When it was over, I had the strong desire to run to my Nintendo Wii and play some Tetris. And isn't that exactly the reaction a movie like this should want to induce? Go to Full Review

Feb 5, 2020 The story of finding the world champion of Tetris - the history's most played videogame. Some very geeky fellas are followed and while one guy manages to gather them all we also see loads of archived clips and interviews as the weeks to the final shrinks into days. It's almost as interesting as it is geeky. All those names, tricks and facts about the game that for 99 per cent of all people are totally unheard of. It's hilarious, really. Dead serious hilariousness. It's fun to see the original creartor of the game and the buil up to the final are done pretty nicely. You kind of feel that you know most players in the final big eight sit down. I remember enjoying "The King of Kong" and this film is pretty close to it. Naturally the theme and plot is very similiar, but this has a bit more amatour-ish vibe. It has a lot of hard and a big, geeky wow-factor but also a lot of heart. 8 out of 10 four liners. See more
Nov 4, 2013 'Overly geeky documentaries about competitive gaming' is slowly becoming one of my favourite genres in film. After 'The King of Kong' comes this documentary, not about Kong this time but about Tetris and the (often hilarious) brilliant minded geeks that compete for the title. Mesmerizing. See more
Oct 13, 2013 Not as good as King of Kong, but if you've ever played Tetris, you'll probably get a kick out of it. See more
