Billionaire Mr Fan (Michael Douglas) receives a gift from his brother Conrad (Sean Penn) at the age of forty-eight, a game card for the CRS club. The content of the game is tailor-made for Michael, pointing directly to the shadow of childhood in his heart. Maybe life is a game, and he is the protagonist of it. Whether you perform well or not, whether it is true or not, depends on how committed you are. And if you only regard the people around you as supporting roles, it will be a bit selfish, and it will even make your life more tiring and boring. It is true that when a person has status, rights, and money, he will naturally cherish himself more and doubt the surrounding. Just like the protagonist, he dismisses a small gift, not knowing that it will change the rest of his life. Stories like this are funny, ironic, and educational.
The story of the film is very simple, it seems to happen around, but out of reach. Brotherhood is promoted in the film, and it also points to the disregard of love. It teaches us that after we are in high positions, we should not forget the past and forget the ordinary. Doubt will make your life very tiring, and it seems to be much more interesting to live with the mentality of playing games.
