Well, if you have a workaholic friend who behaves like an asshole in his personal life, then this is The film for him. The Game is David Fincher's most underrated film and most certainly one of his best. A greatly shot, superbly performed neo-noir thriller that really and undoubtedly makes you want to eat your tongue while watching it. A game that goes utterly wrong and a guy, an asshole, is being dragged to a shitty situation or more correctly a collection of shitty situations that seem to go from bad to even worse. A real nightmare, the movie is relentless to the viewer who after some time he feels utterly sorry for that asshole who is watching his life melt in front of his eyes and he is unable to do anything. The Game is the epitome of the word thriller, with an incredibly breath-taking suspense that seems to work as an hourglass that runs out of time. The film is really a study on thorough filmmaking, an amazing darkly and insecure neo-noir atmosphere and a continuity of events that work brilliantly like a nerve thrashing clock that as time goes by it's even closer to zero time. The Game is one of the most influential films of the 90s, is among the best of the decade and finally is one of the greatest thrillers that you can find out there that will definitely put you in a mood that will literally make your patience go fucking bananas. A great movie, still stays underappreciated and rarely spoken, when in reality is a film that is executed in one of the most brilliant and astonishingly exquisite ways that we have seen in a movie.
