Review

  • I didn't know what to expect when I rented "Two Can Play That Game," but it turned out to be the best random DVD I have rented in a long time. The writer/director Mark Brown really studied his classic romantic comedies, and it pays off. The story moved quickly. The film was consistently funny. There was sexual tension. The 4th Wall technique reminded me of "The Seven Year Itch," and it made the movie. Brown also had a classy, visual sense. Vivica A. Fox, Morris Chesnut, and Anthony Anderson were uniformly excellent. I never would have guessed I would have liked this film as much as I have. I have already seen it three times.
