Some of these types of shows are so dry and boring (even to a die hard like me) that I have a hard time sitting through them. I actually enjoyed this one, even though it took me until the next day to see the double entendre in the title (slow, I know.)
I also could not help but to feel sorry for a number of the folks, especially the guy who put the tape on his TV screen to try to shave a quarter second off his Barnstorming score (I swear I have met him somewhere....)
But I think the strangest one is the kid who lied about his Donkey Kong scores and apparently carried the guilt so deeply that he became a preacher hoping to atone for it. Maybe that isn't the way it happened, but it sure looks that way.
All in all, it was a very compelling and well done human interest story, but I think it put classic gaming in a bit of a negative light. There were millions of folks who just enjoyed them for what they were and didn't become obsessive-compulsive societal misfits as a result. But the latter certainly make the movie more interesting.
