Ready player one
================

I have been to the cinema again. That was nice. There are so few movies lately that I consider worth watching, that is has been a nice change of daily routine to be able to enjoy a movie in the cinema again.

`Ready Player One <https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1677720/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1>`__ is the adoption of the book that came out a couple of years earlier and that I got as a gift in :ref:`2017 <2017-ready_player_one>`. The book was quite good as I recall. A lot of nostalgic, childhood memories and fun.

The movie on the other hand seems to be adopted to a wider audience. A broader taste only can be satisfied with a more common taste. So basically many things that made the book good, were thrown out or changed.

A love story, a youth club, a lot of references thrown out - all that were changes that were unnecessary. At the end the movie is a slightly better kind of entertainment and only a few inches above my imaginary line of where I consider a movie not worth seeing in the cinema. Just a few inches. But still above.
