It's not a video game story. The fame is the platform for the real story. A young man wins an opportunity to become a real racer because of his prowess in the game. This is the tale of how he managed to attain his dream. David Harbour steals the movie from Orlando Bloom with his gruff, cynical view of the racing program and his grudgin change of heart. The racing sequences are spectacular and the effects superb. Don't go because you think it's all about a video game. Go because it's a story about a kid whose father is disappointed in him and his devotion to a game and his dream to be a real racer.
