Nicholas Van Orton bankár mindent elért az életben, amit csak akart: negyvennyolc évesen tekintélyes, dúsgazdag ember, a karrierje csúcsán van. Igazából nincs már, ami izgassa, az apja is hasonló korban lett öngyilkos. Unalmas magánéletének állóvizét az eltűnt öccse felbukkanása kavarja fel. Conrad sajátos születésnapi ajándékkal lepi meg, rábeszéli, hogy vegyen részt egy különleges, a gazdagok számára kitalált játékban. Nicholas rááll a dologra. Érdekesnek és izgalmasnak tűnik, mígnem baljós események sora következik. Nicholas magyarázatot keresne, de nyoma sincs a szervező cégnek. Hamarosan már az élete a tét. (HBO Europe)

Egy kiváló David Fincher thriller, jó adag paranoiával. De a finálé, ami az egész történet kulcsa, eléggé ellentmondásos. Egyrészt megdöbbentett, másrészt viszont csalódtam benne.

For me, it's David Fincher's weakest film, not so much because of the direction, where the director maintains his usual standard, but because of the overly contrived screenplay, where it's better not to think too much about many parts, otherwise the viewer will realize that it simply can't work. However, in terms of acting, it's an interestingly cast film and, above all, excellently acted - Michael Douglas and Sean Penn belong to the top tier of actors, and I have a soft spot for Deborah Kara Unger, who manages to imbue her female characters with an erotic charge. But the screenplay with plenty of seemingly effective twists really bothered me. Overall impression: 45%.

I certainly have a long-built fondness for the great Michael Douglas films of the 80s and 90s, and Fincher's The Game is one of the highlights of that great era. Who can resist suspense thrillers in which Michael practically never leaves the screen? He's partnered with Sean Penn and Deborah Kara Unger, the subject matter is period-appropriate in many ways and it's all very enjoyable. Such an indulgence is irresistible.

I like Dave Fincher for his talent to "create" a great atmosphere and imprint a specific style on each film. Nevertheless, he has a problem with The Game, because this screenwriting mystification seems to me to be a disposable film. It’s not that I didn't enjoy watching the way the whole game with the viewer played out, and it’s not that Fincher didn't give the film his typical directing style. It's just that it’s missing that the vague, sparkling thing that, for example, Seven has. On the other hand, this is a pure and very straightforward thriller, so blaming it for the lack of depth is unfair. It’s good enough film material to entertain.

The most sophisticated of David Fincher's films. I could watch it over and over again and The Game would still be fascinating to me. The paranoid atmosphere is taken to the absolute peak and poor Michael Douglas is effortlessly placed in the most absurd situations, which still give me chills to this day.
