1UP

I saw it on prime video, and felt it had an adequate opening, but dropped it right after they finished the practice match when I felt physical pain at the logic they had for the team. Before they finished the match, I even sympathized with the main character, since I was a support main back in my league days, but the stereotyping was misplaced, teams can't really do the misogynistic roles, and no one who knows any better disregards a support player. Other problems, role doesn't equal team position or skill. If you want to watch something with females in a good role, watch "King's Avatar" and save yourself the pain.

I've never rated a movie less than 5/10... I can usually find some light to bring it up a tad...

This? I'd give it a zero if I could.

The script is horrible. The scenes make no sense. The relationships are completely unbelievable. Ruby Rose's acting is poor.

The gaming events should be intense, but they just put you to sleep.

It was utter cringe.

Going into this film I did not expect much. The reason I has so little-expectations for the film was primarily due to the 1.9 IMDb score which, I must admit, I know is probably (at least slightly) review-bombed. Nonetheless, I still gave it a shot. Initially there was nothing particularly terrible. Of course the cinematography and production design were... poor... but It was at least mildly interesting. Then 1UP revealed what it truly was! CRAP! The character dynamics between the two leads; Sloane and Lee were un-interesting and trivial at best. The acting from both actress' is also shockingly under-developed and thought out. However, the script is so poor that I bet no A-list actor could've given a real shot at it, so perhaps the actress' do have talents that just aren't represented here. The supporting cast and there characters are akin to a troupe of stereotypes you may have found in a 90s DTV Bottom-of-the-dollar-bin teen attempted-comedy. There are extended periods where the groups are playing each-other and these parts are excruciatingly boring. I can't continue this review without pointing out two of the most annoying characters I have had the insincere opportunity of watching. Lilly played by Madison Baines and Diane played by D. J. Mausner. Both characters are equally annoying in their own rights but the worst of the two is by-far Lilly. Lilly is the 'weird,quirky' friend in the main group and her whole character is based around this. More one-dimensional than the perfect line. And Diane is the gross chick in the group. But I hope to never see that damn lilly actress 'Madison Baines' in anyhting ever again!!! Terrible film. May provide inspiration to like two people. That's it. To the other 100,000. Pure Pain. PURE TORTURE!

There are so many faults in this movie it is hard to find a place to start. Firstly the acting, characters, directing, and writing isn't good. Every scene in the movie had so many cringeworthy lines in it and all the characters are either hyperbolized stereotypes or just ultra diverse pandering. Then there is the competitive gaming aspect of it. The way that the team starts just isn't real. Collegiate teams have lots of scouting and tryouts to join the team. Also there are very few women who play games let alone play enough to climb the ladder to pro. You actually need to be good at the game and high ranked. You don't just decide you want to start a team and recruit random people and hold interviews. Also you don't compete in the "collegiate esport league". Also you don't just "train" by drinking and playing nintendo 64 games. Then there is the game part. This is a real game, but as the movie goes on the game gets twisted and is just used as plot armor and the scenes with the chicken burning everything down and the blood character just morphing around are just not real. Overall. The movie is clearly just a stunt made by people who know nothing about the gaming scene. If they wanted to make a movie about diversity or sexism they should have just done that instead of masquerading their intentions with this movie.

Just watched this and it was just awful. A lot of amateur actors, and a clinchen story. Save yourself the time and watch something else. This was just another woke-crap movie.
