interesting on a human level since it doesn't dwell on the strategical and analytical aspects of the game

Kasparov is a sympathetic character and, even as he belabors the outcome years later, we feel for him
06/03/05
What is strongly suggested, and what a casual chess player might not expect, is the degree to which the game involves psychological warfare
04/08/05
Propelled by the edge-of-nerves atmospherics of Robert Lane's music, this is as much a psychological thriller as a historical document.
03/27/05
It should be good fun for chess lovers. For the chess-indifferent, it also has some enjoyable moments.
03/25/05
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
Top CriticHaunting and provocative documentary.
03/17/05
Though it never disguises its sympathies for Kasparov and contempt for a powerful corporation's machinations, docu is finally a speculation on the limits of the human mind and how truth can never be fully known.
03/04/05
Top CriticIn 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
An engaging film.
03/04/05
Top CriticAfter the interesting chess lesson is done in Game Over, all Jayanti has left is a film with one big question and no visible attempt to find any answers.
02/11/05
Top CriticIf 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
Top CriticOne of the most exciting, instructive and sheerly entertaining of all chess films.
