Somewhat innovative
The Good:
Sandbox movie making gameplay, the ability to create your own movies, great tycoon type gameplay, ok graphics, somewhat funny radio D.Js, overall fun if your into this type of thing, ability to keep playing after the game actually ends, everything has a comical aura to it, can make your movies into WMV movies to post on the internet, can add your own voice to movies.
The Bad:
Not much gameplay if your not into this type of game, not enough people to hire (you sometimes need to adjust workers to fill in different jobs), actors can be a pain to please (just like in real life), that stupid aging actor mechanic (actors age and need to retire), movie making is too restrictive to what scenes can go into the movie. Replay value drops to nothing if you are not into the movie making side of it.
This game is nice. And the DVD verson comes with some extras (nothing special). The game can be fun if you are willing to let it take you in. If not then by all means avoid it like the plague!!!!!!!!!
