Major Grom: The Game feels cluttered. This film tries to do too much, getting so tangled up in its varied story elements and exposition, it looses any clear sense of direction. The results a rather busy, somewhat frustrating watch there never really goes anywhere terribly interesting, with a thoroughly anti-climatic ending. Its a shame too, as there are some good ideas on show, acting and action is polished and CGI top notch. In summary, had the script taken a cleaner, simple approach, setting limits on the diverse aspects of this story, then this could have worked extremely well. As it stands it feels cluttered and anti climatic. Suffice to say, a rather mediocre watch.
