At the Movies – April 5

GREENFIELD — “Ready Player One” is both futuristic science-fiction and a blast from the past as most of humanity — living inside a virtual reality world called the Oasis — works to solve a mystery and win a game designer’s entire fortune. The past comes in the form of 1980s touchstones throughout the play of the game from the Iron Giant to a segment that takes place inside the original movie of “The Shining.” “Ready Player One,” featuring Simon Pegg in a supporting role, is rated PG-13, and is showing now at the Legacy 9, 2347 W. Main St. Visit legacycinema.com for more information.
