Play the Game (2009)

A Masterpiece!

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

I watched this on a whim years ago thinking 'this looks cute... And I like Andy Griffith'. While it IS cute it is also quite funny and more involved than I expected. I will admit, as a kid who grew up with Mayberry and Matlock the racy humor tickled me. I watched it again recently to see if it still held up and I still enjoyed it thoroughly. I can't rate it a 9 or a 10 because truthfully it *is* very saccharin at times... But definitely worth the watch if you like silly but heartfelt rom-coms.

I really liked this movie. It has a little of everything, romance, comedy and a twist at the end that I did not see it coming. When I saw the cover of the movie I was like " na... It is a movie of a nursing home". But it was 9pm and I did not want to see an action, horror, thriller movie because sometimes I cannot sleep with those movies because I suffer from anxiety.So I told my husband it had good reviews and he said lets go for it. I laughed during all the movie especially with the role of the grandpa. But as a girl I love to see those movies in which those macho guys that think they have everything figured out with girls end up finding the real love. But what really caught my heart of the movie is the final part. I thought that all the movie was about him and at the end we learn all the movie was about her with that final twist.

Great movie, and story line. But Andy Griffith being a sick old man, it just goes over the edge. I cannot believe Andy Griffith would be so desperate for money to agree to this act.. He says horny, erection, sucks, talks about oral sex, its disgusting.The story line is great though, talking about relationships, and "game" landing "chicks" all that, is funny, but its a pretty terrible movie.I don't really know what else to say.The story ends well, but I wont spoil it. I just cannot believe any of these actors would really do this because it is so disgusting. Its almost a creepy type movie

I watched this movie with my family a few weeks ago. We thought it was just okay for the majority of the movie. The relationship seemed clichéd, but cute. The plot was nothing revolutionary, but it was still moderately enjoyable. I was rooting for the protagonist, David. Andy Griffith was the best grandpa... very funny and enjoyable. Come to think about it, all of the old people were great. Again though, it was nothing extraordinary. Marla Sokoloff was great, especially at the end, which is when my family and I decided that we really did like the movie. If you can last through the majority of the movie, the last 10 minutes rap it up so nicely, it will give you a chill, and maybe make you fall in love with the movie.
