas and concepts from different places in a single pot that, yes, yields a good broth - even if it is not innovative. In addition to Reynolds, the good cast brings Joe Keery (also from 'Stranger Things'), Jodie Comer ('Killing Eve') and Taika Waititi ('What We Do in the Shadows') - the latter priceless, stealing the scene."
