I play pinball in leagues and competitions and I'm very aware of the history of pinball and how it was illegal in most major cities and was very aware of who Roger, Josh, and Zach are. I was excited for this movie to release but I honestly had that feeling this was going to be one of those things that only those that are into pinball would enjoy -- I'm pleased to find I was extremely wrong. This is a highly entertaining movie done in a way that I've seen few (if any) documentaries play out and on top of the narrative style it's extremely informative and uses the law's lack of a major plot as a way to kind of drive the movie (trust me, it makes sense when you watch it). I came away learning so much more about Roger and a whole new texture to what happened to reverse the illegality of pinball in NYC (and start the reaction across the nation). This is certainly a film I am recommending to anyone including those outside of my pinball circle and one that I suggest you take a shot on.
