Watchable but sometimes quite ludicrous.
Reindeer Games is basically a test of your ability to accept a slushpile of implausible twisteroos and Tarantino-style conceits.
About as appealing as leftover Christmas fruitcake.
Gets lost in a blizzard of cliches and uneven performances.
A mechanical exercise from the get-go.
The games it plays are more ambitious than successful.
Kruger makes Reindeer Games fun and Frankenheimer gives it class, clarity, and energy.
Os personagens de Jogo Duro se dividem em dois tipos: os unidimensionais e os incoerentes.
Winds up a fiery knot of tangled loyalties and betrayals, with no one to root for.
"[The director's cut] is empirically better..."
seems always to be verging on the edge of camp, as if it were nudged just a little bit to the left it would be an all-out comedy rather than a thriller
This represents the worst the Hollywood system has to offer.
The trap is set. The game is on. Good movie. This film was entertaining and had a real good story with a very great ending I must say. Really good cast to go along a very good movie is priceless. After being imprisoned for six years on a grand theft auto charge, Rudy Duncan (Ben Affleck) and his cellmate Nick (James Frain) are finally going to be paroled. After hearing endless stories during his incarceration of Nick's romantic correspondence to a woman named Ashley he has never met (Charlize Theron), Rudy is looking forward to returning to his family and having a fresh cup of hot chocolate. When Nick is killed during a prison riot, Rudy decides to assume Nick's identity upon release from prison and meet up with the unknown woman. Burdened with a base knowledge of Nick's Indian casino employment past, Rudy finds himself in too deep with Ashley's brother Gabriel (Gary Sinise) and is violently forced to cooperate with a casino robbery that Gabriel and his gang have been planning with Nick in mind.
Super Reviewer
it was entertaining. B
i really liked this film its amusing and is action packed and not a bad storyline so i really enjoyed it!
Ben Affleck is a car thief who steals the identity of his prison cellmate to woo his pen-pal (not surprisingly considering she's played by Charlize Theron.) Unfortunately he doesn't count on her psychotic brother who is intent on using him in a armed robbery. This likeably daft heist movie takes a lot of cues from film noir and transplants them into a post Tarantino action film. Affleck is hardly the most charismatic leading man, but with Theron and Gary Sinise's amusing nutjob to play off there's plenty of character dynamics to make up for his shortcomings. It's briskly paced, has just the right combination of action and twists and turns to keep you interested and is tongue in cheek enough to make up for the numerous plot holes. It does lose half a star for it's cornball "happy holidays" epilogue, but otherwise it's a fun slice of trashy nonsense.
