Uno: The Movie

I arrived home from work, exhausted from a long day, and noticed a video in my YouTube subscription box titled "Uno: The Movie". I scoffed at the thumbnail, Hollywood has officially run out of ideas! With a cynical smirk on my face, I decided to click on the video, thinking I was to see the death of cinema occur right before my eyes.

From the moment the video started to the moment it ended, I found myself captivated by the story, characters, and cinematography. Coworkers trapped in a room together until they finish a 500-point round of the classic card game "Uno", but with some sadistic rules added. As the hours wore on, I could feel the character's desperation to finish the game- almost as if they were actually playing a three-hour game of Uno. The camera angles used to show us each player's hand makes the viewer feel as if they were actually playing the game themselves.

With a stunning cast, crew, and soundtrack, I predict a complete sweep at next year's Oscars for this breathtaking film. "Uno: The Movie" did not kill cinema, it brought it back to life.
