   Is House of games worth watching?

   • House of Games has enough interesting content, without being anything special. Lindsay Crouse has been in quite a few things I've liked, but I've never liked her. All her characters seem to be dead pan, so there isn't much to get out of it. She plays roles that require sex appeal, which she does not have.

   "House of Games" never steps wrong from beginning to end, and it is one of this year's best films. The plotting is diabolical and impeccable, and I will not spoil the delight of its unfolding by mentioning the crucial details. What I can mention are the performances, the dialogue and the setting.

   Hide Spoilers. Sort by: Filter by Rating: 7/10. Great story. Acting style is a big turn off. Lord_of_the_Things 5 May 2020. Found the story very engaging and although I saw some of the twists coming, there were enough surprises to keep my attention. One thing I can not seem to get past is the acting.
