Justin McClung's Personal Opinion

I was very surprised with how good Gamer was.  It looked like a pretty stupid movie from the previews but the story was much better than expected.  It’s basically like a real world Sims video game.  People who are down on their luck volunteer to be real life avatars for others.  They are injected with a nano particle that allows their avatar owner to control them.  The avatars work in a world called Society and it is an odd place.  You have to see it to get how creative the human mind can be… could be fun, could be really bad.  The Gamer portion comes in when they turn the technology into another game where convicts can fight for their freedom in a game called Slayers.  Gerard Butler is the best fighter and is the main character.  I don’t want to give away too much of the story so you need to watch it sometime when you don’t have a better option.
