Review of "The Game"

The Game

Other

Umm, "Game"s are supposed to be FUN ... aren't they?

I love a movie that makes you think, and boy does this one ever. Michael Douglas in one of the two mind-f***'s that I list as my favorites. Even with repeated viewings, you still feel the suspense ... trying to figure out if what's going on is real, or just part of "The Game."

Here is a movie that does something many movies can't do: keeps you geussing. And once you think you figgured it out, it makes a sharp turn, right up to the end, even though it's kind of a hollywood ending.

A truly clever and unpredictable film, with strong performances and a good bit of Hitchcock style uneasy creepiness thrown in.
