DVD: Game Night
Game Night starts looking like a run of the mill romantic comedy, about a competitive couple with ongoing fertility issues, but quickly segues into an over complex action thriller wanna be.
Now I know you’re not supposed to expect too much plot wise from a rom-com, but to try and straddle two polar opposite genre in one film was a bit much. Sure there were genuine laughs, but there were far too many cringe moments that negated any of the genuine comedy.
An interesting but ill conceived concept for a comedy.
