My quick rating - 7,3/10. Finally, a quality comedy to actual laugh at. I found this movie very amusing. Batemen has been appearing in quite a few solid comedies lately, and this one is a good one. A group of adults like to have their "Game Night" which I have done, you know, board games, few beers, pictionary, etc. So when the older brother of Bateman decides to have the ultimate "game night" at his place, of course there is going to be a catch. A plot line that has been used does come up, kinda like a murder mystery night that has gone wrong. "Fear Inc." did something along these lines, but that was a horror movie. Same basic idea. So without giving it away, the company promises a night where nothing is what it seems and embark on their paid for kidnapping mystery. The acting in this is well timed, and each person has their own way of conveying the humor (Jesse Plemons as Gary is great). There are some nice twists and turns throughout the movie, which in a fun way, leads you to guessing but not in a confusing way. Just a fun movie.
