Free Guy

THE GIST: An upbeat and charming bank teller sees his world suddenly change when he accidentally discovers he's actually an NPC (a Non Playable Character) in a massive multi-player videogame. What is he going to do next?

Free Guy's core premise is quite simple, but the final product greatly benefits from Ryan Reynolds's comedy chops and irresistible charms.

It doesn't hurt that he's flanked by other talented actors like Jodie Comer, Lil Rel Howery, Joe Keery, and the inimitable Taika Waititi.

THE BOTTOM LINE: Cool visual effects, a fun cast, and an interesting story pretty much guarantee a good time.
