“..this film leaves the most reprehensible moments unseen..”
“..an unpleasant, unsettling, cruelly manipulative and finally hateful experience, but an experience nonetheless..”
“..a horror movie in the truest sense of the word..”
“.."Funny Games" pokes fun at our bloodlust as viewers, and our tacit complicity..”
“.."Funny Games" is an interesting failure, but a failure nonetheless..”
Reader's Reviews
This movie is not going to be for everyone. The ones who look for films outside the box, clever, yet extremely disturbing, will love this movie as much as I did. If look for that straight forward film with the "twist" ending, then this film is not for you. Funny Games put a twist on the a genre that has become monotonous and hopefully inspires more unconvenional film making. Think about what you expect to happen, this movie will prove you wrong. "For politeness sake!"

posted by dmnks on Dec 24, 2008I love Michael Pitt, He's a genius, but you all are totally right this movie is not for everyone, but it certainly was for me, very clever, with an extraordinary soundtrack, simply intense. Very nice to all the Michaels.
