Kaufman's Game follows Stanley, a driven young man with a passion for boxing, who is keen to improve his strength and stamina. When a shady stranger approaches him outside the gym with the offer of a specially produced steroid, Stanley is drawn into the ever more violent operations of a powerful organization, unwittingly entering into a series of tests designed to prove his mettle. This is a film about power, determination and being your own worst enemy. It celebrates the archetypes of classic Film Noir, and the dark, conspiratorial storytelling technique of Franz Kafka, but with a contemporary minimalist aesthetic.
The most entertaining thing about this movie are the three 'Shills' (so far) that have submitted gushing reviews. Click on each of the reviewers and you might be amazed to find that this abomination is the only film they're reviewed. Shills and amoeba both have one thing common, just the one braincell.
The movie is one of those 'straight to the garbage bin' titles.
