Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall

Tockinit not horrible nor great

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

razoredge-34061 ****SPOILER ALERT****I am a die hard RPG gamer. I have been since I was the age of 6. Familiar with the musk of a bunch of dudes that forgot to put on deodorant (or didn't bother to) and rolling the dice to see the fate of my characters. This film pictured EVERYTHING from my old life in one half-hour package. The arguing between the Dungeon Master and the Rules Nazi, the bro that died about 10 times... even the comic relief sorcerer. This movie had it all.****NOW FOR THE SPOILERS*** The low-budget indie film industry always have had bad reps because of low graphical effects and because the kids weren't seeing stupidly overbearing CGI or any of that. But the jokes of this, became clear... That it was going to be a wild ride, and in a VERY good way. Between the girl going as a killing-fighter, instead of the classic tank everyone expected her to be, to the Bard that couldn't stay alive longer than 10 minutes, it all meshed perfectly. The funniest parts, include the bard's attempts to charm and pacify, which fail numerous times, but also work a few times in the funniest of ways, as luring the paladin outside so they could torture the demon for info, and charming their old peasant in the last dungeon to giving them all the stuff, to the lightsaber, chainsaw, and 12 gauge shotgun in a medieval setting RPG, it was glorious. The turkey came back to life and killed the bard which I almost fell out my seat about, and many, many more. (Irony is that the bard in D&D 1st Edition had the most hitpoints of any class and was almost impossible to kill) The red sorceress's player kept forgetting his character's gender, the monk kept making sly Eastern-style quotes (wouldn't call them quotes... more like play-on jokes) and driving the dungeon master insane. This RELIVED my childhood up to my late teens.****Spoilers End****All in all, this movie delivered gamer-based fun that was dumbed down enough by the new girl so that anyone can understand, and in a way that maximized their low-budget. A great sequel to the first and I want to say this movie is grossly under-rated on this site. 7.5 is not accurate. This is at least an 8 to 8.5... Easy. It had a straightforward plot, great action scenes (for the budget) I would call it EXCELLENT writing, and overall just a hilarious work of art. And I recommend this movie to anyone that has a good sense of humor. You are bound to find one of these characters able to relate to, or you can find someone you know that you could relate them to. You also get to know the gamers on a personal level as well, which make this movie have great character development. Don't be discouraged by the slow beginning. Get past the first party wipe, and you will NOT regret it.

N. N. There are few films that deal with things that I would consider myself an expert on, this one is.After some years of Fantasy Role Playing we split, me not leaving without a sense of shame of what I had become: a dork.You see, these things are really canonical, it happens to everybody.First you create a character fairly and it dies after the first attack.Then you help a little with the constitution, and while you're at it, why not help with strength, intelligence, intuition, charisma and dexterity too? This in turn frustrates the game master who doesn't know how to deal with this invincible gang. And after a while it bores the players too, so they start to create ever more exotic race-profession combinations, no matter how ludicrous it is.I created a Druedain warrior monk, yeah, not that far from the film.And that's not all to be said about the destructiveness of the inherent dynamic of this devilish game (think the hunt for experience points), but just watch the film, it shows it all - and of course the stupidity of its most basic premisses.For this end, in turn, there is no better profession than the bard. I don't exactly understand why the bard became a character in the first place, after all, the blacksmith is none. But once it became one, it had to be mapped into the game flow, that is: it had to be made lethal, at least indirectly. The poking of fun out of this never comes to an end and rightfully so.Sure, it's not exactly a professional production, but I haven't seen a better satire in ages.

issachar Gamers: DR is not a fancy made movie, it's more like amateur video. Horrible magic effect, really fake fireball, terribly made dungeon, castle, village...... sword, axe, shield, robe, plate..... okok... everything. You will need about 10 minutes to adjust your expecting on visual, then you will get 105 minutes of fun.I'm from Hongkong and it's really hard to find RPers, none of my friends play RPG and I always fancy to be one of the character in the world of D&D. Watching Gamers: DR just show me what would it be like to be a gamer. You see rule books, dices, game set, etc etc etc; You hear terms like "fighter", "wizard", "hit point", "level", "character", "flaming hand", "Chaotic Evil".What RPG fancy me is that it let you do anything u want to, not bonded by software RPG. Gamers: DR provide the same element, you wont know what happen next and it probably just make you laugh to dead. The movie goes both gamers's real life as well as in the D&D world. You will hear the gamer cast the dice when the character in game take action, which make you feel you really participle in the game.I don't want to spoil anything, but in short, Gamers: DR is a must watch movie for RPG lovers. For people never play RPG game, I'm sure you still get many fun from it.

Protilius Best fan boy movie I've ever watched save "Free Enterprise."In some ways it reminded me of an early Kevin Smith film.If you do any kind of role playing, this movie will likely have you laughing often at its insatiable fun. Don't expect a big budget here, the acting is also questionable at times, but it really adds to the fun of the atmosphere they create. The script is truly humorous with a lot of witty moments worth experiencing.The bard that always gets killed had me rolling. The sexually confused player also had me smiling a bit too. But in the end... It was just a great movie showcasing some better moments in the lives of a few geeks having a great time with role playing.If you are bored, and ever got into role playing, this will do nicely for a distraction. A real unexpected treat.
