ANOTHER FABBY-DO REVIEW, FROM AUSTIN UNDERGROUND FILM!
OCTOBER 2006 - Andy Gately of the Austin Underground Film Festival saw GAMERZ, dug it, and shares his thoughts:
'The film marks an auspicious debut for director Robbie Fraser, who renders the universality of the gaming subculture's escapism and drama supremely enjoyable. All the actors turn in solid performances, and Ross Finbow is a charm in the lead role... Toss in some beautiful Bakshi-esque "shadowplay" animated sequences, and a soundtrack that includes theremin metal, and what's not to love?'

AIN'T IT COOL NEWS GIVES GAMERZ SEVERAL THUMBS UP!!!
SEPTEMBER 2006 - Following our screenings at Fantastic Fest in Austin, GAMERZ has received a number of highly positive reviews from the staff at the number one genre film site on the planet, Ain't It Cool News!
'GAMERZ GEEK NIRVANA' by Harry Knowles:
'Robbie Fraser really knocked this out of the park. It's a low budget film that stretches it without showing stretch-marks. The visual FX for the shadowplay world of the game seem to reflect the waking dream of the pencil-sketched wanderings that one goes on while playing role-playing dice games. For anyone that's taken a hit and had an *beep* dungeonmaster... this film will be hilarity. BTW - Danielle Stewart as Marlyn - the quasi-goth/elf chick was INCREDIBLY geekilicious! Especially with the elf ears on. Rowr!'

From Darla Hood's Ain't It Cool News review:
'This film is fun, fun, fun. And it's completely accessible to everyone, even non-gamers... The cast is a perfect fit for each of the characters and are each basically unknowns in Scotland. I'm impressed that the producers were able to find such ideal people from unknown young actors AND be able to get the film made AND to be able to make such a perfect gaming film with them. It's wonderful... It's a good ol' feel good movie on a topic that doesn't get used enough in films. Keep your eyes open for this one... You won't be disappointed.'

Massawyrm's Ain't It Cool News review:
'This was the one that screamed out to be seen. And it didn’t disappoint... GAMERZ does a great job of being funny, without throwing gobs of geek specific jokes and jargon at the audience to alienate them... A good-hearted and well-constructed indie, this is a film that any RPG fan cannot miss and one that those who wouldn’t know a d4 from a d12 (here’s a hint, one of them is almost useless in 3.5) can just as easily fall in love with.'

Augustus Gloop's Ain't It Cool News review:
'I have less gaming experience than many of my friends, but I've enough to know this was written, lovingly, by someone who has directly experienced the role-playing world and the related social dynamics. GAMERZ brings several unknown, but talented actors to the screen. Punctuated with clips of the characters' role-playing alter-egos in silhouette or shadow-form, this is a fun, quirky, at times emotional, trip through what for many of us is solid nostalgia. Very enjoyable, constant laughter keeps the mood light even in tenser scenes.'
