I saw the series first and i really like it. The shorter movie has some plot holes and glosses over the story. I like both sets of actors but I prefer the series. The movie has a more realistic set and the series has a more romatic and stylized set. Watch the movie first. Both are on Netflix (07/2019) with subtitles.

OK but 30 episode series is much better
Short, lighthearted non complicated movie for teenagers.
Better than the series but still pretty average.
I have watched the show before of this movie and struggled a lot to even finish it. Was so dumb and childish, I couldn't believe it.
By my surprise this one is better but obviously doesn't have enough time to go in depth to any of the storylines.
So you don't get attached with any of the characters, everything happens fast and it's quite superficial.
I think this is an ideal movie for kids and teenagers, good enough acting, a bit of lighthearted romance, some fun effects with the vídeo game scenes and effects.
Entertaining enough for a quick movie night with friends.
Missed opportunity
So after watching the series I went straight to the movie. Some people said to prefer it but I really don't. I have no problem with the leads but the story is completely disjointed by the speed they're trying to tell it at and all the details they omitted. For me, this one isn't even worth it for the cheap thrill of experiencing the story when I don't have time to rewatch the entire series, because it just does not deliver the feels or tells the story well enough. Regretfully, not recommended. I'd say watch the series or read the novel, which is absolutely excellent.
