When alien attackers mistake an old video-game recording for a declaration of war, they send giant arcade characters to challenge Earth. The military recruits former gaming experts to understand the enemies and help defend major cities in this colorful action-comedy.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want goofy, nostalgic popcorn entertainment with classic arcade references; Not for you if you prefer sharp comedy, realistic action, or richly developed characters.
