- Synopsis
- Rudy Duncan (Ben Affleck) is a small-time car thief about to be released from jail in time for Christmas. When his cellmate, Nick, is suddenly killed, Rudy decides to take on his identity in order to meet Nick's beautiful pen-pal girlfriend, Ashley (Charlize Theron). The couple has fun until her psychotic brother, Gabriel (Gary Sinise), shows up. Gabriel and his gang want to hold up a casino where Nick had once worked, and they blackmail Rudy/Nick into going along with the scheme. Rudy has to bluff his way through the crime, pretending to be Nick in order to avoid being killed while trying to sabotage the plans of the bad guys. Will Rudy be able to outsmart the bad guys, or will he end up facedown in the snow?

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Its twisty film noir world of down-on-their-luck men and unfathomable women is vintage B-picture material, but, in the grand B tradition, the games it plays are more ambitious than successful."
-
"As late Christmas presents go, Reindeer Games is best left unwrapped."
-
"After the setup, it consists mostly of characters explaining their actions to one another."
-
"The plot's preposterous and Affleck is way too callow for a role that would have fit Robert Mitchum like a second-hand suit"
-
"Without any believable characters or situations, Reindeer Games is about as appealing as leftover Christmas fruitcake."
