The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters

I had The King of Kong sitting in my apartment for weeks now and just hadn't got around to watching it until this weekend and I am so glad I did. It focuses on the rivalry between legendary gamer, Billy Mitchell and outsider family man, Steve Wiebe as they compete to top each other's scores at the old school arcade game, Donkey Kong. It was really endearing, funny and totally interesting. I am by no means a gamer but this movie was so well done and even if you don't know anything about gaming at all, totally riveting.
