I had read so many negative reviews about the gamer movie that, after seeing it, I even liked it and everything. Although, yes, the end there is no where to catch it.
The directors of this film, Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, place us in the not too distant future, where the population is increasingly closed in on itself due to the rise of games where other real human beings can be controlled, such as the Society game, taking the idea of The Sims to the highest level because you can control a real human.
In addition, the creator of this game, a computer visionary, has also created another game where human beings can be controlled in a Shooter type game, called Slayers. The human-guinea pigs participating in this game are criminals who are awaiting execution, being forced to play with the excuse that if a certain number of games are still alive, they will win their freedom. This game has very high audience levels and is seen by almost the entire population.
The first part of the gamer movie It is the best of it with the presentation of the future, the different games and the main actor, a Gerard Butler, who desperately seeks to survive to be reunited with his wife and daughter.
However, once the protagonist escapes from the game and meets a group of freaks who want to free the world from the nightmare created by the all-powerful businessman, played Michael C Hall, the film is losing quality until the final fight between hero and villain most regrettable that one remembers seeing seen in theaters.
La gamer movie I recommend it, above all, to the youngest who have enjoyed games like The Sims and Call of Duty. They will love the first part of the movie too.
