Free Guy (2021)

Let me start off by saying that this is not a deep movie, do not dig too deep for meaing. I think this is supposed to be fun, even though you can certainly read some meaning into it. Ryan Reynold is Blue Shirt guy, a non-player character better known as an NPC in a video game. he gets up, puts the same outfit on each day, gets coffee on his way to the bank where he works, and where there is also an armed robbery every day, and then he goes home to do it all over again. That is until one day when he sees a girl cross his path and he wants to follow her, talk to her, and so he grabs some sunglasses off a bank robber, and goes for it. There is a world within the game that he inhabits, but there is a world outside the game and players who come into the game he can talk with, so there are two parallel worlds at play. He realizes that he needs to help the girl within the game to also help her outside the game, and the interplay is fun and entertaining to watch.
