Most Dangerous Game (Roku) -- S: Christoph Waltz, Liam Hemsworth -- Premieres 5/20/21




Desperate to take care of his pregnant wife before a terminal illness can take his life, Dodge Tynes (Liam Hemsworth) accepts an offer to participate in a deadly game where he's the prey. This dystopian action-thriller explores the limits of how far someone would go to fight for their life and their family. Let the games begin.




All 15 episodes are up now. I watched the entire season last year when this aired on Quibi. It's actually pretty good.

This was renewed for a 2nd season by Roku. It will have a new lead actor. Waltz is returning. He is the main villain in the series.

I mentioned my thoughts above. I enjoyed season 1. But, it is just a 2 hour movie broken up into 15 segments. If that doesn't interest you, that's fine.

I watched it as a movie, same as Quibi's The Fugitive. Both were OK, but pretty forgettable. The storytelling seemed to be from 20-year-old-tv-shows, so was the look.

This is one of the better Quibi shows now on Roku along with "The Stranger".

I've found the majority of the released scripted shows tedious to sit through. Still waiting for Sam Raimi's show to appear.

Bump. This has now been re-edited as a 2 hour Amazon Prime movie.

Amazon Amazon

It's from the EP of Reacher

Sweet. I don't mind a good number of the Quibi programs but watching them in 9 minute increments with intros and outros over and over again is incredibly tiresome on a TV.
