Indie Game: The Movie 2012
Watched Aug 23, 2012
paul’s review:
Skull fuckingly dull documentary about indie games. That shows us nothing about the mechanics of getting a game to market, and presents us with a selection of hateful, unlikeable, drama queens who bitch and whine about everything.
I like games, i was there when space invaders arrived, i still play occasionaly now, so it's not as it if wasn't the target audience.
For fans of drama queen nerds.
Ahh... I was beginning to think I was the only one who didn't like this dull documentary.
I only looked at the other reviews after i posted mine, was stunned to see the love for this. It's awful. Absolutely awful.
I agree that the guys are raving drama queens but I was genuinely touched by Edmund. I didn't mind the fact that we didn't get to see the mechanics, that didn't seem to be the point. Flet to me that it was just about the eccentric characters behind a couple of games.
