Featured reviews
Such a funny and well made movie. Tournament is made for everyone - there is no need to be a card player to be able to follow along. If you like a good laugh, this movie is definitely for you! The characters have so many different personalities that one is bound to find a relatable favorite. There are a lot of hidden gems that are found by re-watching the movie.
I have watched this film more than once and really enjoyed the characters. And their witty sense of humor. If you are a gamer or not, you will enjoy this film.
As a Gamer I loved this movie I'm so many ways. But I imagine you don't have to play table top games to enjoy- just a great comedy. Before Quarantine we spent a lot of time in Game shops. Miss it but watching this made me feel a little more like my home away from home. Witty banter and entertaining comedy perfect during this crazy time.

I was completely hooked within the first ten minutes of this movie. Skeptical at first, since I am not a gamer, I was pleasantly surprised at how much this movie appealed to myself, my husband and our two teenage children. It had everything you want in a movie - competition (hence the name), humor and even a little romance. The actors were amazing, very entertaining - left me wanting more.
Highly recommend this movie to all, gamer or not - it's a must see!!!
This is a movie about board games. That being said it is not that attractive to everyone a like a action movie or a superhero movie.
But, again, you do not need to know everything about board game to appreciate this movie. It is just humor conversations and great performance.
The dialog writing and casting plus acting is really cool. Such variety choices of characters. And they are standing out. I keep laughing while watching it the whole time.
This is good story telling.
