Fair Game



Fair Game is a political drama. I think they wanted it to be more of a political thriller but it wasn’t thrilling. Interesting, yes. Thrilling, not so much.

What I liked:

  • Naomi Watts was excellent. S
  • ean Penn wasn’t bad either. 
  •  There were a lot of familiar TV faces playing supporting characters: Susan from Friends, Phil from Modern Family, Roy from The Office, Dr, Hahn from Grey’s Anatomy, etc. Wish there was more of Phil…
  • The story is based on true events and it was interesting to see how it all unfolded.


What I didn’t like:

  •  It started slow, sped up a little, and then slowed back down again. 
  •  The movie never got quick enough to call itself a thriller. 
  •  You wanted to find out how it all turned out but you were not at the edge of your seat waiting.
