Game Crash

I just got home from seeing the movie Gamer. It wasn't all it was cracked up to be. It's obviously a movie targeted at male gamers. It basically involves two games, Society (which is incredibly similar to Second Life) and Slayers (like a real version of Call of Duty 4). Now I like Gerard Butler and Ludacris but this movie really wasn't great. Sure, the action was cool and I did enjoy the nudity but other than that the plot seemed flimsy and not very original. It's like some hollywood screenwriter took all gamers for murder-loving sexual deviants. Given there are some of those out there but that doesn't mean we should all be generalized like that. Also it seemed even more gender biased when you notice that they didn't show one female gamer and the one female character of the game dies shortly after we're introduced to her. So, in summary, this movie isn't really worth seeing in theaters, and not really worth renting either. It gets a 3/10.
