In many ways, the existence of NPCs is a pure dream for the background characters in the video game “Free City”: you don’t have to take a stand on anything, avoid worrying about existential thoughts, you can follow safe and established The program spends the rest of his life. However, this is not enough for Guy, the NPC character played by Ryan Reynolds. Something has been tormenting him in his heart: he yearns for something more, maybe a woman next to him, she understands that he wants more ambitions in life. One day, he fell in love with the virtual character of one of the players, and the open world game he filled changed for the better-which made the game company Soonami very annoyed.
“The Undrafted Player” is a story that we have seen many times before: control your life, break the rules, feel the pursuit of dreams, believe in yourself, and embrace the beauty at the end of the movie. But the perspective of the NPC makes this an extremely compact and well-thought-out story; it does its best to represent the game and the game player. “The Undrafted Player” is not just a glued set of game settings, because the filmmakers have also done an excellent job of integrating the best aspects of the digital world with the game culture. It is this kind of community awareness and huge and energetic efforts that make “Out of the Box Player” a certain degree of winner.
Ryan Reynolds is basically playing himself here, and soon everyone will be able to recognize the actor’s trademark wit and sense of humor. However, the character himself does not like violence very much, even though he is surrounded by violence every other time in his arranged NPC life. When Guy tried to break the barriers and began to act in the free city full of “GTA” atmosphere in his own way of defense, he became a role model for many players. Even Twitch gods like Ninja and Pokimane regard this bold NPC character as a real warrior, thinking that Guy is a real player with the appearance of an NPC.
This naive hero complements the role of Jodie Comer. She is given a difficult task to tell Guy that he is not a real person. Commer is particularly suitable for playing the same vulnerable lovers-whether as a virtual character or as an independent developer. By following its own rules, this movie avoids falling into the most clichéd routines, and pays more attention to its characters rather than being as faithful to the model as possible, which makes it a resource-rich and dedicated video game movie. And attracted the right emotional line. Once Guy found the special glasses, the game world itself became very interesting, which made him realize everything from floating first aid kits to loot systems. Of course, there may be some bad CGIs here, but in some places it is intentional. In the end, the devil’s deliberately unfinished and ultimately unsettling rendering is an interesting example of its interest.
However, “The Undrafted Player” is not a completely problem-free story. The biggest problem is its length, which is too much. The last scene continues. Some plain jokes and some unnatural guest appearances also contributed to this sense of procrastination. However, the elements of “Trumen’s World“-well managed and very effective. In the end, it’s hard to make people dislike “The Undrafted Player”. From the first frame to the last frame, you know for sure what kind of work you want to be.
“Unscripted Player” was programmed as a family-oriented, fun, and relaxed hit blockbuster, but its structure is still very classic, and the characters are unexpectedly pleasing. I’m one of those supporters who still think that Cronenberg’s “X Contact from Another World” is the best video game adaptation film ever, but if there are any signs of “Sonic Boy” and “Unscripted Player” that are mass-produced video games Adaptation is feasible in the long run, so I would like to see more. Although it is easy to figure out the path the drama plot is heading from the beginning, you will always be surprised by the charm and mixed genre of this movie. In a cute and fast-paced story about humans, the twisted game satire Encountered the relaxed sci-fi existentialism.
