Here is a review I wrote about it a few years ago:

I loved it... it was filmed in the "mockumentory" style made popular by Christopher Guest with films like Spinal Tap, Best of Show, & Waiting for Guffman, so its supposed to look like it was made with a hand cam. The story is funny as is most of the semi-improv acting. It has a positive message (cheating is bad) but still leaves the cheater, Bobby Dukes, with a chance to redeem himself & make up for his past. I caught a number of minor technical issues, but overall the paintball aspect of the film was reasonably well done, and only amounted to about 1/5 of the total movie. Its a comedy about paintball, not a paintball movie with some comedy, so Im not going to be overly critical of that aspect of the movie - that would be like watching Spinal Tap & critiquing the music...
Its not a GREAT movie, so dont expect an Oscar worthy production, but it is funny & entertaining, even for non-players, so it definitly worth checking out.
The intro is haillarious - the fall of Bobby Dukes being re-enacted with hand held He-Man action figures...
Overall, I give it a 7 out of 10.

it was amusing. I expected them to get some better equipment than spyders and gravity feed hoppers but I guess that is just a testament to how good bobby dukes really is. Some pretty good quotable quotes as well.... :)

none of the people in the movie can play for shit... why dont they find some actors who can actually look like they know something...

other errors i found were

multiple times they were shooting without paint.

The sam guy at the end played with THREE markers in ONE game, an Angel LCD, an Icon E, and a ICD Bushmaster 2000.

why this is i have no idea.

In the last paintball game, the main bad guy (forgot his name) is using a green angel in one scene and then the next time it goes to him hes shooting an impy... wtf?

Some funny parts: "my name is clifford, the big red murderer" but overall a pretty bad movie. The only reason I watched it was because comedy + paintball = me watching it.

Sweet. I love hulu. It's almost enough to get me to drop my cable TV.

FWIW, that movie was available on DVD a while back. It's definately not a new movie.
