King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters

Classic Good vs. Evil

This movie brought me back some memories because I used to play "Donkey Kong" when I was younger. It was a difficult but fun game... but this movie is more fun than difficult. I could relate to the gamer that the audiences are following because he works so hard and when he fails, he's too hard on himself. Because of that, I rooted for him to win. Even though it's a documentary, I was surprised that it had some twists. This is a really enjoyable picture to watch because it's not about anything political. It's more about overcoming or succeeding at something even if it may seem lame to most people. It's also about winners and losers and the other meanings of those words. This film is about gaming... yet it felt like it was more than that. I couldn't help but smile while I was watching this interesting picture.
