nothing to uncover the Egg. Alongside his unlikely group of friends, Wade sets
out to find the Egg first and bring peace to the OASIS.

We Said: “Nostalgia is a
precious thing, and nobody nurtures it better on the big screen than Spielberg
does. From the jukebox soundtrack to the John Hughes-esque love story,
Spielberg manages to inject just enough heart into all of that spectacle. Ready
Player One probably isn’t going to sit alongside E.T. as one of
Spielberg’s all-time greats, but what if E.T. could cross paths with Donkey
Kong? Now that would be something.” Rating:
3.5 out of 5
