Summary: Terribly underrated . . . David Fincher is a genius
Review: This is a great movie. No, it's not Fincher's best and can't compare to the chilling Seven or the masterpiece that is Fight Club. But it is still very, very good and very underrated. A very suspenseful and dark story shows us a rich man who gets a very strange present - a "game". Soon the man finds himself in a variety of terrifying and almost surrealistic situations. Very well done, a great movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A solid treat for suspense fans!!
Review: If your looking for a really good mystery/suspense movie, please see the game!! You'll definitely be talking about this one. Michael Douglas is terrific in his role, creating believability. There is so many twists and turns, you won't know what to believe! I think this would describe the movie well: things are not always what they seem...Getting curious?? Rent it today!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A movie you have to see
Review: It`s a really god film, on of the best i have seen. There are lots of moments where you can`t see what will happen, like you can in much other movies. It`s a film about to think of, with some moments of action. But I think it`s the best of you watch the movie and make your own judgement.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: best film of David Fincher
Review: can't wait to see Fight Club. Mr.Fincher is the best director

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent!
Review: This suspense movie keeps you on the edge of your seat without resorting to a lot of violence. I rented it one day and watched it again with my wife the next. The ending is great and you never see it coming!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Poor.
Review: Bad, bad movie. I give it an extra star for some wonderful stylistic touches by Fincher (the old home movie with the piano music in the beginning is absolutely wonderful), but the further into the movie you get, the worse it is. What begins as a stylish and interesting film degenerates into a lackluster adventure/mystery, with the entrance of Debra Unger's character marking a turn for the worse. The dialogue suddenly becomes trite, and the actions of the characters no longer seem believable, even in the suspended context of the film's own reality. The stylistic moments begin to seem out of place. And THEN, in the last half-hour ... lord ... rarely have I seen such incompetant film-making. There are a lot of "surprising revelations," but most of them are not so much surprising as they are forced-feeling, over-the-top, and just generally not very clever. And the ending is absolutely God Awful. Unquestionably the dumbest "climax" to a film I have ever seen. Aside from the fact that you could poke about 2 billion holes in it, it's just aesthetically stupid and dramatically unbelievable. David Fincher's worst film to date.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A superb suspense thriller with many twists and turns!
Review: An outstanding psychological thriller. Douglas creates a truly amazing character. There are numerous twists and plot turns that make it almost impossible to figure out before the final scene. Two big thumbs up!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wow!
Review: All I can say is "Wow!" This film will absolutely keep you on the edge of your seat. You can never really be sure what's going to happen next. Michael Douglas is at his best in this film -- you'll love it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not really scary
Review: This is a great movie but not really a scary one. It's more of a suspense-type movie. The ending is great, totally unexpected. Michael Douglas does a great job as the controlled executive trying to keep his life from falling apart around him. Sean Penn plays his irresponsible spoiled rich boy younger brother who gets him involved in the CRS scheme. Rent it, you won't regret it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I've seen this move over and over and its still is GREAT!
Review: Never gets old. Just keeps you interested in a gentle mysterious way. I love it, and look forward to the DVD version. Yes!
