Awesome Fincher atmospheric film.

Rating: 8/10 (25 October 2018)

Alfred Hitchcock used the term "refrigerator movie" to describe certain films. According to the great director, refrigerator movies are well-paced thrillers that work effectively while being watched, but fall apart upon later examination (while "standing in front of the refrigerator"). David Fincher's The Game is an obvious member of this class of motion pictures. As it's unspooling on screen, the film is hugely entertaining, but there are several significant plot holes that grow wider the more closely they're investigated. Douglas- who is pretty much in every scene is fantastic as the lead. This is a great thriller to watch.
