Hold Up

In 1997 we received David Fincher’s follow-up to Se7en with, The Game, a sleek action-filled drama starring Michael Douglas, Deborah Kara Unger, Sean Penn, and James Rebhorn. Douglas takes point as Nicholas Van Orton, a man with everything who has lost the love for life, and so his brother gives him a very unique birthday gift, an immersive game that will force him to face his demons. However, the lines between ruse and reality are blurred and Nick must kill himself so everyone can party! Sound intriguing? Sure. Does it Hold up? Maybe. Listen in as Jon, Colin, and Brent debate splitting the cheque and suicide-themed parties as we try to figure out if The Game wins or we lose.
