Rise of the eSports Hero Audience Reviews

Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
sebarciszewski I've been loosely associated with the video game world for many years and have always paid a bit of attention to the rise of eSports as a major form of competitive entertainment. There are YouTube channels with millions of followers whose subscribers spend hours and hours watching these competitive gamers play. Rise of the eSports hero is the most accurate portrayal of this world that I've ever seen. If you have any interest in the world of professional gaming, the rising salaries these pro gamers make, and the surprising amount of politics and competitiveness that comes with it, this documentary takes you inside arguably the best professional gaming team in the world. I should also mention that the production value of this documentary is top-notch.
