Fincher fan or not- see this movie

Rating: 8/10 (13 March 2007)

Definitely worth a rent AT LEAST. Fincher's third movie stars Michael Douglas as the rich, cold and alone Nicholas Van Orton. His brother, Sean Penn, gets him a reality-life game from a company who specializes in creating different life games for different people based on their lives, history, likes and dislikes, etc. The object of the game: to figuare out what the object of the game is. Orton is very reluctant about the game, however you can tell he secretly is very intrigued by the idea. As you may guess and without revealing too much- things get out of hand very quickly and things are not what the seem. Michael Douglas is at the top of his game as well (pun intended). Personally, I find this to be one of his best movies he's ever made. All in all, this one is a must for thriller fans, Fincher fans, Douglas fans, and just about everyone else too. 8/10
