When a pirate version of the most popular - first person shooter video game lands in the hands of Matt and Jimmy, they immediately think it's the coolest video game they have ever played.

Reviews

Cosmo322 I normally do not write reviews on here but every once in awhile a movie does compel you. First off, kudos to the producers. It is impressive that you were able to raise the $850,000 (rumored) for this movie's budget. Unfortunately it is the only thing impressive about this movie.The casting goes to show you that you cannot pop into a nearby high school and fill out your leads and make a good movie. I'm sure this movie was shot in a very short time because there is no chemistry whatsoever among the cast. As previous reviews have stated, the acting is absolutely wooden. These "actors" are just reading their lines. For most, I'm sure this will be a one and done movie career. It is painful at times to listen to the words coming out of these character's mouths. I could pull out individuals but let's just say the whole ensemble was terrible. The only believable actor was Daniel Ball. Who was that, you say? He was the news anchor towards the end of the movie. I think he was on screen for 45 seconds to a minute but he sounded like a real news anchor. And no, I am not related to or know this person at all.And that leads me to the story. There seemed to be potential for a good story but the execution was so lackluster. The main difference between the story and Swiss cheese is that Swiss cheese is delicious. What the story shares with Swiss cheese are the holes. Plot holes galore. The English have a perfect word for it: rubbish.Why three stars? Well, it is not the worst movie I have ever seen and the special effects (which I'm guessing took up most of the budget) is passable at best. I should have watched this movie with a friend because then there could have been shared laughter at the absurdity of it all. But watching it alone, all you can do is just shake your head.
Paul Magne Haakonsen There was just very little enjoyable about this movie. And what little there was, was hardly enough to even remotely keep the movie afloat.The storyline in "Time Warrior" is about two boys who play a seemingly pirated console game titled Time Warrior: Dark World. And by pledging their souls to the game, they become enlisted by the Lord of War to serve as his soldiers.It was really hard to buy into the movie and its storyline, especially because the acting was wooden and forced, and the storyline itself was just so far fetched.And the game was so out of tune, especially since the game didn't at all react to the movement of the controller when the boys were playing the game. And worse yet, the physics of the game was so bad; in the game the gun would be pointing at one target and shoot, but it would be targets to the far left of the screen that would fall down and die. And yet, these boys were so fascinated with the game, all worked up over the gameplay and its graphics. Right...As for the people on the cast list, well they weren't particularly impressive in their acting, and the result was wooden, forced and staggering. And it was really hard to take the Matt character serious that the helmet of hair on his head.Also, for some reason then there was being shown random clips of things that had absolutely nothing to do with the movie itself, and stuff that did nothing to further the story of the movie in the least."Time Warrior" was, I am sure, a well enough intended attempt at a movie, but the end result was just overly bad. And the only thing that the movie really had working for it was that the armor of this Time Warrior actually looked quite good and was nicely made.
R B There are some things being said in the other reviews that I disagree with, the women in the film are not that bad at acting. The stripper and the blonde mom actually did a great job. The little sister, who disappears a little past half way through the film - don't know why, was pretty good too. All of the men are in great need of acting lessons or how to hold a towel over one arm while asking "smoking or non-smoking" before taking people to their tables. The lead was bad and that is never a good thing. Everyone keeps raving on and on about how the budget must have been spent on the special effects - OK, so the Lamborghini, and the other hot sports car, and the helicopter were dirt cheap to rent right? Without knowing what it cost to rent those cars it seems it must have been a big part of the budget along with that really nice house that was featured - unless that was one of the cast member's. If you are looking for a tidy close you are in for rough seas; in every direction nothing made sense. He is supposed to be a Time Warrior but doesn't ever travel time. The plot holes are everywhere - jumps wall without skateboard, gets home has skateboard, sister creepy and into game, sister vanishes from the film, black dust comes out a guys throat - because of why???? And again, no time traveling. I am still trying to cope with the idea that Donkey Kong never has a donkey regardless of the level or the idea that the San Diego Freeway doesn't go to San Diego! I don't need more confusion.It was way better than Laser Blast, and way worse than Night of the Comet. But don't hate on the women/girls - do hate on the men/bullies/dads/leads, yes, do. The seed of a great concept is in this so it may be worth your watch, just be prepared to pay for that seed with your time and a small part of your brain that will die forever.
sofblaze-301-796293 This movie might have been really good if it had the budget of say transformers but it doesn't. The cgi is week and the worst part is the acting OMG I do not think even the syfy channel would play this movie because the acting is so bad.The only good thing about the movie is the main characters girl friend is hot and his friends mom. Now if there was a shower scene or something I might have given this movie a 4.5 rating but it only makes a 3 in my book. I don't know where they spent 850,000 bucks but it wasn't on the actors.The ends when it just starts to get good, now why is it whenever he travels in time he lands somewhere in war.There was no indication on what the smoke rising out of his friends mouth when he was lying in the hospital, was that his soul leaving him or is he now relieved of his commitment to the game.
