Geimu (2020)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Looking for a challenge, Emi, an impetious gamer enlists her pal Hiroshi to illegally hack her VR game console together with her AI device so that she can play in a fully AI created VR game world. At first it appears to be a typical RPG (role playing game) set in medieval Japan with plenty of action, but bizarre events begin to take place, and she gets separated from Hiroshi. Will Emi prevail and escape with her life or does the AI have other plans...?

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
