Short Review: Unlike the majority of the film's viewers, I did not enjoy The Game at all really. Mainly because of the story. I found it annoying, and at times just plain silly. I was really disappointed because I am a huge David Fincher fan, and respect Michael Douglas and Sean Penn greatly. I must warn you as well - it's a film with no answers. There are many exceptions when I don't mind an open ended plot with a few unanswered questions, but this film was not one of those.
