Have you ever played or heard of Grand Theft Auto or GTA? The movie takes place in an open-world
desktop video game called Free City, where players can take part in action-packed missions
like spy jobs or bank robberies in order to gain money and level up their characters.
The strongest characters in the game are obviously the ones with sunglasses because they are
controlled by real players. To support the storyline of the game, the developer also
created non-playable characters or we call it NPC. An NPC is a character that is not
controlled by a real player, instead it is programmed to do certain daily activities
in the game. And of course, an NPC cannot die.
Among the many non-playable characters in the game, there is Guy, a NPC who is programmed
to be a bank teller in the game and unaware that his world is a video game. He works and
spends most of his time with his best friend Buddy, who works as security in the bank.
The pair works in the bank that will always be robbed by real players and they always
have to play the part of helpless bank employees as they get robbed.
On the other side, there is a sunglasses character called Molotov Girl, who is making a deal
with another player for a coordinate of a safe house that keeps a video that contains
top secret information. Later on, as Guy and Buddy on their way to home, they suddenly
walk past her. Guy seems surprised as she sings the song he says his dream girl will
like. He comments on the song, which surprises the girl because she is used to hearing all
the phrases each NPC has to say. Because of that, Guy begins to deviate from his programming
and follows where The Molotov Girl goes. But unfortunately, he is hit by a train, sending
him back to his home and having to start his boring daily activities again.
The next day, when the robbery takes place in the bank, Guy sees the girl he met yesterday
and starts to rebel. He tries to fight back and manages to grab the sunglasses from the
robber. When he puts them on, he finally discovers many features of the game that supposedly
only appear to real players. He sees a first aid kit floating. He casually goes near the
kit and looks at a businessman sitting next to it. Guy points to what looks like nothing
And Ask him if he can see it. the businessman looks at him like he's crazy and walks off.
Guy takes off the sungalsses and the kit isn't there. Puts them back on and it is still there,
clear as day. He touches the first aid and the kit disappears with a glowing light floats
up his body healing all his wounds. While Walking guy sees a dead player and sees money
floating. Guy appraches the stack of money and touches it. And the money status bar on
his glassess jumps by two thousand dollars. Guy Goes to the ATM and checks his balance.
Sure enough - he has TWO THOUSAND more dollars in his account than he did few minutes ago.
In the real world, Keys and Mouser, who work at Soonami, a company that runs Free City,
detect Guy's weird activities and suspect that he is a hacker who uses NPC skin to take
down other players. To resolve the problem, they decide to go into the game as their avatars
to confront Guy. Then they enter the game and meets guy who has brought his favourite
shoes with huge amount of money. As they closes in Guy runs deep into the construction site
and they follows him. Then guy notices a button on his new shoes which can help him jump far.
Then he presses the button and use it to go far from them. At first time he loses his
balance because it was his first time. And he does not know how to control it, and the
same time the police and rabbit was closing in and starts to fire at him. Guy tries to
run away from there and he learns to control the shoes. He jumps to the highest level of
the building. Unfortunately his shoes battey is out. They keep chasing after him. Guy tries
to escape by grabbing onto a wrecking ball, but he misses and falls. Luckily, he manages
to save himself with a bubble suit. However, The employees find him and hit him with the
police car, thinking they have taken the “hacker out for good. Keys feels something strange
as the number of online players did not change even after they killed him, indicating that
it wasn't a hacker.
Suddenly, an interview of Keys with Millie in earlier years is displayed, discovering
Keys and Millie are the masterminds behind the Free City before Antwan, owner of Soonami
Company, stole their original code from Life Itself game - a game which was originally
developed by Keys and Millie - and used that code to build Free City franchises. Surprisingly,
Millie is the player behind The Molotov Girl character. Millie visits Keys and asks him
to help her get evidence of Antwan's crimes because she knows the proof of their stolen
code is hidden in a safe house, which she is going to infiltrate while playing as Molotov
Girl.
Later on, Guy approaches Molotov Girl outside the safe house. The house guards spot them
and start shooting at them, so they have to flee. Guy offers to help her in her mission,
but it is impossible as he is only at level 1, while she is already at level 195. Guys
then starts taking on missions and pulls off several heroic acts like returning stolen
money and pulling kids away from traffic. Because of his uniqueness, players in real
life start to notice him and Guy suddenly goes viral with his unique nickname called
“The Blue Shirt Guy”. He even shows up as an answer on one of America's Quiz Show,
Jeopardy. Long story short, he manages to reach level 102.
The next day, Guy comes to the bank and persuades Buddy to join him after stealing sunglasses
from a player who is doing a heist mission at the bank, but Buddy refuses to do so because
he thinks it is too dangerous. Antwan realizes the popularity of Guy and wants his employees
to keep Guy on the game. Additionally, The company is also going to launch Free City
2 in two days, despite not being fully coded and still contains bugs, and he makes it worse
by telling Keys that the game is not backward compatible with the first game, meaning that
most of the characters will not be able to be played in the Free City 2.
The Molotov Girl goes back to the safe house and manages to take the stolen code. But,
she is confronted by the house's guards and gets cornered. Out of nowhere, suddenly Guy
crashes through on a motorcycle and helps her to eliminate the guards before escaping
by using a hang glider. After the event, the two hang out and Guy surprisingly manages
to guess The Molotov Girl's favourite ice cream flavour, which is bubblegum ice cream.
She is impressed because nobody likes that flavour and he manages to guess it right.
It's just like Guy knows everything about this Molotov Girl. They end up kissing before
Millie disconnects from the game. Keys finally realizes there is something strange about
the codes of the Free City's NPCs. He tells Millie that Guy is not controlled by a hacker,
instead he is the first living AI which could be able to decide his own path.This proves
that Antwan has stolen their code and implemented it to the Free City, because their main idea
for the game was to have the NPCs grow and develop over time as they adapt, and that
is what Guy has been doing recently. He also warns Millie that the current world of Free
City will be completely erased when the Free City 2 is launched, which is 48 hours from
now. Thus, they decide to ask Guy's help. Millie goes back to the game as Molotov Girl.
She reveals to Guy that he is just a character in a video game who does not exist in real
life and he will be completely deleted if he doesn't help Millie. After knowing the
truth, Guy feels so sad and runs to the beach. There, he realizes that something is hidden
behind the beach and he decides to help the Molotov Girl.
Guy then asks Buddy to go with him to the safe house, where the stolen code is kept.
But surprisingly, the guard`s real player is a big fan of Guy and is very excited to
meet him. He basically lets Guy rob him and take what he wants, even asking Guy to kill
him, but Guy refuses the request. He later brings the file to Millie. On the other hand,
Guy's popularity has risen sharply, even popular streamers in real life like Poki mane, Dan
TDM and Ninja are talking about him! Knowing about that, Antwan gets pissed off and thinks
that Guy's presence in the game will hurt the Free City 2's sales.
Mouser suggests to reboot the system, so that Guy will get back to its default form. In
the game, Guy and Millie manage to access the file, showing an island which proves that
Antwan really stole their code. Guy claims that he has seen this island, but doesnt remember
when or where. The game then is successfully rebooted before he can tell where he saw it
to Millie.
Millie manages to get back into the game after the reboot, but Guy doesn't remember who she
is as he is already back to his default setting. She asks Keys for help, and he tells her that
Guy is created to always be searching for his dream girl, and he just needs something
to help trigger the code. Molotov Girl decides to kiss Guy and it brings back all his memories,
including where he saw the island. It turns out that the image of it is reflected off
the blinds in his apartment. Because of that, Keys figures out that the island is just hidden
beyond the city's horizon. Guy and Millie then gather all the NPCs in the game and tell
them that there is an island across the city that allows them to move and act freely instead
of what they were coded to do. The speech inspires all the NPCs and they start to move
at their own will. With all the NPCs gone, the players are left
confused. Mouser then shows Antwan a recording of Guy and Millie taking the secret file at
the safe house. Antwan then realizes that Millie is involved and orders Mouser to kill
them and kick them out from the game. Mouser uses his power as the game developer to destroy
Guy and Millie as Guy is driving them outside the city. With the help of Keys, a ramp suddenly
pops out and they manage to escape. They arrive at the beach, but Keys gets caught and fired
from the company. Before he leaves Antwan room, Keys launches his last help to the pair.
He creates a bridge for them so that they can cross the sea safely. On the other side,
Antwan orders Mouser to boot the game, which disconnects Molotov Girl and all the players
from the game, but Keys secretly conducts a live broadcasting of Guy to all Free City
players, so that they can still be able to watch him despite being disconnected from
the game. Furthermore, Antwan also commands his employees to deploy DUDE, a bigger, stronger,
but dumber version of Guy who is not fully programmed, but it is the final weapon of
Antwan to get rid of Guy. Buddy arrives to help while Guy gets tossed around by DUDE.
Before receiving the final blow, Guy manages to pick up sunglasses and deploy a Captain
America's shield, which surprises Chris Evans who is watching it live in a cafe. He also
manages to deploy a Hulk's fist, and a lightsaber. However, Dude is too strong and keeps beating
Guy until he puts the glasses on Dude, who now is able to see the world as Guy does and
starts dancing randomly. Guy and Buddy then start running toward the
island. Antwan starts to lose it and brings Mouser to the server room, where he plans
to destroy the server and delete the game entirely. Mouser stops helping Antwan when
he figures out that Antwan was really stealing the code from Keys, so Antwan begins to destroy
everything with an axe, causing the city environment to be deleted, including the bridge. Unfortunately,
Buddy can't make it to the end and is deleted from the game, but he tells Guy that he has
had the best day of his life because of Guy. Guy runs and finally breaks through the barriers
and makes it to the island, which is then revealed to all the NPCs and the players in
the real world. Millie then confronts Antwan in the server
room and makes a deal with him. She will let Antwan keep the Free City name for sequels
and spin-offs, but Antwan has to let her have the original code of the game and stop destroying
the server. Soon, Free City 2 is launched, but the sales slump because of numerous bugs
and lagging online play, resulting in Antwan being kicked out from the company. On the
other side, Millie, Keys and Mouser develop Free Life which brings all NPCs from Free
City to there. Millie then watches a recording of Keys explaining that Guy's character is
always going to fall in love with Molotov Girl because he created the algorithm based
on Keys own love to Millie. She realizes this and decides to approach Keys and kiss him.
Back in the game, Guy and Dude finally become friends and surprisingly Buddy is brought
back to life in the game and they reunite.
