“It’s On Like Donkey Kong”: Adam Sandler’s, “PIXELS”, Barrels into Theaters this Weekend!

Adam Sandler’s latest project dips, once again into 80’s pop culture, in this action comedy about a special kind of “alien invaders”.

As kids in the 1980s, Sam Brenner (Adam Sandler), Will Cooper (Kevin James), Ludlow Lamonsoff (Josh Gad), and Eddie “The Fire Blaster” Plant (Peter Dinklage) saved the world thousands of times – at 25 cents a game in the video arcades. Now, they’re going to have to do it for real. In Pixels, when intergalactic aliens discover video feeds of classic arcade games and misinterpret them as a declaration of war, they attack the Earth, using the video games as the models for their assaults — and now-U.S. President Cooper must call on his old-school arcade friends to save the world from being destroyed by PAC-MAN, Donkey Kong, Galaga, Centipede, and Space Invaders.

Sandler’s fight against the invaders is assisted by Kevin James, Michelle Monaghan, Peter Dinklage and Brian Cox.
