Best movie ever!

A Masterpiece!

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

This 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

One of the most beautiful movies I ever watched you can't expect anything

'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

This is a long way from Fincher's best - but nor is it his worst. It is still better than _Benjamin Button_, with its infinite budget and Kubrick-style obsessive perfectionism.I don't want to discuss the film content - just what it was. This is like an extended Twilight Zone episode, with twist upon gotcha upon twist. While these were good, they weren't mind-blowing. The best descriptor is "competent". As far as his film's go, it's in my second tier of his selections along with _Panic Room_. Competent but not extraordinary. That said, it's still leaps above your typical Hollywood barf. Fincher managed to snag Michael Douglas for this, one would assume on the tails of the much superior _Se7en_from 2 years prior. That's a minus for me - I find it hard to take Douglas films seriously.But I nitpick. By general standards this is superb viewing for stay-at-home, night in popcorn viewing. It engrosses and keeps your attention. As such I do recommend. But by Fincher standards, it's pretty mediocre, nowhere near the heights he reaches in _Fight Club_, _Zodiac_ or _Gone Girl_. It's still well worth viewing.
