I can't believe this,a film consisted of only two people, arguing, fighting and tricking each other in a slick manner but can still capture my attention. Two extremely clever British men are in a game of trickery and deceit. Andrew Wyke (Michael Caine), an aging famous author lives alone in a high-tech mansion which resembles one of James Bond's enemy lair after his wife left him for a younger man.Then Andrew invited Milo Tindle, a charming aspiring actor who happens to be the guy Andrew's wife is sleeping with.
However, Andrew chose to play a deadly game with Milo, a game that changes almost everything.with only two people, the strength lies in each other acting power (does such thing ever exist?) and in the patience of the audience, lucky for me, I like the way they play the "game" and how it ends.
For theater goers, this type of movie wasn't something new, rich with psycholigal layers and human insecurities. It feels like Before Sunset/Before Sunrise, but more depressing and claustrophobic with British accent.
