Review of The Game (1997) by Kase V — 21 Jun 2012
David Fincher's sophomore bout 'The Game' should not disappoint any remote fan of his. Yet the average viewer may find few things to dissipate their interest. The mood is a chronic gloom that has found its way into most of Fincher's work, and 'The Game' may be the worst offender.
It's not entirely a bad thing that the movie has a very dark mood, but it is nice to see some glance of positivity every once in awhile. The script isn't his best either, but the acting was done well.
'The Game' is far from Fincher's best, but tht does not mean it is hard to enjoy. This is a moody thriller that takes its viewer for a spin. An exhausting conundrum of a spin, but a spin no less.
