cloe22 I was pretty sceptical at the beginning - having no idea what the movie was about, but I understood the humour within 10 minutes. The music also seemed queer at the start, but it finally sets the perfect tone for this movie. I have always been curious about live action role-playing game, I wondered how people can enter their role and leave the outer world behind, separating fantasy from real life. In this movie, you immerse in this universe perfectly. It was really interesting to see characters getting more and more confused between real life and fantasy, especially when fantasy gets real... Now I just hope every LARP week-end doesn't end like this. Congratulations to the wardrobe team on this, you could never imagine they produced this on a low budget. Lightyears from cheap Braveheart rags. DOP is A1, and the locations are perfect. All actors did a great job. What more to say? Watch it now!

SnoopyStyle Erik Magnusson (Ricky Mabe) goes searching for his girlfriend Lyn (Kaniehtiio Horn) who is fully immersed in a Live Action Role Playing game out in the woods. Only things get weird as Erik falls further into the game.It's an interesting indie with a few interesting moments. Where else could you learn that "Elves are gay". It's odd. A more compelling lead actor would be worthwhile. Ricky Mabe plays a love sick puppy, but can't create a bigger character.The tone keeps changing. There is always a bit of comedy as the LARP world keeps confronting the modern world. That's worth a few laughs. But then there are people who take it so seriously that it makes the whole thing awkward. It's hard to know if this is a horror film, an action movie, a romance, or a comedy. I appreciate this is a full length indie from first time director Alexandre Franchi. It has problems, but it has its moments.

MCharke This movie is well made, with a respectable budget but it does nothing but harm the image of LARPers. The Refs had no control of the game. They made it hard for non-larpers to come in. Oh, and everyone started picking up real weapons and murdering each other. WHAT THE HECK! That doesn't happen at LARP. That would be like hockey players or rugby players breaking out knives and going at it.You LARPers should be ashamed of yourselves for allowing our image to be splattered in blood and gore because you wanted to be famous. This movie was terrible. Thanks for making a Mazes and Monsters for this century.If you want to know about LARPing, go see the movie Role Models. It's a bit silly but the movie does an excellent job of summing up what LARP is about. It's fun. Sometimes people argue. Sometimes people are arrogant but we're all there for a good time.Mark Charke

edumacated this film is out of whack, but that is where it is supposed to be.you have a real viking, rescuing a fake princess from a fake celt, and throughout, all become something they really didn't want to be when the game started.they are nerds playing at fantasy violence without realizing that their modern skins mask a real violence hidden in their real history, and it just waiting for the right catalyst to prompt its release.and then there is the ending. it is a mixture and manifestation of both fantasy and reality.and that is the truth that surrounds us all. we all live in a mix of fiction and the other. and it is up to us which wins out and when. when we give ourselves up to the impetus of a group, we also relinquish individual immunity from the crimes of that group--just ask albert speer.
