Critics consensus

“With all of the hyperkinetic action and none of the flair of Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor's earlier work, Gamer has little replay value.”

Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor direct with their usual flashy brio.

An injection of adrenaline straight to the eye - which isn't entirely a bad thing.

RTDaily Telegraph (UK)Sep 18, 2009

Can I get back the ninety minutes of my life that I squandered sitting through this miasmic upchuck of techno sludge? What was the story again?

Brian Eggert

RTDeep Focus ReviewSep 4, 2023

A hostile movie that pretends to contain some semblance of criticism toward escalating video game brutality and social detachment. But its commentary is presented underneath an orgy of Hollywood movie violence and gratuitous boob close-ups.
