Game Night Movie Review; Real Game in Fake Night

If you are looking for an adventure and suspense movie that you can watch with your buddies, your choice is great because Game Night has suspense as the main genre and comedy as the secondary genre. It can also give you “whodunit” vibes, especially if you like Hercule Poirot, a famous Belgian detective and fictional character created by British author Agatha Christie. Game Night is one of the best suspense and adventure movies made in Hollywood in the 21st century.

The Movie Plot

Max (Jason Bateman) is a very competitive man who takes every challenge very seriously. In one

Bar Trivia Game, where he competes with Annie (Rachel McAdams), and they both like each other’s personalities. They play dumb charades, Pictionary, and other board games with their friends on game night, which is hosted by them. As a couple, they were having some problems conceiving a child. The doctor told them that their highly competitive nature is causing stress problems, which lead to low sperm counts, so Max needs to relax and doesn’t need to worry about anything.

Max and Annie’s neighbour Gary (Jesse Plemons) always intends to join their game night event, but Max and Annie never invite him and they try not to let him know about the nights. They invited their friends and instructed them to arrive quietly and hide from Gary. On game night, Max’s brother Brooks (Kyle Chandler) comes to join the party as he was in town for some business work. Brooks is also a very competitive guy, just like his brother Max, and everyone likes him better than Max. Max always feels insecure around him. Brooks comes with Max’s dream car, a 1978 rally red Stingray coupe. Gary got to know about game night as Brooks came for the party.

Brooks wins the game night against Max and invites Max, Annie, and their friends to his hosted game night. They all agreed to go there and play with Brooks. Brooks explains that this game night will be different from the Max-hosted game night in that it will be a murder mystery game night, with the winner receiving a 1978 rally red Stingray coupe. Gary invites Max and Annie for dinner, but they decline his offer. Gary asked them for a game night, but they again denied him. Brooks hired a professional company that designs and makes murder mysteries for people who like them. Everything goes smoothly, but rather than fake kidnappers arriving at the party, real ones arrive and kidnap Brooks in front of his brother and friends.

Nobody suspects anything, as they thought it was all planned for the party and that they would cooperate with the real kidnappers. Everyone wants to win the car, so they start searching for the clue to find Brooks first. Max and Annie tracked Brooks’s location to find him first, and they found him at the bar. Annie has a gun, which she found at the Brooks home. Ryan and Sarah begin looking for Brooks after discovering a card from the murder mystery organiser, and Ryan looks Kevin and Michelle in a room in order to increase his chances of winning the prize.

This is the basic premise that the film offers you further information regarding this movie, which may count as a spoiler as it has many twists and turns, and new secrets will be revealed. I want to mention that there is a subplot of the cheating as Michelle has never told her hookup story with Denzel Washington to his husband Kevin, he got to know about this in a drinking game. The movie storylines are very straight and easy but the writers and directors have done a brilliant job of executing the idea are that they have made.

The chemistry between the leads, Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams, looks perfect, and Jesse Plemons’s work is highly appreciable. Overall, it’s good to watch with your friends and family, and you’ll surely enjoy it. This is the Game Night Movie Review presented by PXGMovies.
