You're in the Movies is a party video game for Xbox 360, developed by Zoë Mode and published by Codemasters in North America and the PAL territories in 2008,[1][2] and in Australia and Japan in 2009.

[3] Players perform actions such as applying make-up, jogging in place, driving a car and playing volleyball, which are filmed using the Xbox Live Vision camera and assembled into a movie.

Players must complete mini-games by mimicking actions that will appear in a movie trailer, in the context of various science fiction, thriller, and adventure stories.

Afterwards, players have to do a series of pick-up shots by assuming various facial expressions for the camera, such as an evil grin or a look of intense concentration.

[4] The movie themes and mini-games were conceived by the creative design team, who wanted to evoke a B-movie atmosphere.

[8] Hollywood star Burt Reynolds fronted a series of TV and magazine advertising spots for the game in 2008.

[19] Nate Ahearn from IGN, who gave the game a 4.2/10, referred to the Vision Camera as "an annoyance" that "handcuffs the entire experience".

Nate also criticized the pacing and the activities, which he called "boring", stating: "You're in the Movies is bad, no matter how many beers you’ve consumed throughout the night".

He concluded: "Despite the pack-in camera, the problems of You're in the Movies drag this would-be game down, making the $60 price tag much too high to justify.

[13] Eurogamer's Dan Whitehead was the harshest on the game, which he gave a score of 2/10, stating that "people don't live in movie studios.
