Von New Line Cinema und HBO Max kommt 8-Bit Christmas, ein humorvoller und zu Herzen gehender Blick zurück auf die Abenteuer der Kindheit. Die Geschichte spielt in einem Vorort von Chicago in den späten 1980er Jahren und dreht sich um den zehnjährigen Jake Doyle, der alles daran setzt, das neueste und beste Videospielsystem zu Weihnachten zu bekommen.

A retro Christmas comedy about the fact that in life there are more important things than a dream phone and a console under the Christmas tree. The likeable cast and a nice atmosphere mostly disguise the fact that there wasn't much money for 8-bit Christmas, but halfway through, it starts to pick up. Unfortunately, the final change of pace and actually genre is quite dysfunctional and at best, it seems strange. But you can spend an evening with this retro affair and it won’t offend adults or kids.

I won't lie — I expected more from this one. With a title like 8-Bit Christmas, featuring Barney Stinson (who I'll always love), and a plot involving gaming consoles, I thought it would be a sure hit. While it didn't quite live up to my hopes, it did make for a nice, relaxing watch, and that counts for something. Steve Zahn nailed it as the classic dad who can’t remember anything his wife asks him to do but is always tinkering with something or grumbling about crowded malls.
