If you don't know a knight's gambit from a rook switcheroo -- or if you don't know there's no such thing as a rook switcheroo -- it probably won't interest you.
02/03/05
An involving character study.
02/03/05
Gripping, suspenseful, and spiced with fascinating information about the long history of chess between human and mechanical opponents.
12/02/04
Vikram Jayanti's gripping documentary Game Over reminds us that chess legend Garry Kasparov's greatest victory was charged with political significance.
11/30/04
Top CriticTells a gripping story that resonates with numerous subtexts.
12/16/04
Director Vikram Jayanti makes a nail-biter out of the historic 1997 match between the charismatic, mordantly funny Kasparov and the steamer trunks of circuitry.
12/03/04
Top CriticTeases us into believing it's interested in global questions and hard-to-find answers, when really all it wants is to dazzle us with brute force, then dump us before we realize we've been had.
01/14/05
interesting on a human level since it doesn't dwell on the strategical and analytical aspects of the game
02/03/06
Kasparov is a sympathetic character and, even as he belabors the outcome years later, we feel for him
06/03/05
Although Jayanti creates an absorbing scenario of possible corporate malfeasance engineered by a group of slide-rule wielding thugs and shadowy boardroom bullies, he fails to produce the requisite smoking pawn.
03/18/05
This is all great, compelling stuff, and although director Jayanti sometimes goes overboard with his technique (weird inserts, strange camera angles), it's a story that practically tells itself.
12/08/04
In overemphasizing the conspiracy case, Game Over moves from being a compelling documentary to a frankly irritating one.
03/04/05
Top CriticIt's a fascinating story, and mostly because Garry Kasparov is a fascinating subject.
03/04/05
Vikram Jayanti's solid documentary is still fairly suspenseful.
