takemyspam This was terrible. I hate the idea of hurting the feelings of actors, so I try not to be too harsh but this? Wow. It's shouldn't be on Cartoon Network. It's a quality that could only be appealing to very, VERY bored children when there's nothing better on. Everything was bad; the acting, the props, the plot, the jokes, the script. Everything. Not to mention the overdone (and sexist) elements to it. If you can stomach the awful CG, you can then enjoy all the actors overreacting and screaming while struggling to act like a human. Fun! No original jokes, you'll have heard every one before. Even the damn filming itself is low quality; the camera tends to either go out too far in order to fit a shot, or come in too close which means it jumps around enough to make you ill. Don't waste your time on this trash.
lee7-1 Look it is what it is, a no brainer monster bash but that said there's some real fun here if you don't take it seriously, now where did I leave my +6 Ring of Destruction? OK it looks like I gotta waffle on a bit longer, it reminds me of a long time ago when I was a teenager and I would play Dungeons & Dragons and how I wished some of it was real. There was a TV movie out at the time that showed some kid getting too involved in D&D and suffered real psychological effects,can't remember what it was called tho but this is a lot lighter and I really enjoyed it and I'm an old cynical so and so! There were some interesting characters in it to be honest, the Game designer is a neurotic freak, effects were acceptable and acting was decent enough for a light hearted romp.
lamermi What can I say that has not been said in the previous reviews? Not withstanding that this "Thing", and I must stress Thing, I so bad that I wanted to gouge my eyes out of the sockets. I've been playing online games for years, and this show is plain insulting and so bad that I recommend burning the film so it does not contaminate anything good Cartoon Network might have in the future. Mainly the acting was not just sub par, but downright miserably bad. As for the cg, I don't even want to go into that. I can probably do a better job with a pen and some dirty pages strewn together. If you have any self respect, and or have at least a modicum of taste, stay away from this horror
rogue9000 This show is not as bad as some people think. The idea of characters from a computer game appearing in reality is not a new idea but they have created a decent story on how it happened (sort of). This show has a guild who play together who turn out to be a nerd,bad boy and jock showing that many different types of people play these games which makes a change from it only being the nerdy kids. People have said that the weapons look stupid but they are supposed to look like the ones from the game so i do not know what they expected. This first episode (pilot film) sets up the story well has some lines that game players will recognise and has enough action to keep young kids spellbound. All in all i enjoyed the show and hope it does continue as there is such a wealth of online material they could use (i wonder how long it would be before Chuck Norris is mentioned lol).
