3/10
A movie for people who don't like stories.

Warning: Spoilers
This movie is quite bad. There is a lot of heavy handed expository dialogue. You know the kind. Like one character says something like, 'Why can't you just admit you failed at running the family business 10 years ago, Dad!' and another character says something to the effect of 'Whoa big bro, are you just mad because Dad spent so much time with me and not you when we were kids?' Overall, the whole script is halting and poorly written.

Zero chemistry between this group of characters, which makes it hard to remember their relationships - who is married to whom, or in what capacity they are related. Accordingly, their reactions to the atrocities that happen are unbalanced and don't make sense given the supposed relationships.

Plot line could have been good, but is seemingly only half written. The namesake game with so much fanfare around it is easily solved within two or three questions. The reasoning for the crimes doesn't make sense. As others said, it's like Saw and Knives Out had a C-grade baby.
