Why Watch This

The CinePearl Take
Tulis crafts a brisk, almost kinetic narrative that mirrors the fast‑paced arcade battles he’s chronicling. The documentary shines when it lets the rival CEOs speak for themselves, exposing their hubris and vision without heavy-handed narration. While some moments feel like a rapid montage, the thematic focus on innovation versus greed stays clear, making the film both an entertaining story and a cautionary business lesson.
