Game Night

Starring: Jason Bateman, Rachel McAdams, Kylie Bunbury, et al.

Product Description

Bateman and McAdams star as Max and Annie, whose weekly couples game night gets kicked up a notch when Max's charismatic brother, Brooks (Chandler), arranges a murder mystery party, complete with fake thugs and faux federal agents. So when Brooks gets kidnapped, it's all part of the game... right? But as the six uber-competitive gamers set out to solve the case and win, they begin to discover that neither this "game" - nor Brooks - are what they seem to be. Over the course of one chaotic night, the friends find themselves increasingly in over their heads as each twist leads to another unexpected turn. With no rules, no points, and no idea who all the players are, this could turn out to be the most fun they've ever had... or game over.

Buy a bungee cord before watching.

We all know what game night is. But it looks like Brother Max is taking it to the max; He has hired a professional “murder night” company to host. Things get out of hand, and we are never sure who is faux and who is real. This theme has played many times over the decades, such as Bill Murray in “The Man Who Knew Too Little” (1997). And there are more sinister versions. What makes this movie unique is the mix of actors. Even though they are well adept at playing the parts, the movie has too many one-liners and tries too hard to be campy. Brooks (Kyle Chandler): “We can’t go to the cops; the Bulgarian has a ton of moles!” Anny “On his face?” You can overlook the heavily peppered lewd remarks, as this is part of the comic theme.
