Gran Turismo isn't very good, but I hope to see more films about the video game industry and its impact, not just the games themselves.
I watched the Gran Turismo movie and didn’t think it was very good. Still, I want more video game-related films that are just like it.
Stories begging to be told The video game industry has a rich history of intrigue, drama, and behind-the-scenes stories. When you look at the tell-all articles about the development of games like Anthem or Red Dead Redemption 2 or read books about famous game developers like Reggie Fils-Aimé, Ken and Roberta Williams, or Cliff Bleszinski, it becomes clear that there are lots of compelling game development related stories that the general public does not know about.
As someone who has been more cognizant of the struggles of game development and video games’ clear cultural impact on multiple generations of people than the general public, I’m glad things like PsychOdyssey, Tetris, and Gran Turismo now exist to educate people on those same things. I hope to see many more movies, TV shows, and documentaries like this in the future, although there’s still some obvious room for improvement.
There are multiple scenes of Orlando Bloom’s character waxing poetic about why Gran Turismo and the GT Academy are the best things to ever happen to gamers, and it holds a religious-like reverence for Japan and series creator Kazunori Yamauchi. Ultimately, this is the main area where films like Tetris and Gran Turismo currently fail. While they are biopics about compelling game-tangential stories, they also serve as unsubtle advertisements for the companies behind the games they feature.
