10 Movie and TV Picks for February5 of 10
Game Night | Opens in U.S. Theaters Friday, Feb. 23
As we head deep into Oscars season and contemplate the many heavy, serious, and consequential stories crafted on the big screen of the past year, it's good to pause for a bit and consider some movie fare designed just for pure escapism. And this caper, starring two of my personal faves, Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams, seems to serve up just the right mix of comedy, intrigue, mystery, and action. The movie follows a group of a friends who meet up for a murder-mystery night and end up getting pulled into something far more perilous and real. Co-directing the proceedings are John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, whose most recent collaboration was scripting the crowd-pleasing and surprisingly funny Spider-Man: Homecoming. — Bret
