Synopsis

Six sportsmen, ranging from an ex-CIA agent to a Wall Street tycoon, ask a homeless and penniless man Mason (Ice T) to lead them on a hunting expedition through the woods of the Pacific Northwest. However, the moment the men are isolated in the wild country, and their high-powered guns are loaded, Mason immediately becomes their prey in a vicious and twisted game of man versus man. A taut action movie with good performances. Music by Stewart Copeland.

4.0 out of 5 stars The running man out in the wild!, 12 Sep 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Surviving The Game [VHS] [1994] (VHS Tape)
In a nut-shell rutger Hauer seeks out Ice T to be the latest in a long line of hunted prey. Offering Ice T money, food and a hair cut, he takes T up to his ranch deep in the forest. There he and some of his rich colleagues set T free and track him down. Picking them off one by one T manages to survive. Hauer eventually gives up and returns to the city closely followed by the ice man. Now ice T uses his street knowledge to carry out his revenge. Well worth a look

2.0 out of 5 stars SURVIVING JUST ABOUT, 22 Jun 2007
By Jason Thorne (England / Oxford) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
I bought this film because of the review below thinking we were in for a hidden gem of a film. Being honest I was a little disappointed, it had the making of the Classic Rambo but it fell short. The cast,location,storyline and camera work were all there it just lacked that bite that keeps you interested. The chase and moderate action just about kept this a watchable film the start and end of the film were not good. I will sat Gary Busey took the honours in the acting for the short part he played.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Most Dangerous Game, 31 Oct 2009
By Pyke Bishop (Birmingham, UK) - See all my reviews
Surviving the Game is a 1994 action film directed by Ernest Dickerson, starring Ice-T, Rutger Hauer and Gary Busey. It is loosely based on the short story The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell.

The story has been adapted for film numerous times. The most significant of these adaptations was RKO's movie release of the same name The Most Dangerous Game, released in 1932.

Jack Mason (Ice-T) is a homeless man from Seattle who loses his only friends - a fellow homeless man and his dog - on the same day. Dejected, Mason attempts to commit suicide when a soup kitchen worker, Walter Cole (Charles S. Dutton), saves him and refers him to businessman Thomas Burns (Rutger Hauer). Burns offers Mason a job as a hunting guide.

Flying to a remote cabin in the Pacific Northwest surrounded by hundreds of acres of woodland, Mason meets the rest of the hunting party, all of whom paid $25,000 for the privilege of being there. The party includes Doc Hawkins (Gary Busey), the founder of the hunt, a psychotic psychiatrist who specializes in psychological assessments of CIA agents. The other hunters include Cole (who picks the "game" for the hunt), a Texas "oil man" named John Griffin (John C. McGinley), a wealthy man from Wall Street named Derek Wolfe Sr. (F. Murray Abraham), and his son, Derek Wolfe Jr. (William McNamara), who is at first ignorant of the true purposes of the hunt. The following morning Mason is awakened with a gun in his face by Cole, who explains that the men are not hunting any animals, but rather Mason himself.

Without giving too much away, this is a tense action-thriller. The film boasts some great lush/dense woodland scenery of Northwest America, alongside some good performances provided by the ensemble cast of strong actors (whom are all male by the way). The roles of the actors are believable, and helps give a little more life to the characters they are portraying. The soundtrack (by Stewart Copeland) is good and fits in with the atmosphere and general pacing of the film.

DVD content is kept to an absolute minimum featuring only a chapter selection, although the film is offered in the widescreen format.
