When I first saw the movie "Role models" there is a group of people that is so into role-playing they do it in real life. All dressed up with plastic or wooden weapons that looks like it's a very cheap version of the characters from role-playing video games. Which kept me wondering if people actually really do participate in these types of events, sort of reminded me of Medieval Times except they don't get payed to act that way. This movie is basically about those types of people from the movie "Role Models" except the people that participate take it way more seriously. It's what they call a live-action role play game. This is just one of those movies you have to at least play some RPG games or watched those "Lord of the Rings" to get the entertainment value out of it, at least get the most out of it. The story here is very simple but the premise of the movie is what makes this movie really good. I am pretty sure everything in this movie is over exaggerated and some may complain about this, but I personally thought that was what made this movie entertaining to watch. I didn't know anything about Mark A. Krupa, but he is what made the movie entertaining the most and stole every scene as Bjorn Magnusson. The female lead in this movie is annoying to watch, but it's her role so it's alright and is what progresses the plot. The female lead acts like she is a cocaine addict but she isn't a addict which makes her even more annoying to watch. Anyways this is a Canadian independent film that gets more entertaining as it progresses.
