I mix between "The Game" with "The man that knew too little", with sparks of "The Naked Gun". I usually dislike Bateman, but with Rachel McAdams is way easier to be good. The script is great, you have every kind of joke possible and most land perfectly.

I watched "Game Night" on an 8-hour flight back from Denmark immediately after watching another comedy, "Blockers." While "Blockers" had some funny moments, compared to "Game Night" it came across as a random assortment of gags, and the importance of a tight script in a comedy was made clear in the comparison."Game Night" is very funny, mostly because of the winning combination of Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams, but this is the rare comedy that gives all of its actors moments to shine. Good, funny comedies are extremely hard to come by, so if you've been searching in vain for one, give this one a try.Grade: A-

With the birthday of a friend coming up,I started looking for a movie that she would enjoy. Wanting to go for something that she could just watch and relax to over the summer holidays, comments from a fellow IMDber led to me thinking that it was a good time to open the game board.View on the film:Reuniting with Jason Bateman after writing the Horrible Bosses duo,John Francis Daley & Jonathan Goldstein turn from writers to directors flows with impressive ease,as they and cinematographer Barry Peterson show an eye for stylish set-pieces, that includes extended,one-shot tracking shots around an entire house,and the blending in of tracking shots. Showing their writers side, Daley and Goldstein mix snappy group one-liners with Action Comedy hits which raise the stakes of the game.Balancing between funny sweet and raunchy dialogue, the screenplay by Mark Perez plays the game with a really solid mystery, as the lively gags are built on the group unwittingly placing themselves in dangerous situations, where the seriousness of the threats,makes the groups anxieties hit the punch-line targets. Joined by terrific supporting turns from Sharon Horgan, Jesse Plemons and Michael C. Hall, Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams give utterly charming performances as Max and Annie, thanks to McAdams sass playing off of Bateman's awkwardness as they get set to play the game.
