When discussing the best modern comedies, Game Night feels severely overlooked. What starts with a group of friends having a game night snowballs into a Clue-esque catastrophe as their role-playing game threatens their lives and puts them in increasingly absurd situations. Or perhaps the chaos was inevitable since game night hosts Max (Jason Bateman) and Annie (Rachel McAdams) have repeatedly kept their games a secret from their awkward police-officer neighbor Gary, played by a chilling Jesse Plemons. With all its twists, turns, and laughs, this comedy begs to be seen on the big screen. – Mattea Gallaway Read a full review of Game Night.
