Is this worth watching?

This movie is surprisingly bad.

It's almost as bad as the AVGN movie, and it's just as big a mystery; someone CLEARLY talented and entertaining that knows how to make great videos, makes a movie that's as interesting to watch as a snail traversing through 800 meters wide glue pond, unusually slowly.

I'd rather watch 20 randomly-selected videos from 'Best of the Worst' 24 hours in a row than watch this movie again.

Basically this is Rich Evans (gotta love him, though) bumbling around and acting as badly as possible, while groaning some really stupid lines and 'one-liners' that make you groan at best, make you want to bash your head against a wall at worst while crying about your wasted childhood.

There are some very rare glimpses of 'funny parts', like Mike's character trying to impress a guy from the future by using 1980s technology, that seems amazing to his character, because he's from the past.. (sounds more complicated than it is), and using 'obsolete' terminology that's deemed forbidden nowadays.

Basically, no, this movie is not worth watching. I could recommend it just to satisfy your curiosity, if it wasn't so gosh-darned BORING, just like the AVGN movie is.

It's -barely- better than the AVGN movie, and that's saying a lot, since it's hard to imagine a worst turd than the AVGN movie. Even the much-hyped E.T.-review wasn't used organically to support the story, but just slapped at the end credits, almost like a bonus video that has nothing to do with the actual movie.

All the things that COULD have been done with that E.T. -review premise... and he doesn't even hate the game! He actually almost praises it, killing the LAST potential for fun the movie could've had. Incredible.

These movies are like cousins.. great talent making horribly boring awfulness as movie.. how the heck does this happen?

If youre a redlettermedia fan I'd say go ahead and watch it, I enjoyed Mikes role as a detective from a past era teamed up with the future space cop Rich Evans
