If you were turned on to this game because you played and enjoyed Lionhead's 'The Movies', read on. If not, read a review about this game specifically instead.

This is not what we wanted, not what we thought we'd get. We thought we were getting a spiritual successor to Lionhead Studios' 'The Movies'. That why I bought it sight unseen. This is also why I'm getting my £25 back. This is not The Movies, not even slightly. This game has none of the charm or humour of what you're probably looking for. None of the customisation, none of the frustration of an alcohol addicted actor acting up, dallying by the diner with a drug distracted director - Whilst in the background a janitor calmly sweeps the path around a massed entourage on their phones and preening the disgruntled stars. And you still need your scriptwriters to finish up 'Amazing Flying Warzone 3' as reviews tank your latest comedy..

Speaking of which:
This is a clinical and scripted experience that doesn't even feel like a sandbox beyond the random name generator for hiring actors/staff.

I had to stop, I can't play this any longer, I have to go and play The Movies instead.

Luck to you, Aternis Level 0, or possibly 1. Make a great tycoon game. The Movies - this ain't.

Again if you read this NOT looking for something like The Movies, ignore it (But you should probably play that!).

Looked interesting, but I'll never find out. Doesn't work.

If it was just crap I'd keep it and shrug, gambled £1.59 and lost.

But it just won't run on a way over-spec machine.

Refunded.
