While the recruitment of Jesus by these various institutions is not the same as my own college recruitment, I am told it is quite an accurate depiction. Everyone has advice to offer, and everyone has an angle. This dynamic situation is the one into which Jake Shuttlesworth walks. It was his departure which forced Jesus to assume the role of parent in his household, and the bitterness and hatred is evident from the initial confrontation. Jesus has never forgiven Jake for abandoning his family, and he is angered further by Jake's apparent angle in trying to persuade Jesus to attend Big State.
Game is a gripping movie, powerful from the outset.
Jesus believes that he became what he is in spite of the man he once considered his father. The movie keeps you entertained right up until the conclusion, where Lee attempts to tie all of the loose ends together in an unusual way. Yet do not let this detract from the overall drama of the tale, and the compelling relationship between father and son.
