Headgame (2018)

Highly Overrated But Still Good

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Don't watch it it's straight garbage. All the the reviews that give it a higher score are fake

I had not seen a total rubbish movie in my whole life until this one......awful acting....awful story..awful directing .....i can't say even enough about it....it's a huge waste of time ....even for a fun night with friends.....

Just another "let's get people in a room and let them kill each other" SAW-ripoff movie, without any memorable kills. Cheap effects (Cameras in their heads? Really? And I saw that fake machete chop you did there), large plot holes (Where did the scars go? 6 hrs wandering around palates without anything happening?), bad dialog. Painful to watch. Without the fake reviews, probably gets a 2 or 3, but gave it a one just to even this crap out.

Headgame is one of those horror movies that falls into the sub genre I adore. Where you have a series of people who wake up and are forced to play a deadly game (Such as SAW, Cube, Circle and The Human Race)Upon realising that's what this is I became rather excited. It tells the story of a group who wake up with camera's attached their foreheads. If they tamper with it they will get shocked, if they remove it the vial of acid set within will kill them.They are told that only one can survive and that the exit will not open until there is only one survivor. So you know the drill, all hell breaks loose.Trouble is I think the "Hell" occurs too fast and it's all rather uninventive. Then we have the finale which is multi-tiered and it's a real mixed bag.You see I'm not sure if I like it, I think that because of the concept (Which is actually quite good) this really needs to become a franchise.The likelihood of a Headgame 2 is pretty damn remote and that's a shame as this being a single standalone movie it simply isn't meeting its potential.Headgame is a watchable effort for fans of the subgenre but is just above average compared to others.The Good:Very clever twistsGreat conceptThe Bad:Don't know how I feel about the endingDistinctly average for the most partThings I Learnt From This Movie:Having a lense attached to your head comple with vial of acid will leave no scarring or marks of any sort
