I am not exactly in the target audience for HERO MODE because I don't watch that many video-game based movies but I was curious about this in particular because there is one of the actors I follow. Considering that it's current score is 4,4 I expected garbage but instead I kinda liked it more than I expected.
Kate Mayfield (Mira Sorvino) is a video game business owner that is financially struggling and asks her son Troy to delevop the greatest video game ever for winning an upcoming gaming convention and if Troy wins the prize Kate will save her business. Troy is enthusiastic about the project but there is competition with Rick (the CEO of a rival company) that wants to win the competition for buying the company and fire everyone. How it will end? See for yourselves.
The plot might look simple as it comes but instead it works because all the cast members give nice performances and the ending is worth the wait. It's also an unique family movie because they still hadn't made one about a boy that has to make a videogame with a time limit.
Not exactly masterpiece theater but still decent entertainment, and that's what counts sometimes.
