Free Guy (2021) Review
“Don’t have a good day, have a great day!”
Plot: When a bank teller discovers he's actually a background player in a brutal open-world video game, he decides to become the hero of his own story - one that he can rewrite himself. In a world where there's no limits, he's determined to save the day his way before it's too late, and maybe find a little romance with the coder who conceived him.
Last time I watched such a hyper-actively positive film I was seeing little LEGO figures jumping about on screen with Morgan Freeman hanging off a string in ghost form. Yes, The LEGO Movie shares a lot in common with Free Guy, not just in its opening sequence where Ryan Reynolds’s loveable Guy is starting off a perfectly good day every day with a nice cup of coffee and wishing everyone not a good, but a great day, goes to the job at his bank and goes back home, and rinse and repeat. But the character of Guy himself is basically Chris Pratt’s Emmett from The LEGO Movie - full of sunshine and innocence and taking everything that comes with child-like excitement and energy. You can also treat Mariah Carey’s “Fantasy” song usage here like “Everything is Awesome” with how many times its played, but damn if it isn’t catchy! And the film comparisons don’t end there. You wouldn’t be faulted for seeing references to Ready Player One with all the cameos and Easter Eggs and pop culture references thrown in the mix, to The Truman Show based on the general concept and obviously certain video games such as Grand Theft Auto, Saints Row and even Sims due to the video game open world that the movie creates.
Speaking of the video game open world that is created, you could tell director Shawn Levy and the producers went through a lot of effort to research modern video games and all the tiny little details and quirks that exist. For example it was a lot of fun seeing characters tea-bag someone they just killed to then a character glitching out and jumping into the wall repetitively or the obvious inclusion of Fortnite inspired dance jiggles. You also get cameos from various real-life game streamers such as Jacksepticeye and DanTDM, and I found an interview on IGN where those guys spoke about in regards to how Hollywood can never seem to get video-game-to-film adaptations right, and how they appreciated that the producers of Free Guy went to them and asked questions and actually showed interest in wanting to create a realistic feeling video game in the movie and getting the terminology right. Evidently unlike other video game adaptations Free Guy manages to succeed from the fact that it doesn’t need to replicate a specific game from real life. There are nods to certain games as I aforementioned, but otherwise they’ve created their own entire game and as such there is no expectation to impress a certain individual fan base. So in conclusion what I’m saying is that I guess Hollywood should stop trying to adapt film versions of popular video game franchises and instead do their own original stuff maybe? Then again I do want to see that Ghost of Tsushima adaptation come to life, so yes, I’ll just go and kindly shut myself up.
Taking the video game matter aside for the time being, I found Free Guy to be an absolute delight from start to finish. Well, to be exact from 20 minutes from the start to finish. Honestly when the film began I was concerned if the movie was going to turn out to be the typical “I live in a simulation” story, and though as a basis it is exactly that, there’s so much goodness thrown into the mix with funny jokes to the cameos (the cameos are to die for!) to the visuals to the music choices to the performances - the movie is such a joy to watch. Speaking of the cameos and pop culture references, Free Guy is also an interesting film outside of its narrative. This movie was in production during the time the studio that was behind it - 20th Century Fox - was being sold to a certain little known company called Disney. As such, you can tell after the studio’s transfer to Disney was complete, this film underwent some additional reshoots and last minute changes, mainly in the finale because there are certain surprises at the end of the movie that will be a geek/nerd’s wet dream and were only made possible after Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox, now known as 20th Century Studios. Personally I still have my qualms about Disney being the massive conglomerate business giant that is buying out all the other studios, but not going to lie even I got excited and jumped up like a kid in my cinema seat when a certain something happened at the end of this movie. Luckily only my lovely fiancée saw me like this as she was sitting next to me, and yes, I’m certain that me revealing my true nerd colours definitely lost me some attraction points from her, but nevertheless I don’t care, the Easter Eggs at the end of this movie are real fun!
The entire cast is top notch here. Ryan Reynolds does his usual shtick that he’s been doing ever since he found success with Deadpool, however naturally here he’s kept PG-13 and not swearing every other breath. That being said, his charm and sarcastic charisma really worked for the role of Guy, and he presented himself as really loveable and naïve and it was impossible not to like him in this film. Jodie Comer in her role has also been getting humongous praise from critics and reviewers alike, and yes, the rumours are true, she shares great on screen chemistry with Ryan Reynolds and also is proper cool and badass as to be expected. That being said I was told by a certain someone that they know someone who knows someone who knew someone who spoke to someone who said that they worked with Jodie Comer on the set of Killing Eve, and this was just some behind-the-scenes worker, and apparently in their experience they found Comer to be a real diva and challenge to work with. So that’s now me here spreading some gossip for no apparent reason besides causing a little stir and now I can move on. Joe Keery has a much bigger role in this film that the trailers made it seem, and I must say the lad has really been doing well for himself ever since his appearance in Stranger Things. Whenever I’ve see him in anything since such as Spree or Death to 2020 he’s always been wonderful to watch. Here in Free Guy he’s no different, getting to play a character who at first comes off as a villain but then is revealed to simply be a guy working for the wrong person. Speaking of that wrong person, the villain of the movie is played by none other than actor-director Taika Waititi himself, and his role is really interesting seeing as he plays the owner of this big video game business company who only cares about money and sequels over art, which I found quite ironic seeing as this movie is distributed by Disney that’s all about sequels, remakes and reboots. Just saying. Also found it funny how even though this movie marks a little reunion of sorts for Ryan Reynolds and Taika Waititi, they don’t share any scenes together which was probably for the best, as last time they worked together Green Lantern occurred. Anyway, Taika is as goofy and over-the-top as you expect him to be, and I can see him being very divisive. You’ll either find him hilarious or super annoying. However both opinions would work seeing as he’s the villain.
Free Guy is an absolute cuddly crowd-pleaser full of casual mayhem and crazy ideas, and is sure to be a welcome boost of fun in a summer that naturally lacked bigger blockbusters due to what’s happening in the world right now. However nonetheless, this and The Suicide Squad have really made a point that cinema is back, hopefully to stay.
Overall score: 9/10

Will Ryan Reynolds’ Break Delay Deadpool 3 Further?
https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
Ryan Reynolds is taking a break. Speaking with THR, Reynolds revealed that he is “trying to create a little bit more space for my family and time with them” after recently completing work on a holiday season film called Spirited with Will Ferrell for Apple TV+ (Reynolds is married to actress Blake Lively, with whom he has three daughters).
Reynolds has had a busy 2021, and will have shown up in no less than four movies by the time the year comes to an end. In addition to Spirited, he starred earlier this year in The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, the surprise summer smash Free Guy, and will also be seen in Netflix’s upcoming action comedy Red Notice alongside Dwayne Johnson and Gal Gadot.
So it’s hardly shocking that the dude wants to stay home for a while, adding that he’ll be overseeing some of his other business concerns and will “probably be away from film, or at least shooting films, till the end of the summer.” But of course that does raise one question around these parts: where does that leave Deadpool 3?
The Merc with a Mouth’s third film has been in development, more or less, since Deadpool 2 cleaned up at the box office in 2018, although its path to the screen took an unexpected turn when Disney completed its acquisition of 20th Century Fox — which owned the Deadpool franchise — in 2019.
At first the question was whether the R-rated Deadpool saga could fit inside Disney’s squarely PG-13 Marvel Cinematic Universe. But both then-Disney chairman Bob Iger and Marvel Studios overlord Kevin Feige confirmed that they wouldn’t be sanding the edges off Wade Wilson and would let him keep his R status.
No director has been named for the movie yet, but writers Lizzie Molyneux-Loeglin and Wendy Molyneux (Bob’s Burgers) were hired to pen the script after meeting with both Reynolds and the Marvel brain trust. When we asked Free Guy director Shawn Levy if he’d be interested in taking the directing gig, he avoided a direct response but called it an “enticing thought.”
With Reynolds taking his break, the Molyneux siblings tapping away at the script, and Marvel itself having a full plate at the moment, Deadpool 3 remains undated but Feige has hinted that filming could start later in 2022 — which would hopefully line up with the end of Reynold’s hiatus — with a late 2023 or early 2024 release likely if all goes well.
cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); });
Whether co-stars like Josh Brolin (Cable) and Zazie Beetz (Domino) will return to the franchise remains unknown, as does the question of when or if Deadpool will interact with the rest of the MCU or bring other X-Men into that canon for the first time. But it now seems fairly certain that none of these mysteries will get an answer until at least a year from now.
In the meantime, you can still see Reynolds in Free Guy now, and soon enough in Red Notice and Spirited. We’ll just have to wait until his wife and kids get tired of him hanging around the house for him to put on the red and black mask again…

Free Guy Almost Included A Deadpool Movie Easter Egg
Free Guy director Shawn Levy reveals that the sci-fi action comedy nearly included an Easter egg from fellow Ryan Reynolds-starrer Deadpool 2. Reynolds first brought the iconic Marvel mercenary to life on the big screen in the critically derided X-Men Origins: Wolverine before getting a proper chance to lead his own film in 2016. Deadpool proved to be a smash hit at the box office and with critics, spawning an equally successful 2018 sequel and leading to a third film entering development at Marvel Studios for the Marvel Cinematic Universe following the Disney-Fox acquisition.
Free Guy is notable for being one of the few major productions to successfully survive said acquisition after having begun development at 20th Century Fox before its 20th Century Studios rebranding. The sci-fi comedy stars Reynolds as a non-playable character of an open-world video game learning of his existence and teaming with a programmer to prevent its publisher from shutting down the game for good. Alongside Reynolds, the cast for the film includes Emmy nominee Jodie Comer, Oscar winner Taika Waititi, Stranger Things‘ Joe Keery and Get Out‘s Lil Rel Howery.
Related: Why Deadpool’s Disney Debut Was In A Non-Marvel Trailer
Levy recently spoke with IndieWire to discuss Free Guy and how the various cameos and Easter eggs came to life in the film. In looking at Reynolds and Deadpool franchise, the director revealed he and the creative team did discuss one possible Easter egg to bring in from the 2018 sequel but decided against it in favor of remaining true to the titular character’s better nature. See what Levy said below:
“Initially, there was talk of having Guy use Cable’s gun. But we actually liked the idea that this good guy character who never fires a gun in the whole movie.”
If the trailers have indicated anything about the film, it’s the sheer likability of Reynolds’ Guy and the kinder nature of his character even when facing danger and the threat of deletion. Given the popularity of his performance as Deadpool and the eagerness from fans, it’s understandable that Levy and Reynolds would consider including the character or various nods to the Marvel franchise in the film. That being said, the latter has recently confirmed he declined a Deadpool cameo in the film as he believed it wouldn’t have fit the tone or world of the story.
Based on reviews for Free Guy, both Reynolds and Levy’s thoughts on removing the Deadpool 2 cameo and Easter eggs seemed to be the right decisions. Unlike the recently-released Space Jam: A New Legacy, most critics have praised Reynolds’ film for utilizing its video game setting and Disney connections for exciting Easter eggs versus an overabundance of IP weaponization. Audiences can decide for themselves whether the Merc with a Mouth or Cable’s gun were a good fit for the film or not as Free Guy is now in theaters.

Free Guy Trailer: Ryan Reynolds is a Video Game Character Trying to Save His World
https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
Free Guy, a comedy that centers itself in a socially-distant video game virtual landscape, ironically finds itself as one of the most prominent stragglers in the dwindling group of major movies still on schedule for a theatrical release in 2020. Indeed, the December-scheduled film continues to tout its plans to hit theaters with the release of a new trailer.
Shawn Levy (Stranger Things, Real Steel) directed the film off a script by Matt Lieberman (Scoob!, The Addams Family) and Zak Penn (Ready Player One, X-Men: The Last Stand). Ryan Reynolds stars as the eponymous Guy, a suddenly self-aware NPC (non-playable character) in a fictional open world video game who, upon forming a romantic connection with a player (Jodie Comer), starts living his best (virtual) life, eventually faced with having to save his world.
On that note, check out the new Free Guy trailer just below.
A frequent observation about this film in the duration of its now-year-long buildup is that Free Guy is the product of familiar multimedia elements, notably with its open world game setting being a dead ringer of sorts for games like the Grand Theft Auto series, which are hotbeds for consequence-free wanton violence and destruction. Yet, the A.I. with a heart of a gold idea certainly stems from virtual world-set offerings such as the Tron films, and even director Steven Spielberg’s Ready Player One movie adaptation. Yet, there’s even a dash of reality-altering tropes that make Guy’s life resemble the voyeurism of The Truman Show, and the trailer even touts a scene in which he dies and abruptly respawns in bed to an alarm clock in what is likely a repeated sequence, à la Groundhog Day. However, in this case, the romance of Reynolds’s NPC and Killing Eve’s Jodie Comer role as player Molotov Girl seems to intertwine with an incredulous coder named Keys, played by Stranger Things’ Joe Keery. The main cast also features Taika Waititi as Antoine and Lil Rel Howery as Guy’s best friend, the also generically-named Buddy.
Should the film actually stick to its December release date, then Free Guy will stand as the only onscreen appearance from star Ryan Reynolds for 2020, having last been seen in last December’s Netflix actioner, 6 Underground. However, he has plenty on his docket for 2021, notably August-scheduled sequel The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, and, on a date to be revealed, will co-star in director Rawson Marshall Thurber’s Netflix comedy, Red Notice, in which he makes up an A-list triumvirate with Dwayne Johnson and Gal Gadot (and not for a DC movie hero collaboration). Of course, amongst other projects, Deadpool 3 is still on the backlog of the franchise’s new Disney overseers, albeit without a production or release window.
Free Guy Release Date
cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); });
Free Guy is set enter the non-virtual realm of theaters on December 11.
