The Game (1997)
10/10
They really, truly, do not make movies like this anymore.
7 January 2024
This is a masterpiece of cinema. It was a ground-breaking experience. This film is essentially one of the greatest mystery thrillers I've ever experienced, because no matter how correct your assumptions may be as to what is truly going on, the correct answer is always exactly the opposite of your guesses.

At every moment, the film compounds on itself. Every assumption of what may be going on has a red herring to match, and every thread that leads to a coherent understanding of the situation that is really behind the plot keeps unraveling to dead ends, forcing the audience to completely throw away any preconceived notions of the truth, and seek it out in the exact same manner as the protagonist.
