T here’s a moment in the highly entertaining movie Boss Level where the hero, Roy (played by Frank Grillo), and his 11-year-old son are mooching around a pop-up retro- aming arcade, stuffed with old coin-op classics such as Pac-Man, Street Fighter, and so on. At one point the boy is watching Roy wrestle intently with the controls of an arcade cabinet we don’t see, and he asks why his father likes this particular game so much. “’Cause there’s a lot of people that chase you, and you get to kill them,” Roy replies.
