Review – Surviving the Game

This abnormally stupid retelling of the trite, old “Most Dangerous Game” story features at least a couple of actors (F. Murray Abraham and Gary Busey, to be specific) who really should have known better. I guess everyone does their best with the dreadful script, but there’s just no saving this goofy tale from itself. A group of six hunters (well, five hunters and a nervous kid) coax a homeless man (Ice T) out into the wilderness and proceed to hunt him down (via ATVs, no less) like an animal. The really sad part is that the film-makers fail to take advantage of even the most obvious points in the plot where an interesting twist might have been inserted. See if desperate
