Director: Steven Spielberg Writer: Zak Penn, Ernest Cline Starring: Tye Sheridan, Olivia Cooke, Ben Mendelsohn Released: March 29, 2018 Rating: Runtime: 140 minutes Websites: Story: In the year 2045, the real world is a harsh place. The only time Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan) truly feels alive is when he escapes to the OASIS, an immersive virtual universe where most of humanity spends their days. In the OASIS, you can go anywhere, do anything, be anyone - the only limits are your own imagination. The OASIS was created by the brilliant and eccentric James Halliday (Mark Rylance), who left his immense fortune and total control of the Oasis to the winner of a three-part contest he designed to find a worthy heir. When Wade conquers the first challenge of the reality-bending treasure hunt, he and his friends - aka the High Five - are hurled into a fantastical universe of discovery and danger to save the OASIS.
