Greg is addicted to Realm of Conquest, an online fantasy game where he plays an axe wielding barbarian. After battling on-line together for a year, Greg is finally ready to meet his online love in person. He invites her to meet him in real life on a snowy cabin retreat. The problem is, she's not the typical gamer and the results are anything but predictable.

Admirable film.
A Disappointing Continuation
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Cool movie and definitely an interesting story. I like the idea of a film taking on the topic of gamers meeting in real life and what can happen when you learn about your online friends. It's the kind of thing that all gamers think about at some point and makes for a great debate if you should meet or not.Great use of limited space. Although most of the film takes place in two or three locations, it doesn't feel "claustrophobic" at all. The film also does a good job at hoping back and forth between game play and real life, and makes it obvious at any given time which one we are looking at. Camera and audio work wasn't the best, but the story made up for it. Overall, a cool film.
