The 3D and film wizardry makes this a movie worth seeing. The message is also admirable. However it is also a little simplistic and nintendo-ish. I guess the current generation of gamers will feel at home with that aspect. It was an entertaining movie but certainly not the best.
The laptop (Skype?) scene is destined to become a comedic classic. It's hilarious! There were a number of laugh out loud moments. Meryl Streep is always great.
