a5c7b9f00b Ken Castle is extremely rich, popular and powerful since he invented and started exploiting the virtual online parallel reality games, in which people can either payuser or be paid'actor' in a system of mind-control. The ultimate version, Slayers, fields death row convictsgladiators in a desperate dim bid for survival, which no-one made yet. The champion, John 'Kable' Tillman, was scheduled to die just before he'ld gain release, but he persuades his teenage 'handler' to hand over the reins so he can fully use his talents and experience. Thus Kable escapes to freedom, only to be chased illegally by Castle's men, yet fights back all the way to his HQ and challenges his evil hidden plans.
In a future mind-controlling game, death row convicts are forced to battle in a 'Doom'-type environment. Convict Kable, controlled by Simon, a skilled teenage gamer, must survive thirty sessions in order to be set free. Or won't he?
Well, this has been the longest 90 minute movie I've ever watched. I kept looking at the time, justifying that if I would just stop now, I wouldn't have wasted too much on it.<br/><br/>First off, I'll give it a bit of credit for the premise. From an objective standpoint it's fairly interesting (story spoiler): nanotechnological cells replace the actual brain cells, allowing the brain to be controlled by other people. (A similar technologyin Surrogates, except in Gamer the people aren't prettified avatars of real people, but volunteers/death-row inmates that let others control them.) Then, add the guy that designed the whole system and is playing his own game into the mix, and you have a story. Sort of. I guess.<br/><br/>Those between, say, 18 to 30, you might find the tech premise behind the movie interesting, regardless of its depiction. The premise isn't horribly done, it's just. . .horrible. (I'm 19 and was able to identify with a lot of the 'gaming ambiance' in this movie. It's something this generation was brought up with and the movie does an okay job of making it futuristic.)<br/><br/>Most astonishingly, I think this has been the most ethically, morally, humanly disgusting movie I have ever seen. I don't know how else to put it. Another reviewer described itbeing written by a horny 13 year old. In my opinion, that 13 year old must also have been a sadist paired with who knows what other psychological problems. (Or moviegoers in general love senseless gore and womanizing. I'm not sure there's really a line anymore.) This is why I voted it a 3. The tech aspect is almost the only reason to sit through this movie, and that's challenged by how hard it is to continue watching it at all.<br/><br/>If it's any consolation, the story ends on an okay note with respect to the dignity of humankind.<br/><br/>But I still don't think it's worth anyone's 90 minutes.<br/><br/>(Not even to watch Logan Lerman, which was how I found the movie and sort of the main reason I decided to watch it. This has been a reminder that good actors doesn't always mean good movies.)
This movie is a must see for any fan of action movies, or of Gerard Butler. The action scenes are very intense, so much so that watching this movie without 5.1 would be a waste. There are some graphic scenes, and not a movie for kids, but the movie has a very interesting idea, and is not a by the numbers action movie in any way. The movie also has some interesting twists and turns, but does not void the plot, unlike some other movies released over the past few years. If you have stayed away thinking this is another Crank type mayhem movie, it is not, and if the action scenes were toned down, the story would not suffer in any way. **Spoiler Alert** I originally found the ending disappointing, but very soon after I came to really like it. It is to the point, no 5 minute speeches, no dumbed down explanations for those who missed the point, it just gets to where its going without several detours, which we seldom see these days.
For long stretches of the PlayStation-minded Gamer, the action does drag.
Gamers is based on a screenplay by written and directed by American film-makers Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, who also co-directed the movie. John Tillman is his real name. The name "Kable" was given to him since he was in the Slayers game. The Nanites actually replace existing brain cells, probably those in the motor cortex, which control movement. People who have them are able to think and feel but not move on their own. The nanites are able to receive information from a transmitter and can send out any information they see or hear. They cannot be removed without killing the person.It is explained that the US prisons were so overcrowded, they were on the verge of bankruptcy. Castle's company provided funding in exchange for using the prisoners for his game, having made his fortune with the game Society. Also, there was a vote, and 68% of Americans voted in favor of using prisoners for sport. Given the film's timeline, it appears that (a) Kable was jailed, (b) his wife was unemployed for a time, © Child services took away their daughter and placed her in foster care, and (d) the only job she could get was in Society in a bid to regain custody of their daughter. However, later in the film, it is revealed that Castle may have influenced events. Partly. Indeed a petrol engine car can run on a mixture of ethanol (i.e. drinking alcohol) and gasoline. A car today needs about an 85% mixture of gasoline to ethanol to run. In terms of the movie, this means the truck is running because there is already some gas in the tank. However, a car needs a special carburetor to run with only ethanol instead of gasoline, and common potable ethanol is not flammable enough to run an engine, even with the special carburetor. Fuel-grade ethanol is usually 100% ethanol, while beer and wine are around 8% by volume, regular "hard" drinks have 40% (80 proof), and very few drinks have 75% (~151 proof). It's possible that what Kable drank was well-over 151 proof, but the effect upon his senses and motor function would've been severe, especially given the intense physical activity which likely sped up his metabolism. (The drink could've been spiked with medication that slows down metabolism, but that's reaching and also contradicts the point of urinating into the fuel tank.) Therefore, the truck in Gamer should not be able to run, especially with the "extras" added to the mix. That being said and given that the film takes place in the future, maybe cars at that time are equipped to run on ethanol instead of gasoline. However, it's very unlikely that store-bought alcoholic drinks could run such a car, and the chances are even lower on a mixture of alcohol, vomit, and urine. In summary, the truck very likely could run because of existing fuel already in the tank, and what Kable did was probably completely unnecessary. As shown in the movie, there were security cameras in the locker room, and they spotted it. It would have been confiscated.First, the audience cannot be sure what actually goes on in Society. There are two implied sex scenes. In the first, Kable's wife propositions the Pig-Nosed Man, and then it cuts away. Later, we see that she is unharmed. In the second implied sex scene, we see the upper torso of a naked woman hopping up and down in the rave. Given today's MMORPGs, it is quite possible that the "sex" in Society is actually quite tame and PG-rated, with the situation being much more interesting than the actual graphics. On the other hand, if actual sex did occur, it would be covered on the same statutespornography, which is legal in many countrieslongthere is consent. The movie does not explain how far the actors are required to perform a sex act, but either way, it would be legal. Alternatively, many films extrapolate the future of the human race with the assumption of further lapses in censorship and "acceptable morality", therefore it's entirely possible in this future the sex implied on screen is entirely legal under the current laws. It's also possible that the facilitating of Society involves some illegal activity that is undetected or being ignored by the justice system.
