Review of Gamer

Gamer (2009)
5/10
A couple good actors in 1 bad movie.
7 August 2010
Wow, I was really disappointed in this movie.From the trailers, this looks like a hard-core action movie that promises graphic violence and maybe good performances.At least the violence is graphic.Everything else is pretty much rubbish.I liked Gerard butler in underrated movies like "The Ugly Truth" and "Law Abiding Citizen". Allison Lohman was terrific in "Drag Me To Hell". Ludicrous is a good rapper.All of these people are in the wrong movie.Gerard Butler is the main character yet there's no humanism in his character.He seems like he never wanted to do this role but only accepted it for money.Money is 1 waste this movie offers.It offers poor performances, uninteresting story, and Terry Crews.What happened Terry? You were great in movies like "Idiocracy" and even "White Chicks" and now you should be ashamed of yourself."Gamer" is simply a waste of 85 minutes and good actors.It had potential, but it just sucked.It could make a cool video game, but as a movie, it's a real let down.I pray to God and Hollywood that there will be no "Gamer 2".
