The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

... View MoreAll of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
... View MoreThe film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
... View MoreI've never been a fan of overly complex thrillers with plots that are deliberately convoluted and confusing. I can never seem to get into them and they usually end up being more frustrating than entertaining. 'The Game' falls directly into that category, and is particularly unrewarding given the awful plot twist and horrific ending, which makes the rest of the film feel like an even bigger waste of time.On the surface, 'The Game' looks great. It's well made, the cinematography is top notch, and Michael Douglas and Sean Penn are excellent in their roles. While for these reasons it's a perfectly watchable film, the convoluted and unrewarding storyline, along with the unsatisfactory plot twist at the end, make 'The Game' a difficult film to like. It's clear that it wants to be a sophisticated and intelligent thriller, but ultimately it's too smart for its own good.
... View MoreThis is the first time ever I've been blown alway by the talent behind the movie The Game that is director David Fincher for directing such an awesome crime thriller that i can't even predict anything so the final twist hit me hard and let me speechless for a moment.Everyone performance is fantastic and above all is Michael Douglas and Deborah Kara Unger.It sad that when you finish The Game the replay value of the movie is very small cause you already know all twist and turn so I can't really find myself watching The Game again with anyone
... View MoreEven though i realized early on, this would be one of those movies, that would break down and descend into absurdity, i have to admit , that I found it suspenseful and entertaining.
... View More'The Game (1997)' is all about the moment, being placed in the shoes of the protagonist and doubting everything you see just as he does, and it works remarkably well considering it has more twists and turns than a country lane. Its various reveals always work because it has the remarkable ability to predict exactly what its audience is thinking and to be two steps ahead of them even when they think they are two steps ahead of it, and it is this underlying intelligence that prevents the flick from feeling cheap or frustrating in any way other than one which would enhance our connection with the core character and strap us in for a mind-game almost like no other. 7/10
