Review of Reindeer Games

This was good. Rudy Duncan (Affleck) is in prison for car theft and he meets a guy there named Nick Cassidy, who has a beautiful girlfriend named Ashley. Nick fakes his own stabbing during a prison riot, and so when Rudy gets out he takes on the identity of Nick (whom he looks like) and gets with Ashley. Nick formerly worked at a casino, and Rudy (who is posing as him) is kidnapped by Ashley's brother Gabriel and his gang of thugs, who need his help in robbing the casino. He basically has to fake-help them throughout the film and he attempts to escape several times, and this all leads to an excellent ending sequence. This is full of suspense and takes place on Christmas, like many other movies that happen to come out during the holiday season. Feel free to email me with any questions or comments.
