The script is the key. And it shows here again, that no amount of talent can rescue poor script. The movie has a stellar cast and impressive visuals/techniques and yet it fails miserably due to poor script. Some reviews puts it in to Agatha Christie genre and alleges it to be the reason people hate it. Well I am a great fan of Agatha Christie, and let me break it down - You don't understand Agatha Christie. Her hallmarks are uncomplicated plot, diminutive characters, amazingly simple setting, understanding of human behavior and a very high dose of logic and common sense. This movie on the other hand has a illogically complicated plot, sickeningly boastful and loud characters, incoherent setting, and a bizarre human behavior. Lets not even talk about logic and common sense. I am surprised that none of the people (and big names indeed) associated with this movie bothered to read the script to see how comical (not in a good way) and logically inconsistent it is. This is only possible if they are either stupid or were distracted or drunk while reading the script (if they ever read it). This movie builds an expectation of delivering a smart and suspenseful plot from the synopsis. However, I was surprised how quickly/early that illusion was shattered. And the movie is a comical drag after that. Few of the things that are likely to give you good laughs - 1) The movie gives impression that Hindi speaking Indians are dominating the Thai politics. The fact is that Indians make up just .008% of Thai population. While it may be theoretically possible, its utterly improbable that a loud criminal who plots in Hindi with a side kick would ever do it. 2) International Vigilance or whatever it is seems to be based in every country but has only Indians speaking in Hindi during work. The Police force that has sweeping international jurisdiction does not exist even in theory. Interpol is just an administrative liaison; they have to contact local police force for the actual job. 3) DNA sequencing gels floating around on flat screen panels in cop's office? Well cops just get the drab report. Even technicians in the crime lab don't stare at gels on flat screen. Software does that job. 4) A modern sophisticated police force with sweeping powers cannot determine whether there was firecracker blast in the trash bin???? Firecrackers don't disappear after bursting. Even a kid can detect one. A firecracker blast would not leave a calm burning flame in trash can. It would force the contents out the bin and there would be a mess with no flame in all likelihood. 5) They invoked an evil twin but evil twin does not try to do the obvious, kill and replace replace himself with the billionaire quietly. Well, I can go on and on but its pointless. You can watch the movie and figure out yourself....... Some people may like the movie despite any number of glitches, but please don't insult Agatha Christie to defend it.

You will find it difficult to believe that this is from a production house which gave us movies like DCH and Lakshya. This is a whodunit which gets more and more ridiculous as the movie progresses. There is not much of a suspense as the twist in the end is something you guess as soon as the crime happens. Shot well in exotic locations but then that is all about Game offers.You have an Indian who owns a large island in Greece calling over an Indian who is a PM candidate in Thailand and an Indian who owns the largest casino in Turkey and 2 others to Greece and then spilling the dark secrets he has on them out. And the premise that movie starts off on ends there as it suddenly shifts track to a whodunit with a murder and the folks on the island being prime suspects. And after that the movie goes downhill and takes unbelievable short cuts. The guys buzz between different cities in the globe as if they are like 20 minutes away.

Abhinay Deo's 'Game' is just another one of those pathetic attempts at creating a 'stylish' whodunnit. Even though the stupid twists and turns are not as absurd as in the usual Bollywood whodunnits, it's still quite bad. Not surprisingly, it's full of clichés.All the characters are lacking in depth. 'Game' tries to be slick but the pacing is dreadful. There are so many scenes that just drag on and the slow motion, well, Bollywood movies should stop using that altogether. The flashbacks are repetitive and the background score is awful. The songs range from abysmal to forgettable. Abhishek Bachchan delivers yet another horrendous performance. His attempt to play cool, smart and charming is laughable. Kangana Ranaut is just as bad. She's mostly just doing the smell-the-fart act with her lips pursed. Shahana Goswami looks hot but she is wasted as is Jimmy Shergill. Boman Irani is loud and annoying as usual. On the plus side, 'Game' does capture the beauty of the locations it was shot in. Obviously, a lot of money has been thrown into this. Istanbul definitely looks appealing. So Turkey could use this movie to attract tourists.

Movie is really a blast... Bollywood took almost 3 years to produce a good film after 3 Idiots.... A very enjoyable movie, love the story, characters are placed very well, Abhishek Bachan was awesome in the movie, but Kangna Ranawat wasn't up to the mark, Jimmy Shergil was also quite weak this time. Anupam Kher was also not fully into the character but overall great job by Abhinay Deo and Farhan Akhtar and his gang....Movie's going to keep you intact till the end of it because of its strong script. If movie wouldn't have been released in Worldcup times, it would have done much better in its opening days. I like these kinda movies, don't really know about others.
