The main cast definitely seem to be having fun in their roles:

• Ryan Reynolds is his usual charming self, but there's this great, wide-eyed innocence to the titular Guy that elevates his performance.

• Jodie Comer (from Killing Eve) as Millie and Joe Keery (from Stranger Things) as Keys both start off feeling a little hollow, but as the story picks up you realize that their characters are both feeling that way themselves - Guy is the spark that actually lets their characters grow.
• Taika Waititi is a great send-up of all the bad-boy game executives we loathe IRL from places like Riot, Rockstar, and Blizzard; he does a great job of being simultaneously a mustache twirling villain and a man with his head fully inserted up his own ass - it's delightful.

• There are a host of cameos throughout the movie - some are great gags, but a fair few are there to actually add some legitimacy to the proceedings (though I suspect it will definitely date the film in a few years as some of those folks fade into obscurity - you'll know who I mean when you see them).

• Even the supporting cast has some great moments, though Buddy (played by Lil Rel Howery) definitely steals a more than a few scenes.

Overall this film has a great story with good direction and a wonderful cast. There are some really enjoyable moments sprinkled throughout the film. Jodie's character Mille had my favorite one & even though it was spoiled by a commercial it still made me lol in the moment.

Right now I think it's only in theaters because of some streaming rights issues - TL:DR this was made prior to the Disney/Fox merger and Fox had sold the streaming rights to Warner, so there's that. If you feel comfortable seeing it in theaters, then it's worth it IMHO - the place I went wasn't very crowded. If you don't, then it probably won't be too long before you can catch it elsewhere.
