Game Night is an excellent choice for fans of Knives Out due to its blend of mystery, dark humor, and unexpected twists. Max and Annie, played by Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams, are a competitive couple who love their weekly game nights with friends. One evening, Max's brother, Kyle Chandler's Brooks decides to host a game night at his place and promises an exciting, realistic mystery game. However, things take a wild turn when Brooks is actually kidnapped by real criminals, and the group thinks it's all part of the game. The stand-out performances of the ensemble cast and the twists and turns of the plot make it a worthy watch.
