The future trapped-in-a-video-game thriller Game had its first test screenings, and the results were not great. According to an Ain't It Cool News source that was in one of the screenings, the Gerard Butler-starring Game is a terrible fail and in need of a complete overhaul from start to finish. Even more disappointingly, Michael C. Hall and Butler's incredible acting abilities are buried under a mass of poor action scenes and bad dialogue. It's not surprising that the producers of Crank would unleash a fast paced movie that may be a bit confusing at times, but it's a dreadful shame to think that Hall and Butler aren't being fully utilized. Spoilers below. More »

Here's the first picture of Gerard Butler from Game, the movie about prisoners being forced to play a deadly game to the death, while they're controlled by spoiled teenagers. He looks every bit the psycho killing machine, dealing out death and destruction at the whim of his rich online controller. Writer/directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor (the Crank movies) promise "sex and violence and twisted shit from our brain," but also intense drama. Click through for details, and another pic.
