I first watched this movie when I was about ten. If you liked Tron, then you would like this. It has a killer ending to boot, the kind of twists that you don't see in the high action movies today.

This review is from: Arcade [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a harmless little sci-fi for pre-teens that mom and dad can scan at any time and see no sex and only a touch or two of violence grace the screen. The plot and pseudo-science are of the leave-your-brain-at-home variety while the graphics are nothing special. The direction is slow, clear and undistinguished. The photography is pedestrian, but not bad. The cast is cute, led by the beautiful Megan Ward.

She is demure and fully clothed as a teenaged heroine who saves her boy friend and pals from an evil virtual-reality game gone amuck. The fact that she was 23-years-old at the time and a little too old for the part did not bother me at all. Her fresh face and great beauty allowed me to watch the whole thing!

The once vampish Sharon Farrell has a small part as the star's mom which she plays flawlessly with just a touch of irony.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Game Wants To Play With You!!!!!!!!, June 24, 2002

A revolutionary game is waiting to play with you. ARCADE transports players into an incredible world of virtual reality where any adventure is possible and your wildest imagination takes on electric flesh. The kids are dying to play it. But ARCADE is not fun and games. It's powered by a demonic soul whose intention is not only to beat those who play, but to imprison them in a hellish oblivion.
When several friends mysteriously disappear, it is Alex (Megan Ward, Encino Man) who suspects the terrifying truth. With the help of her friend Nick (Peter Billingsley, A Christmas Story), Alex decides to enter ARCADE in a heroic effort to rescue their friends. As Alex journeys through the games' seven levels, she encounters a lethal chrome dragon, crosses a sea of darkness, and endures enough terror to test her sanity. Filled with stunning computer effects, ARCADE will take you on a thrilling ride into a realm where you can kiss reality goodbye.
