Judging from the trailer and the cool motion poster, I say the crazy guys behind CRANK movies, Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor have successfully cooked up yet another wild ride for all of us and those guys truly don’t give a flying f*ck what the critics say about their movies which by the way, f you think about it, never make any sense at all.
Collider has the new image above from the upcoming GAMER, starring Gerard Butler who, along with other prisoners, seems to be praying. Or it’s just a front, seconds before he opens his eyes, wraps his arms around the guard in front of him and snaps his neck.
SYNOPSIS:
In the not too distant future, Kabel (Gerard Butler), a death row inmate, has unwittingly become a pop culture hero. Every week, millions worldwide tune in online to watch him and hundreds of other convicts battle in Slayers, an ultra-violent multi-player online game invented by technological genius Ken Castle (Michael C. Hall). To the wealthy young gamer who controls his every move, Kable is just a sim (simulation) character. To the resistance group that opposes Castle’s games as high-tech slavery, he is a critical element in their battle to take down the inventor. Caught in the crosshairs of two opposing forces and under the command of a teenager’s remote device, Kable must use his extraordinary fighting skills to escape the game, bring down Castle and overthrow the system.
GAMER opens September 4th, 2009
