What Parents Need to Know
About Gamer
Parents need to know that this mediocre action movie is full of frenetic violence, quick-cut nudity and sexual material, strong language (including lots of uses of "f--k"), and plenty of gore (shootings, stabbings, and more). There's also a general feeling that, just as in their prior Crank and Crank: High Voltage, the filmmakers seem to get great pleasure from trying to offend audiences with this kind of nonstop sexual material, nudity, and violence.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about some of the tricky questions that often surround video gaming: Is the high-tech simulation of violence a way to blow off steam or a dangerously desensitizing process?
- Why do so many people respond so strongly to the idea of living a second, different life through computer technology?

very violent and reeking with nudity
this was a well done film. my husband and i really enjoyed it. but a world where technology is that incredible i would not like. nudity is always a turn off for me in a movie. obviously the internet is full of sex and sinful pleasure, but it is unnecessary to show it unexpectedly. WE GET IT! the graphics are done well and the script makes sense. death is abundant and bloody but essential to make the viewer feel like its real and understand how serious survival is to the main character.

Although I'm 13 and I sorta liked this movie, this movie is totally for ADULTS ONLY.
The movie wasn't all that bad,but it wasn't good either. The movie just left me a headache from all that violence and all the camera shaking. Personally,I liked the story plot. I give it a 3.5/5 The movie had nudity here and there. I wasn't expecting any of it, but I was wrong. You see women's bare breasts and buttocks in some scenes. And there is a nickname mentioned named "Rick Rape". Personally,I thought the violence were not that bad, but it too brutal for kids younger than my age to see (I'm 13).

just plain bad- waste of money;
both my 13 yr old and I were greatly disappointed and didn't like the movie. whole premise is violence and living through real life episodes of war gains release from death row. the concept of the simulated world game running side/side with the simulated war game was confusing and gratuitously sexual - with lots of brief scenes of sexual circumstances uncalled for.

not good for older kids or even adults in my opinion-
Thinking this was a 'video game' type movie my 8 year old son wanted to see it, but thankfully my husband and I went alone. I allow my kids to watch certain movies with the knowledge that they already have been taught not to use certain language and that the violence is fake, etc etc BUT had I taken any of my kids to this movie we would have walked out. I would be horrified even to have my rather mature 13 year old watch this movie. There was not only a TON of nudity, but even more so much of it involved girl-on-girl type scenes. There was almost constant sex/nudity throughout the entire movie if not blatantly then behind the characters as you are trying to watch a scene that doesn't have anything to do with what's going on in the background. It was horrible and a total waste of $20 we spent to got see it. My husband likes action movies and he hated this movie even more than I did. He was so disappointed. The plot was absent and the entire movie was filled with vulgarity and highly offensive breast scenes and butt scenes coming at you with little break in between.

I highly enjoyed this over-the-top frenetic piece of sci-fi. The action is extremely intense and messy (not always a bad thing if you're familiar with Crank). The violence is graphic but not incessant; the thing that makes this movie hard-R is the sex. This could be considered an action-porn movie; nudity, sex, sexualized nicknames (as it states above), a constant bombardment of breasts and buttocks, groping, and more. Not for kids, but a guilty pleasure for video gamers and some adults.
