Saw the trailer for this, looks interesting. People control death row inmates and make them fight to the death. Stars Gerard Butler and Michael C. Hall.  DRILLING AND MANLINESS

Now that the dancing thing has been done to death, this would be a great use for all of those prisoners in the Philippines.

New trailer has been playing on TV. Looks like they just updated The Running Man using VR/gaming schtick and  Michael C. Hall replacing Richard Dawson.

Pretty much, but now we have a nice Project N'tal tie-in  Oh ho ho ho. Reallllly?

They've got a (rather boring) chatty sequence from the movie up at Apple trailers.

I sat through this thing. I felt like I deserved a wow achievment or something for making it to the end.

Any scene with the fat gamer is more horrifying than anything you could get Rob Zombie to produce. Let it not be said that if you are that bulbous you can still get into a major Hollywood film.

I can stand some shitty movies, but this one just sucked balls.  I have no desire to even see this again, and I've actually watched Battlefield Earth twice.

This looked terrible as much as the movie where people were racing in prison for freedom or something.

This movie is bad. It's a perfect example of Hollywood taking what could be an interesting idea and turning it into predictable, ugly shit. Cardboard cutout villain, paint-by-numbers action scenes and directors with so little confidence in their work that they feel the need to constantly move the camera to achieve some form of style. Shittiness is not a style, it's a choice.
