    Oh this is so so so great

    I saw it with my wife as I play the god of war and I really enjoy the documentary and the story they tell and the problems they have and how they solve In two or three scen I almost cry and enjoy how grat this game could be play the game and watch this to understand what is the masterpiece game!!

    Santa Monica Studios, Reborn.

    They had a very hard task at hand: Transforming a beloved character without destroying it. Revitalizing a franchise without leaving an ugly scar. Making it grow without having it fall apart.

    Bringing something special to life is a very painful process and it's nice to see how much effort, and passion, and frustration it takes to craft a literal game-changer.

    Had in tears near the end

    This documentary really moved me ,as someone who has always appreciated the art of video games and work that goes into them but never really been into them,something about god of war caught my eye,I don't own a PlayStation so I can't even play this game,but simply because of how much i love the idea of this game. I decided too check out this documentary on the game,and I was In tears,too see the development team fall from grace and doubt themselves troughout the entire process,too being one of the highest rated and most celebrated games in history was incredibly moving,you get to learn about these people over the two hours and you see the constant struggle and this documentary does an outstanding job of humanizing developers,not just of video games but films,tv shows,books,etc.a lot of people see the people who put the time and effort into creating a product as nothing more then that....they are seen as someone who creates a product,not necessarily as human beings with struggles,this movie humanized them and it was incredible too see the payoff.
