The A.V. Club -
The trouble with Gamer is that it’s weird, but not weird enough for the long haul.

Variety -
The audience gets played in Gamer. This latest eye-scraper from writer-directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor is as hopped up as their "Crank" pics, but with dour Gerard Butler as a soldier commandeered by a teenage gamer, it's considerably less interactive.

The Hollywood Reporter -
The technical barrage of visual and digital effects, quick cuts and strobe lighting does produce something akin to the sensation of playing a video game. So why, one wonders, don't potential viewers simply play one instead of watching this pale imitation?

Boston Globe -
For long stretches of the PlayStation-minded Gamer, the action does drag.
