Description
An unsettling, paranoia-inducing thriller about an extreme form of invasion of privacy. The Game is an incredible mind-game of a movie. Crafted with a commanding, aloof precision by director David Fincher in his first outing since hitting the jackpot with Seven. This unusual dive into the ambiguous world of an undefined pastime without apparent rules generates a chilly intellectual intrigue.
