    Aaaaaaaah!

    ★★★½

    Very very weird but very very engaging. Its biggest success is that despite the utter lack of dialogue, the viewer should not find it hard to empathise and understand the characters, perhaps proving the film's point that we're not as far from being animals as we would like to believe.

    ★★★

    If I'm honest, this film didn't live up to my expectations. The satire is fairly funny, but the actual jokes are really just few and far between, and some of them just... aren't funny. Kim Jong-il pronounces his 'L's as 'R's. What utter comic genius! The humour here really lies in the film's absurdity, which there's an unfortunate lack of, though it's good when it's there.

    I also don't quite agree with the film's politics, which I'm trying not to let affect my view of it as an art piece, but probably subconsciously does anyway.

    Sometimes, a film is flawed, and doesn't quite hit the nail on the head with everything it's going for, but still has enough spirit and character to provide a thoroughly enjoyable experience anyway. Game Night is undoubtedly one of these films.

    Style over substance, but MAN, that style.

    Shame about the extremely underdeveloped characters though. Especially Lily James, she was barely a person. This felt like the one glaring flaw in the movie.
