When brilliant video game maker Flynn hacks the mainframe of his ex-employer, he is beamed inside an astonishing digital world...And becomes part of the very game he is designing.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A dazzling plunge into a neon-lit digital realm that feels simultaneously playful and menacing, where a hacker must survive deadly games in a world that follows its own strange logic. It's a visual landmark that treats its computer-generated world with genuine wonder, even as the stakes turn darkly existential.

Reviews
Picked up the remastered Blu-ray during a sale at Deep Discount.
All these years later, it is still a fun film for me!
Watching the ‘making of’ and just marveling that this movie was ever completed at all. It’s a work of passion as well as art.
