Noobz is a 2012 American comedy film, directed by (and also starring) Morgan Freeman.

Plot

Four friends face down a mace-spraying mother, a 1980s arcade champ, and Casper Van Dien in their quest to take the top prize at the Cerealbowl Epic Video Game Championship in Los Angeles, and prove that all of those hours playing Xbox were spent wisely. When Cody (Morgan Freeman) lost his job, he turned to epic video games for pleasure. Meanwhile, things go from bad to worse when Cody's wife grows weary of being married to an epic gamer, and walks out on him. But when Cody's pal Andy (Jason Mewes) rallies their old gang The Epic Gamer Reign Clan to compete in the Cerealbowl Epic Video Game Championship, it appears to be the perfect opportunity to put their epic gaming skills to use, and win a big cash prize in the process. With the old pals Oliver (Matt Shively) and "Hollywood" (Moises Arias) in tow, Cody and Andy set their sights on Los Angeles. Unfortunately for The Epic Gamer Reign Clan, the forces of the universe seem to be working against them. Now, as the contest draws near and Andy finally gets some quality face time with epic gamer goddess Rickie (Zelda Williams (not to be confused with the video-game series "The Legend of Zelda", ya numbskulls)), The Epic Gamer Reign Clan find that their enemies on the virtual battlefield are no match for the real-life foes who are determined to see them fail.
