As I said in the title, this show is extremely well made for a free, non- YouTubeRed series. The show's plots aren't great, and the script often feels poorly written, but we can't really complain, after all, it is free to watch! The animation and VFX of this show are brilliant, the guys at Rocket Jump really outdid themselves in that respect.

Not your average high school show. The show centers around a school that specializes in video games, but the main focus is the wonderful mishaps that the main characters get up to. Each episode is hilarious and extremely well done, creating a wonderfully bizarre viewing experience!

I've been a gamer for a long time and just recently found out about this show from a friend and while I didn't have much faith I ended up enjoying this much more than I expected.For starters the production values are actually really good. Let's not forget that this is a web series that can be seen for free on youtube yet in some areas it feels like it has the same production values as most comedies from big TV corporations. The action scenes in particular are really well made, which isn't surprising considering Freddie Wong is in the production team (people who know his youtube videos should know what to expect). I know a lot of people that are always skeptical about web shows so if you are one of them be assured that this feels like an actual show and not some kids with a camera shooting something in their house. Most of the actors are decent, you won't see any award winning performances here but they seem to be on par with most "sitcoms". The humor is rather unique. Personally I like it but I can see how other people might not. A lot of the jokes rely on the "so bad it's good" formula because of how over the top, stupid or just random they can be, so if you are looking for a comedy where the humor is based on truly clever writing this might not be for you. But as long as you don't take it that seriously it's actually fun (IMO). That's not to say that all jokes are bad, there are constant nods and cameos from the gaming world, some of them really clever which leads me to the biggest reason I enjoy VGH: It feels like it was made from gamers for gamers. Be it some of the gags/jokes, situations, cameos, hints or plot points, you can simply tell this show was made by people that actually enjoy videogames. And that's something that I can really appreciate, specially in a medium where everything gaming (or geeky) related is mostly shown using the most generic of stereotypes (big bang theory would be a good example)

Yes it may be corny and full of cliché's, but it's not like the writers were unaware of this, they used the cliché's in a mocking nature against other films of a similar 'high school' genre (High school musical comes to mind), therefore giving it more substance and deeper humour. You can tell by the way it was acted, that you are supposed to take it with a pinch of salt. The bits that are incredibly cheesy are also very funny in an moronic yet ironic way. The acting wasn't too bad, many of the characters were generic, yet this only added to the increased mocking- humour of the light hearted program. Other users have also made the mistake of thinking this was a movie, it is a web-series, not a movie. Sure it wasn't an original plot, but the way it was portrayed was new and fresh. The special effects were surprisingly good, especially since the program was very low-budget. The only complaint I have is that you didn't really get to know the character's back stories and complete personalities, but this has greatly improved with the latest series, as back stories are given almost every episode.Anyone who loves video games should love this movie. It is a pity some people don't have the ability to analyse the reason for the cliché's, but I guess these same people aren't familiar with gaming-culture or teen-culture therefore wouldn't see the irony. For that reason I can see why this wouldn't appeal to some generations.A fun, lighthearted and funny movie, that is well worth a try.
