Most Dangerous Game is an action-thriller that earned two Emmy nominations. The first season follows Dodge Tynes (Liam Hemsworth), a real estate developer with a terminal brain tumor and a pregnant wife (Sarah Gadon) he’s afraid of leaving behind.
At the instruction of a nurse, he reaches out to the Tiro Fund. At the company, supposedly established to alleviate the financial struggles of terminal patients, he meets with Miles Sellars (Christoph Waltz), who lures him into a sadistic game. For 24 hours, Tynes has to evade five killers instructed to find and kill him. He can’t leave the city, he can’t stop the game, and Fight Club rules apply. In exchange for his life on the line, he will receive a cumulative USD 24.5 mn.
While it is similar to action pieces we’ve seen before, Most Dangerous Game excels in its execution. The action is brisk, and it offers a satisfying thrilling experience with notable performances, particularly from Waltz. The second season features a new prey with a fresh new story unrelated to Tynes’.
