Massive win from _Game Night_, had no expectations going in, but it ended up totally thrilling not just me, but the whole group I watched it with. One of 2018's stronger entries thus far.

Would strongly recommend you give it your time._

Decided I needed a fun movie to watch tonight and this one hit the spot again. Laughed numerous times and the cast, Bateman and McAdams especially, was amazing. **4.0/5**
