I picked up this game 2 or 3 weeks ago, and I was totally taken by it's uniqueness. The concept of playing a movie has been tried only a few times before but it seems to have been best realised here.
However....I think the reviewer is being a bit generous. The graphics aren't amazing, they're good but not great and some of the character animation is rather awkward. Also the controls aren't as intuitive as a normal 3rd person game, with so many changing camera points you can end up going round in circles for minutes trying to do something as simple as open a cupboard door or pick up a remote control.

Overall though a fine fine game.
