Review of Reindeer Games (2000) by Nick96 — 14 Oct 2019
Reindeer Games could have been a good film, but it is not. It is not even a serviceable one. With the possible exception of the talent involved, everything about this movie smacks of a B movie, the kind of film that, with a lesser cast, would have been shipped directly to Cinemax or Showtime.
Reindeer Games suffers from a poorly written screenplay that, coupled with static and uninspired direction, lends the production a cheap and cheesy feel. And the big "twist" at the end, which will undoubtedly become one of the film's prime selling hooks, comes from so far afield that it's impossible to logically predict.
The real problem is the storyline these actors find themselves trapped in. Written by Scream 3 scribe Ehren Kruger, Reindeer Games is an inept blend of routine action sequences, howlingly bad dialogue, and standard thriller plot elements.
There are far better movies in its category to even watch it for free.(Rent Mission Impossible instead).
