Fun to Watch and Left Me Smiling
8 January 2024
I don't play video games and I never watched this show when it was on, so I was a little lost at the beginning because there isn't a lot of context for viewers in this particular instance. I came by this documentary because I'm a fan of Film Threat Magazine, which produced it. The story assumes you know what the show is and who the hosts are. This isn't a terrible sticking point because the titles tell you up front that this is, "for the fans and by the fans." So, I stuck with it, keeping that in mind. As the movie goes on you do learn all about both the show and the people involved, leaving you with a real sense of affection for them by the end. It's clear that the Attack of the Show was something special for the fans and the creators. You have fun watching highlights and being taken back to a time before the internet changed everything. It was also cool for me, as someone who had been going to Comic-Con since before it blew up to watch footage of a time and place I lived through. I remember that two-story G4 podium even though I wasn't really aware of what was going on there because I had different focuses at the time. Ultimately, it was an extremely entertaining documentary that will leave you feeling energized with a smile on your face. Whether you know the show or not, it's a recommend from me.
