Although some of the promotional posters for Ready Player One were getting a lot of hate online, it looks like the reaction out of SXSW for Ready Player One's world premiere is positive.

Or, at least, it's mostly positive. Almost all reviews note the endless references to '80s pop culture and Spielberg's own work - there's a few Jurassic Park references - and the crowd reaction seemed to be positive, too. However, some felt that the constant nods and winks were thrown into often.

So far, Variety, THR and IndieWire have all given reasonably positive reviews - and here's some of the Twitter reactions to go along with them.
