Another Fincher movie, nice!

Michael Douglas meets worst LARPing session ever lol. But aside from the odd ending this film is great at keeping you guessing throughout its runtime. Fincher’s ability at tone and mood is always top tier

mojo shivers

The best twisty thriller ever made. This one had me guessing the whole time when I first saw it.

Ste Rawlings

Guys, please could you put the Fincher version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo on your list if it isn't already.

Really great movies like this are great in the theater. You walk out of the theater after seeing it and everything is more vibrant- the crowds, the neon lights, or the bright afternoon if it's a matinee. I felt like that after seeing the Game one noon when it came out in '97. It's just one of those movies that changes you a bit and makes you appreciate good filmmaking.

Charles Gaba

It’s a modern day retelling of A Christmas Carol, just set on his birthday instead of at Christmas.

Trevor Rotan

People tried to intervene other ways, but he never listened. Conrad knew if he kept on like that, then he would lose him for real. Is it ridiculous? Sure. The game made Nick fight for his life, and face his own death.

Dan Holmes

I wonder how they would've felt about it with the original ending ;)

Hans Olav Sletnes

Never been fully able to accept the ending myself, even if I get the intention behind it. Still really like the movie, though. To me, the ride matters more than the destination.

E. D.

I´m happily accepting some plot holes in this movie, I like the ride, the ending, the double twist, I mean it´s well done and him landing on that huge black baloon thingy (what ever it´s called) is pretty cool. He accepted and recovered from all that what they did to him very fast though^^ but so be it, I can live with that.

Your heads are on the wrong genders

Happy Hanukkah

I'll grab this occasion to recommend Falling Down (1993).

HeyHeyJK

Looking forward to watching this reaction. I haven't seen it since it first came out and at the time I just wasn't super worried that anything was really going to happen to him because, well, the movie was called "The Game" so ... I assumed it was all a game.

I hope you guys explore more David Fincher. The Girl With A Dragon Tattoo, The Killer, Panic Room, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (which I feel is severely underrated), and Mank! All great movies and part of what makes Fincher an exceptional filmmaker. Some of them are layered with deep thematic elements and some are just straight-forward fun thrillers that are exercises in studio genre fare that hardly gets made nowadays.

Lex Kuzma

I love this movie so much. Everyone delivers top-notch performances throughout.

Bookwormy

Therapy is expensive, but not that expensive. The way I laughed.

JoeNotCharles

I figure the way they fucked with the TV broadcast just for him is installed a tap on his TV cable, outside the house. (Of course, that's the LEAST of the things that need an explanation in this movie...)

JoeNotCharles

Apropos of nothing, I think you'd really enjoy Wild Things. (Well, George would...)

Jim Saul

Beyond the sexy times, Wild Things is really an awesome crime thriller, with way more twists than I expected going into it.

Thirty Year Old Mulberry Field

I enjoy this more as Fincher’s exercise in mood and suspense. I think my favorite flicks from him have those elements and something extra that keep their experience with you long after viewing, like Fight Club’s kineticism and 90s angst or Zodiac’s compulsions & introspection. But damn this was fun to experience again with y’all!

Thirty Year Old Mulberry Field

Another flick that has a similar setting of protagonist going through situations that go from bad to worse but played more for laughs is Scorsese’s underrated “After Hours”. A comedic effort that stars Griffith Dunne, who y’all just saw as the mauled friend in “An American Werewolf in London”.

Amar

I just watched this movie with you guys and i have to say i did not like the ending. Massive anti-climax.

JuliusKuegel

Y'all really making me choose between Before Sunrise & When Harry Met Sally?

WastedPo

The ending is really bad. It's almost like a wacky sitcom ending where they all laugh. The accepting reaction by Michael Douglas to the big reveal totally goes against all logic and believability, and undoes all the intrigue and suspense built up throughout. It's such a mark against the movie that when people say, "The Game is so underrated!" I'm always thinking, "Is it really underrated, though?"

John_rd

Best Michael Douglas movie is 'War of the Roses' it's dark and hilarious. Plus, samwise the brave and Danny devito is in it. Wins all around.
