    The packaging is great and that's why I purchase it in the first place. I love the movie the game and it's one of David Fincher's best movies. However I was very disappointed in the fact that I couldn't get a store pick up and paid for shipping when the store actually physically sold it before the street day. I got an exchange even because the digital copy wouldn't work and the second copy wouldn't work either I'm about to return it for the third time to see if I can get a code but if not I might have to forego this purchase all together because I want both the digital copy and the physical item self. Other than that great design and very cool artwork

    I really want the Criterion version of this movie as released on Blu ray, however, I'm also "cheap", waiting for used copies to drop below $15 shipped. In the meantime, I'm happy to upgrade my DVD version of this movie to this Blu ray edition - it may be lacking in special features, but for me for now that's OK. David Fincher's vision for his movies is again clearly seen and felt in this one. I always find Michael Douglas easily watchable in all his films, especially this one, seems like a role tailor-fit just for him.

    When I first watched this movie, I felt like I had stumbled onto a secret that I wanted to let everyone in on. I wanted to make sure everyone I knew watched this. Probably as close to a "perfect" movie as you will see. All the twists and turns you could want in a movie. Douglas at the top of his game (he does play the wealthy man with such ease). Penn does a masterful job and the criminally underrated Deborah Kara Unger is superb. If you haven't seen this movie, you are doing yourself a disservice.

    Stellar cast with Michael Douglas and Sean Penn, this is another great film by David Fincher. There is a Criterion blu-ray release for this film which comes with substantial amount of extras, while this blu-ray release is just bare bones with the feature film without any special features. Video and audio quality are great. If special features isn't worth your consideration, then this version for around $6-7 is the best way to go rather than getting the Criterion for $25+.

    Saw this in the theater when it first came out, It totally fooled me until the very end. I don't know how many twists in the story. As soon as I thought I had it figured out, it would sucker punch me once again. I grabbed my brother and took him to see it for a 2nd time the following day. Stood and clapped both times at the ending...I loved to be tricked by a good 'who-done-it'. Brilliant story, wonderful casting.

    This movie takes you on a wild ride, and you will either willingly go along with it and end up becoming a huge fan, or dismiss it as a complete fantasy. It is completely unique, however. I can think of few movies where the bulk of the emotional content takes place in the last 10 minutes. I loved the end of this movie. Great twists, excellent acting (one of Micheal Douglas' best roles), and fantastic cinematography make 'The Game' not-to-be-missed!

    Exciting and Memerable View

    Plot starts slowly and develops a foundation for things to come – the game is slow to start but be careful of what lays ahead. Interesting plot-line that holds your attention but it’s a “twister” that is hard to predict. This is an extremely high intensity thriller and there’s that double-twist ending that’s satisfying and for good measure another surprise ending pops up. Its view is both exciting and memorable!

    I haven't seen this movie since the '90s but it's very well done and keeps you guessing until the ending, which one would generally not expect. I didn't have a copy of this, and the steelbook release of it helped to add it back to the collection. If you enjoy movies with twists and turns, this one should keep you entertained.

    This Michael Douglas film with great supporting cast (Sean Penn ) , keeps you glued to your seat. Nothing that happens will bore you. This is suspense, action and total uncertainty wrapped up in a bundle. Masterfully written , will keep you guessing at every turn , until the end. Rollercoaster ride all the way. Must , must see !!

    The near perfect paranoid thriller looks great on blu-ray, and even better with the sweet cover art. Criterion film for a fraction of the price. Douglas in one of his last great roles. If you have not seen it, think Total Recall meets Enemy of the State. Is this real? This sure seems real.

    When I initially saw this movie years ago when a friend let me borrow the DVD, I didn't like the fact that it was really what it was. But now that I have revisited this movie, really looking at the stress they put Michael Douglas through, it was intense and edge of your seat thrills.

    This David Fincher directed movie, is probably his best. This film is such a mind bending film, that you do not know what is happening, in literally the last seconds of the film. It is suspenseful, action oriented, and well acted, led by the terrific Michael Douglas.

    Once in a while you come across a great thriller. To accomplish this you have to have a great story line, superb acting and cinematography, a generous budget and an excellent styling consultant so that everything's just perfect. And The Game has all these aspects. Director David Fincher provides a really creepy, eerie atmosphere to the story. The cinematography has a dark, eerie look.

    loved this film when it came out lots of twists and turns, and still holds up today, video transfer is pretty good, but I think the film was shot on film , and the digital process left it a bit grainy but the sound is okay maybe 5.1 a good film worth the $10 I spent on it

    This is one of my favorite movies that most people have not seen. This movie keeps you guessing. Go into this movie with an open mind and be prepared. Early David Fincher at his best, and the Steelbook is embossed, and looks great.

    When I saw this a long time ago, I didn't too much care for it. But since then, I revisited it, and it actually is very suspenseful and it had me guessing. I love it and I had to get the steelbook

    Fantastically bizarre movie that's basically a constant, nearly never ending series of twists with very very serious and seemingly very sane people being pulled into escalating insanity. Fantastic steelbook design.

    David Fincher has made some of the most important films of his generation, but he isn't above delving into genre flicks. The Game is one such excursion into less substantive work, but as always, his craftsmanship elevates it. Great performances from both Douglas and Penn also make this a very solid thriller.

    This movie is a great movie that you need to watch at least twice to pick up all that is going on. The first time it, it keeps you guessing till the very end. Then watching it a second time to pick up what is happening in smaller details. Something like this "game" would be a fun experience to do in real life.
