Review of House of Games (1987) by Simon T — 26 Sep 2015
When I first saw this movie in 1987 I thought it was a brilliantly clever thriller, compromised by a very wooden central performance. Seeing it again, almost thirty years later, I realise I was wrong: it's a so-so thriller, compromised by several very wooden performances and lumbering direction by its writer.
A movie that is crying out for a decent remake with good actors.
