We've all seen movies based on video games, but movies ABOUT video games are a whole different animal. That's what we'll get September 4th when Gerard Butler hooks up and plugs in for the upcoming movie Gamer.
Set in a world where gaming has gone to its ultimate level--humans controlling other humans in a sophisticated deathmatch, one such live-meat avatar, played by Butler, decides he doesn't like the life of a video game character. Butler's out to regain his freedom by taking down the cruel controller of the most popular game of the time--Slayers. Here's the trailer!
So will this one be a blockbuster or will we be looking for a cheat code to transport us out of the theatre? The password to the comments section is "look down"--so let us know what you think.
Thanks for watching!
