Finally got round to watching "King of Kong - a Fistful of Quarters". Good documentary, and certainly a must-see for anyone who grew up on arcade games in the early 80s. But I think I expected a bit more from the movie after reading so much about it.... a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 97% had led me to expect something on the level of "Crumb" or "Grizzly Man", but I didn't really think the movie touched on any deeper subjects, and we didn't really get under the skin of any of the people in it. So... a good and fun documentary about classic video games, nothing more.
