    A twist-filled psychological thriller

    06 December 2008
    David Fincher, director of renowned films such as Se7en, Fight Club, Alien³, and Panic Room, continues along the same ingenious lines in this film, and deserves as much acclaim as his others. The film attacks the richer tiers of society and their almost decadent pursuit of entertainment and asks whether all people do in life is somewhat desperately jump between different distractions until the end. The plot’s best quality is that it draws you in, so much better than more recent films, engrossing one in the twists and turns of the character Nicholas Van Orton, who, depressed following his father’s death and his divorce, plays a convoluted real-life game. As he sinks deeper into the game, his life and mind start to unravel around him.
