Sobre aquesta pel·lícula

Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams star as Max and Annie, whose weekly couples Game Night gets kicked up a notch when Max’s charismatic brother, Brooks (Chandler), arranges a murder mystery party, complete with fake thugs and faux federal agents. So, when Brooks gets kidnapped, it’s all part of the game…right? But as the six uber-competitive gamers set out to solve the case and win, they begin to discover that neither this “game”— nor Brooks—are what they seem to be. Over the course of one chaotic night, the friends find themselves increasingly in over their heads as each twist leads to another unexpected turn. With no rules, no points, and no idea who all the players are, this could turn out to be the most fun they’ve ever had…or game over.

The best rating I'd give this movie is 3.5/5. The comedy is very much similar to the Horrible Bosses movies, but doesn't quite capture the humor of it. The film feels a little like it can't decide between wanting to be an action flick, a murder mystery flick, or comedy. There's blunt sexual humor for a good bit of the first half of the movie so if that's not your cup of tea, tread with caution

I feel that the protagonist of this review is a loudmouthed jerk. I've met him, his type and so has every one of us. He just plows over everyone, whether at work or at a bar, on the B Bal court or G course. We can just imagine him at work, his home life, and know precisely how he treats people and animals... any living creature. He's a self righteous bully, who is terrified of his own shortcomings.

I didn't even watch more than 15 minutes of the whole movie. If there's been more than 50 jokes told and you haven't laughed yet, then there's a problem with your movie. I stopped watching right around "Did you blow yourself?". Another case of great idea with terrible execution, I guess. 2 stars, but only because I actually wanted to watch this movie in the first place.
