What is the plot of The Game 1997?

Fincher’s film is shot in the style of a documentary, presented as an exposé on a mentally unstable man and his machinations to frame Ben for insurance fraud. What does this mean? There are many storyline snippets following ”The Game” television series starring Sean Penn and Michael Douglas. But what made it different from other films that were linked with TV shows was its concept rather than using fictional characters revolving around them.

Is the Movie- the Game Based on a True Story?

If a movie is based on something that happened to you personally or in your family it usually says so. You may have seen this film and thought about how much of the story was true with the scenes added. However, most movies like this are abridged versions where important details like relationships end dramatically just as they do in real life. But To be honest this movie is completely fictional and not based on a true story.

Is the Game a Famous Movie?

Yes, The Game is the movie under investigation. It only has this description because I wrote an investigative article about it 12 years ago and no one ever asked me for permission to use anything from my articles which was a sad loss. In fact as far as that particular one is concerned it just got fobbed off on Spokesman magazine who turned around barfined their copy without any note or comment regarding why they did so – many thanks!

Why Is the Game So Famous Movie?

There are some particular reasons why The Game is a very famous movie and I have seen it described as a cult classic, Biblical, or Hollywood blockbuster under many different labels. The cinematography was superb and the special effects were fab too. In fact, this movie was so very famous in its day that it is listed on IMDB as having an astounding 20,445 ratings of which 963 are one-star while 1997 have four-star.

I would love to know how those sorts of figures could be achieved without people actually seeing The Game. It got so popular when it premiered in 1997 because kids from all over the United States took their un-schooled parents along – just like word spread about the White Mans Claim by quite literally hundreds if not thousands revealing that there were more

Can We Recommend the Game to Everyone?

Yes and no. If we suggest the game to everyone, then most of the adults would look at and not believe our suggestions or take it as advice but rather like a joke or some sort of fairy tale that they say “I know you are joking!” When he is serious though which shows the level at which this game affects people the right way.

I think adults have evolved enough mentally to see where Sean Penn was on board with his ex-wife’s needs, wants passion, etc. That despite her illegal business relationships being extremely extensive she may very well be doing.

How Was the Performance of the Cast and Crew in the Game 1997?

The Game was clearly written by David Fincher and is full of his own ideas – but you would be surprised how original it really was. The guy writes with a lot of styles too so as long as he keeps up this pace (and now that’s what I want) then the performance would always excel in films like these. As for direction will look at Hollywood movies. These are full of used characters who keep coming back over and over again just because they will have to die eventually. It seems counterintuitive but that way there’s less time to develop their character.

Should We Watch the Movie- the Game 1997?

We recommend this movie to anyone over 18 because the violence, sex, and humor are rated R on most streaming or hard copy sites. These are adult themes which may be considered inappropriate for children so we suggest you watch it somewhere else if your kids want to see it also expect some expletives. This is a veteran’s drama with an ending few would predict including one of the two main characters that predicted her own demise.

Why Should We Recommend This Movie?

The Game by 1997 was still considered so popular that it and the two sequels were even (and perhaps are) in demand on DVD. I am glad of this as now with IMDB being strictly a movie guide, people can discover The Game for themselves over time which is great – no one needs to be spoon-fed this kind of movie, Although not too many TV channels have shown them either. There really isn’t anything bad about the film at all but some obvious things may stick out.

Just about every time I hear someone describing The Game as a “Great Movie”, the very first words out of their mouth are typical, “but if you have never watched it before then”. So for me, that is interesting. So why would anyone avoid watching the film if they had never seen it before? For example, The Game is perhaps most famous for its catchphrase “Never Lose Sight of Your Goals”, which doubles as an excellent rhyme. There are many other catchy rhymes too – this was intentional to preach a message I believe.

The Movie is all about “How far would you go to play in a celebrity game?” and how deep can the rabbit-hole of fame sink before it takes its toll on someone who thinks they are more than just an entertainer trying to make it big.
