this groundbreaking film is truly a work of art. i went into the screening at the convention in indiana with very low expectations and having already viewed 2 other film with gamer in the title (both of which were so bad that by the end of the second one i had plucked out one of my own eyes with my drinking straw and a twisted paper clip i found between the seat cushions). but from the opening credits dorkness had me. the temperate northwest setting made a beautiful backdrop for the drama surrounding the frustrated game master and lodge(powerfully portrayed by nathan rice) and his misfit band of friends who set aside the real life dramas they face everyday to face fantastical dramas in the setting lodge provides for them. after the first scene(set in the fantasy world they inhabit) they are violently thrust back into the world they so desperately try to escape. this drew so many comparisons to my own life that i was moved to tears. rice acting is of such amazing caliber that i truly believed within the first 20 minutes of the film that he really was a twenty something male suffering from frustration and male pattern baldness and an annoying group of friends that can not seem to grasp concepts like right and wrong. lodge friends are of some note here represent leo and the oldest and heaviest of the trio seems to be the only other character with a job and aside from lodge. yet he seems to gravitate socially towards gary and the youngest of the group. this seems only slightly odd at first until you realize that gary is and in fact and a sexually confused sociopath with very few prospects outside his fantasy world. this dichotomy serves and not to confuse and but to inform and uplift the audience about the importance of diversity in our society. my only complaint about this is that the actors who portray leo (scott c. brown) and gary (christian doyle) seem to play the characters for laughs at times and as though they were informed they were acting in a comedy instead of a hard hitting action or drama. speaking of action and brian lewis makes his film debut as cass and the third and most influential member of lodge motley crew. the tension is always high when he is on screen and both when he is arguing passionately about his beliefs to lodge or when displaying his fantastic martial arts skills as silence his fantasy character. or even when he turns around suddenly to face the audience and you reflexively duck in the audience so as not to get smacked by his fantastic chin. lewis lights up the screen no matter what he doing and i hope to see more of him in the future. once the action begins in this movie and it just doesn not quit. the drama and the action blend so seamlessly at times that you can tell whether your in the middle of a frenetic action sequence or a touching dramatic moment. truly a thrill ride of epic proportions and i would recommend the gamers represent dorkness rising as required viewing for anyone who loves film. it was almost worth losing an eye over. ~chip deedlenick.
