Review of Funny Games (1997) by Razvan Florentin P — 04 Apr 2010
Michael Hanake is at the top of his game in this nightmare called Funny Games. Directing with such ruthless efficiency and panache, he has given us a film which is pulsating and disturbing, mesmerizing and repulsive, all at the same time.
It crudely symbolizes how we live in modern times. Helplessly watching our lives fall apart, and doing nothing about it. And don't let the seemingly contrived premise of the film bother you. This is absolutely nothing like what you have seen before.
If you don't mind disturbing images, rent this one out, or better buy it, and get apalled.
