But, it is also a great DVD. It has a lot of extended interviews and follow up information, all that are as compelling as the film itself. If you have an open evening I highly suggest checking all the special features. Even the commentary offers some good insights into the interesting characters in this film.

I was hoping that Steve Wiebe would pull it through and he doesn't let me down. Billy Mitchell is a wuss who hides behind his "glory days". It's amazing he still gets into any arcade with how big his head is. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More ...that classic video game "nerds" (and I am one) could be so anal and so devious when it comes to monitoring and protecting their high game scores! The movie is a little slow to start in setting the stage but when they get to actually playing the video game and the behind-the-scenes gamesmanship it really takes off. However, it really isn't much of a comedy - more of a straight documentary. Be sure to watch "The saga continues" extra AFTER you watch the movie. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL?

Read More I just finished watching the DVD and I'm so happy the ending turned out the way it did. In my opinion Billy Mitchell is such a pompous egomaniac it's a wonder he can fit in any door with the size of head he has. But I won't spend much time writing about him because he's the loser. My joy is attained from the fact that Steve Weibe beat the pants off of him and Billy never had the guts to face him in a real one on one stand-off. You Go Steve Weibe!!! You deserve all the acollades and awards you've earned. I wish I had a friend like you. And Billy Mitchell, I have nothing but disdain for the man. Steve Weibe is the King of Kong.

I know it was short and less than 90 minutes but it just wasn't my cup o tea. I have to say there were some funny parts but not many. I do not reccommend buying it but if you are interested you should rent it.
If you love the classic video games this movie is for you Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No |
