GAMER is to CRANK as TRUE CRIME is to GRAND THEFT AUTO?

Good review. Loved the Terry Crews as Godzilla cap.

Hated the movie. Not a huge 'fan' of the Crank movies either. Loved their insanity, can't stand the sensibility. Their directing leaves a lot to be desired. Gamer is obvious proof of that.

Thanks!

As you can probably tell from all the gushing about them I do in the review, I love the CRANKs, so this was a letdown. I think these guys are definitely talented, but maybe it (mostly? only?) shines when they're playing in that one very specific sandbox.

But also, they're very young directors. GAMER is only their third feature. Maybe they just need to learn to better harness their strengths in settings outside of the no holds barred world of Mr. Chelios.

Technically it was their 2nd feature as it was held back by the studio.
