I couldn't believe it when I put this movie in my DVD player. I thought I'd have a good laugh, since I've played D&D for half my life. I had to turn it off as I had company and they were... Full review

You want to see the movie "THE Gamers" by Dead Gentlemen Productions. This is not that movie. This movie is not funny. It is a waste of time. All of the good comments here seem to be written by (poorly disguised)... Full review

This movie is just lame. A total waste of time and money. The jokes are predictable, the characters are so cliché and the way it talks about RPG gamers is not funny as well. The problem is that the writers... Full review

I picked up this movie in the hope it would be similar to the hilarious "The Gamers" by Dead Gentlemen Productions (which is highly recommendable, by the way). Boy, what a disappointment! The movie is shot in this fake documentary... Full review

This movie is a must see for any geek. I laughed constantly. I actually had to stop the movie twice cause I was laughing so hard. A lot of the jokes are more along the lines of toilet humor, but... Full review

Christopher Guest need not worry, his supreme hold on the Mockumentary sub-genre is not in trouble of being upstaged in the least especially not by this extremely unfunny jab at RPG-gamers. The jokes are beyond lame. Not enough substance to last... Full review
Move along, nothing to see here.

I usually enjoy films like this. It's shot documentary style, but the acting and writing are just awful. The acting is wooden and stiff and the writing is just so cliché, but not at all in a good way. As... Full review

Saw this movie at a screening. I laughed my ass off the whole time! Being a bit of a RPG nerd myself, I totally connected with the characters and their plight. "Gamers" is to pencil and paper warriors what "This... Full review

I saw "Gamers" at GenCon in 2006 and was just about in the floor rolling with laughter. The guy who wrote the screenplay deserves to be making big budget comedies in Hollywood. His script is the funniest thing ever. It... Full review

This movie is that know-nothing jerk.....Gamers has its fair share of gay Ronald McDonald jokes, KKK jokes, swinger parents jokes, horse milking and even a whole bit on a gay Jesus.....Many gamer-related movies are indeed bad....it's just a bad movie.....No, Gamers ' fatal flaw is.... ...

You don't actually need to have navigated a dungeon or fondled a 20-sided to enjoy the movie....Gamers has an appealingly twisted sense of humor....like Christopher Guest's masterpieces of the form, the film examines a small, weird subculture and the weirdos who put it above all else in life.....Folino has himself an impeccable cast of up-and-coming comedians and improv artists.....Hanson reminded me of Chris Elliott at his shit-eating funniest on Letterman ..... ...
