The Game is a 1997 psychological thriller film directed by David Fincher, starring Michael Douglas, featuring Sean Penn, and produced by Polygram. It tells the story of an investment banker who is given a mysterious gift: participation in a game that integrates in strange ways with his life. As the lines between the banker's real life and the game become more uncertain, there are hints of a large conspiracy.
The film was well received by critics in spite of middling box-office returns compared to the success of Fincher's previous film, Seven.
The Game was #44 on Bravo's 100 Scariest Movie Moments.
