Editor’s note: Our short take on Free Guy (2021): It leans into its Comedy, Adventure, Science Fiction roots without feeling derivative. Shawn Levy keeps the storytelling tight, favoring character beats over empty flash. Standout turns from Ryan Reynolds, Jodie Comer, Lil Rel Howery keep it engaging even in quieter stretches. The 1h 55m runtime suits the material; scenes land without dragging. Solid if imperfect—its strengths outweigh a few rough edges. “Life's too short to be a background character.” sums up the film’s focus better than most trailers do. Worth a watch for the craft alone, even beyond the genre appeal.
