Review:
For Nicholas' (Michael Douglas) 40th birthday his weirdo brother gives him a ticket for a game called CSR (see Nicholas is a bit of a recluse and his brother wanted to engage him in something). He goes to the company and soon after life becomes pretty ridiculously awful. See it's sorta like a conspiracy or some sort of nightmare that Nicholas can't wake up from. It's very much a psychological thriller, we really aren't handed the answers but we must piece this together as things get more and more twisted. It's actually rather fun to watch and to try to guess what's happening, it's not quite as tricky as some but it's rather well written and interestingly assembled. I guess my only advice is to watch it, but don't give up on it because of confusion...holding on will pay off big time so long as you are patient!
