synopsis
Wealthy financier Nicholas Van Orton gets a strange birthday present from wayward brother Conrad: a live-action game that consumes his life. For the follow-up to his dark crime thriller SEVEN, director David Fincher decided to remain in a film noir vein. The result is THE GAME, a fast-paced cinematic roller-coaster ride that stars Michael Douglas as Nicholas Van Orton, a joyless San Francisco investment banker who receives an unusual birthday present from his estranged younger brother, Conrad (Sean Penn). The gift enrolls Nicholas in CRS (Consumer Recreation Services), a company that designs elaborate real-life games for each specific participant. As the game begins, the reluctant Nicholas becomes the victim of a series of pranks that quickly turn malicious and dangerous. Stripped of his finances and convinced that he can trust no one, Nicholas realizes that this game may be an attempt to steal his fortune and leave him for dead. In a desperate bid to regain his life, Nicholas infiltrates CRS in order to uncover the secrets of the mysterious organization.

| There are bound to be fans of SEVEN who will view director David Fincher's follow-up project, THE GAME, as a sell-out...but then again, where was there to go from SEVEN? Fincher's 1995 thriller may have been the decade's most baffling blockbuster -- a horrifying, unnerving, bleak vision of millennial dread which was everything a Hollywood success wasn't supposed to be, yet still somehow made $100 million. It left viewers shaken and emotionally drained like nothing in recent memory. If Fincher had decided to remake THE EXORCIST for his next project, someone would have accused him of going soft.
