There is a manga, anime and movie called GANTZ which is pretty interesting (The manga) !!! This movie is a total rip-off of that manga and little from the move called The Cube (last one) !!! Anyways even if it was not a rip-off it is a really bad directed, acted, and written movie (some acting are OK)!!! Predictable ending, cliché action, boring pointless conversations !!! However, this movie is a very low budget movie, so expecting something good for a sci-fi, action movie is absurd from the beginning !!! Watch or read the GANTZ or The Cube trilogy instead, they are way better then this rip-off !!!

I love sci-fi that explores the human impact of developments in technology and the premise for The Call-Up promises plenty of that. How do different personalities react when they realise that the VR game they've been invited to participate in is more sinister than it first appeared? Although this central dilemma is prominent in the first part of the film, once the plot gets going, the action leads and the pace keeps you engaged as the characters are forced to learn quickly and figure out whether to work together or turn against each other. The way that the film's perspective mirrors that of the protagonists as they switch between 'real' and 'virtual' is impressive and compelling to watch. I would have liked to see a bit more focus on the psychology of the premise, but with a concept of this scope, there's only so much you can cover, and the action-movie elements win out. The effects are impressive for a low-budget debut and I found the acting convincing, although there isn't much nuance to the characters. Worth a watch if you enjoy action films that make you think.

For a low budget and a persons first movie to write and direct wow. At first I thought oh no here we again, cheesy. But giving it a chance I was completely entertained. They used just enough to keep you wanting to see it through to the end, fore I for one had to know what was going to happen and was not disappointed. I give this 8/10.The acting mostly was acceptable except for a couple of the characters but over all not bad for generally unknowns. Stick with it past the 1st 10-15 minutes and I think you would like it. This is a movie that should be liked by the gaming community especially as it will really make them want more from the systems they use, or maybe less? This last statement is not a spoiler for if you see the trailer or read the synopsis everyone knows it's a game.

I really don't get why some people hate this movie so much. The actors are pretty decent for this kind of movie and while you sometime think the characters are being plain stupid, i'd be willing to bet if it happened for real, it would be worse, regular people in life or death situation are scared and dumb. The character development could be better, but there's enough of it to get the story going, there's the scared youngster, the good guy, the hopeless nerd, the jerk, the ex-soldier... sure it doesn't go real deep into details, but you get a pretty good sense of the kind of people they are. The plot is interesting, the cgi is good enough, there's plenty of AAA movies that did way worse out there and incoming (supposedly scary cartoony looking neon ghost anyone?). So yeah, 7/10 for me, i liked it.

The cinematography was pretty solid. It starts off well, the concept was decent. A lot more thought went into this then some other big budget movies with logic not completely discarded. Yes it was a little predictable but still entertaining. There was no point where I had the impression of it being "cheap". I think it's unfair to rate it as low as some others have done. I think resorting to faking the reviews irritates people and is self-destructive in the long run hence why some extreme reactions and very bad reviews. My only issue was the final 10 seconds of the film. I would have taken "the bag", I think anyone in that position would have. I understand why this wasn't done, "symbolism" but I believe it would have been much more creative to have the person in question go back at the last minute just when everyone would have thought, it wouldn't be the case, and the final final scene is the person leaving with it.

Had the chance to see this intense and claustrophobic thriller at the Sci-Fi London film festival. The idea behind The Call Up is simple and clean, which makes it all the more effective and terrifying. A group of gamers are invited to a sterile office block to road test a state-of-the-art VR game. As the game kicks in they find themselves immersed in a gritty war zone with Kalashnikov wielding terrorists around every corner. But as the bullets fly, they realize that the danger is all too real. For me the use of a cast of talented unknowns added to the tension. You just don't know who's going to bite the bullet first. While most effects-led films leave me a bit cold, this had me on the edge of my seat. I had to watch parts of it through my fingers – and I wasn't the only one. If you like your cinema visceral and visually unique check it out.
