Reminds me of the sights and sounds of my childhood...

Going into the film, I was expecting to see another rehash of the same arcade documentaries I had already seen. Instead, I got a very pleasant surprise. The film made me feel like I was really getting to know the people that contributed. The cast of characters was interesting, and always entertaining. I'm certainly no expert on gaming, but I came out of the film knowing a lot more than I did when it started. I love it when a film does that! For any of the generation of the 80s, or anyone who spent many a quarter in the arcade, film maker Dave Danzara has created a must-see film. Already have it in DVD, and waiting for the BluRay to enjoy the film even more. Go forth and watch The Video Craze!
