Movie Review: Funny Games Review (2007)
Critic Reviews:
Be warned. Sitting down to watch the new Michael Haneke movie, “Funny Games,” may induce a chronic attack of déjà vu, and no wonder. This is a scene-for-scene remake of an old Michael Haneke movie, also called “Funny Games,” released here a decade ago.
The new Hollywood edition of "Funny Games," writer-director Michael Haneke's clinical reenactment of his Austrian torture-comedy experiment from 10 years ago, is an attempt to replicate the earlier study under English-language conditions.
This movie does what THE STRANGERS and VACANCY did, but does it better.
