I want to be a Director

by   shopaholic_man ,  Feb 20, 2006
Pros: The game is very detailed, with a lot you can do, including making movies.
Cons: The menus are not always intuitive, and there are some functions left out.
The Bottom Line: The game is very in depth, and allows you a great deal of control, however, it's the little things that keep this game from getting a full five stars.
Review: The Movies is a simulation game that allows you to run your own movie studio. You decide everything from what buildings to put on your lot, what sets to buy, what actors and directors to hire, what movies to shoot, when to release them, its all ...

"Alright Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close up"

by   l5791chen ,  Apr 22, 2008
Pros: the director scenario
Cons: the executive scenario
The Bottom Line: The Movies was a game that had the potential to be great but fell short of the mark. Too many glitches and flaws in the game play process.
Review: The Movies was highly anticipated when the concept was introduced. It was ingenious on paper. Being a movie mogul and making real interactive movies. It had the potential to be the next Sims or Roller Coaster Tycoon. When I bought the game, I had my ...
