00:00Hello, movies in a nutshell here.
00:02Today we are doing a review of a movie from 2015 called Road Games.
00:11The movie begins with a scene of someone who is in an unknown place with a body.
00:15After that, the body is hung up and buried immediately.
00:22Shortly after that, the scene switches to a man named Jack.
00:25Jack is waiting for a transport next to the road.
00:27It's a little strange because we see a sign that says that no one should be transported who is waiting on this road.
00:33We don't know what that should mean, but it's obvious that every vehicle that passes through didn't stop to connect Jack.
00:39Neither the passers-by nor the residents of this area.
00:42Jack was in doubt, he could only surrender while he was pressing his emotions.
00:46As time passed, Jack continued to walk until he saw a man and a woman fighting.
00:52Then, the man left them alone in the middle of the street.
00:56After a further conversation, it turns out that her name is Veronica and that she speaks French fluently.
01:02But she also speaks English fluently.
01:05While Jack, however, is from Great Britain and unfortunately does not understand French at all.
01:09For your information, Jack is in France at this time, but unfortunately, when he left home, he was robbed by robbers in the middle of the street.
01:16As a result of that incident, he was left without his money, phone and car that he was driving, which they also robbed.
01:23But luckily, he still has his passport with him.
01:27In the other hand, Veronica lives alone and plans to migrate to another country because there is no one here.
01:33She tells Jack how her parents both died of chronic illness.
01:37When night fell, they decided to spend some time in the woods.
01:41While she was warming her body by the fire, Veronica tells Jack that she started practicing writing her autograph.
01:47To shorten the story, in the morning Jack wakes up and notices that Veronica is no longer next to him.
01:52He decides to go to the lake for a swim.
01:55Seeing this, Jack joins her.
01:58After a joint swim in the lake, he continues his walking.
02:02Unexpectedly, just because they gave up on this situation, they find a car that will take them.
02:08However, Veronica did not look very happy.
02:11She was terrified of the situation and the person who agreed to take them.
02:15Meanwhile, this man is called Grizzard.
02:17He is a native here and does not speak English the best.
02:21Because of this, he decides to take Jack and Veronica to his house to stay and meet his wife, who used to live in England.
02:28Jack cannot refuse the invitation and they immediately leave the man's house.
02:32After that, Jack and Veronica, who arrived, immediately greet Grizzard's wife, Mary.
02:37Mary sent Jack to her room, while Veronica put Grizzard in her room.
02:41After Mary left Jack alone in her room, Jack, who was already tired, immediately lay in bed and fell asleep quickly.
02:48When Jack woke up, it was already dark.
02:51And then he became cheerful because of the box that Grizzard had written on him.
02:55After he opened it, there were photos of Mary and Grizzard's youth inside.
03:00But we don't stop there.
03:02They also have photos of boys and girls.
03:05Based on what he saw, Jack is sure that Mary and Grizzard are not alone in this.
03:10Despite everything, neither Jack nor Veronica saw the children in the house.
03:14After dinner, Jack comes to Veronica, who was smoking cigarettes on the terrace.
03:19To get closer, Veronica tells him how she used to have a brother,
03:23but unfortunately, her brother was run over by a tractor when the two of them played hide-and-seek when they were little.
03:29Jack then returns home and joins Grizzard, who was watching TV that night.
03:33At that moment, Jack says that he has to leave the house as soon as possible because he has to travel to England with his family.
03:40Plus, Veronica is also in a hurry because she plans to emigrate to another country and continue her life.
03:46Soon after that, Jack asks Grizzard for his children.
03:49But strangely, Grizzard replies that he never had children.
03:53Jack then begins to doubt who could be the children from the photo that he almost saw.
03:58Of course, Jack was surprised by Grizzard's answer.
04:01But he didn't want to get used to it, so now he went to sleep.
04:05When Jack woke up the next day, he took a shower before leaving Grizzard's house.
04:09However, the situation in the house was very quiet.
04:12Besides that, there was no Veronica.
04:15Just when Jack began to rethink the situation, Grizzard suddenly appeared with Jack in his arms.
04:20Grizzard says that Veronica left that morning and didn't want to wake up Jack, who was sleeping.
04:25Hearing this from Grizzard, Jack became more suspicious of Grizzard's behavior,
04:30although he claimed that he had just returned and that he was repairing the closet door.
04:34In the end, Jack began to trust Grizzard after he saw the letter that Veronica left before she left.
04:40Jack was surprised after reading the letter.
04:43Unexpectedly, from the letter, Jack realized that something was wrong.
04:48Her autograph didn't match what Jack saw when they were in the forest.
04:53Unfortunately, as soon as he began to understand, Jack was interrupted by someone until he realized it.
04:59When he woke up, he was already in the car for the takeover, that is, the car we saw at the beginning of the movie.
05:04It turns out that Jack is consciously tied up and kidnapped by a middle-aged man named Delacroix.
05:10Jack immediately realizes that he is in a mental hospital.
05:14Furthermore, Delacroix no longer gives information and feeds Jack.
05:18It turns out that all Delacroix's threats were bluff.
05:21He did it simply to stop Jack from fighting him.
05:25After that, the bandage that tied his hands was removed, and Delacroix photographed him.
05:30It is not clear what the point of this photo is.
05:33Fortunately, when Jack was supposed to be injected, Delacroix's mind wandered to the furnace that was still on and from which the smoke began to come out.
05:46Jack tries to escape as soon as possible and runs as far as possible.
05:54After a long time of walking, he finds Grizzard's house.
05:57He sees Grizzard and Mary again, who are preparing to leave the house.
06:01After they left, Jack immediately enters the house and looks for Veronica.
06:05It is quite certain that Veronica was locked in one of the rooms.
06:09Without further ado, he immediately let Jack go.
06:17But unexpectedly, Mary and Grizzard immediately returned home.
06:21Fortunately, they both managed to escape.
06:28But Mary and Grizzard quickly see them running away and start panicking.
06:32In the end, they couldn't escape because they were running, and Mary and Grizzard were following them by car.
06:45As a result, Jack and Veronica have no choice but to face Mary and Grizzard.
06:50Veronica does not give up and persuades Jack to continue running to the stable nearby.
06:55Surprisingly, it was Delacroix's stable where he had just arrived.
07:02Delacroix was surprised when he saw Veronica in front of him.
07:13At that moment, Jack approaches Delacroix with a weapon, until he floats away and is pierced by a sharp metal.
07:19It is unknown what Veronica planned here, but it is obvious that she hid Jack under the couch.
07:24Also, Veronica was not satisfied with Delacroix's death and takes a knife and stabs him in the chest.
07:34After that, Mary and Grizzard enter the stable.
07:37Grizzard immediately starts talking to Veronica in French.
07:42In French, Veronica calls him daddy.
07:45In fact, he still sees her as a little girl.
07:49In other words, she lied to Jack all the time.
07:52We can also say the same about Grizzard, who told Jack that he had no children, although Veronica is his daughter.
07:58Then we find out that Veronica is a serial killer who can kill anyone for no reason.
08:04What's more, Veronica also killed her younger brother and killed him after they finished the game of hide-and-seek.
08:11Therefore, at the beginning of the film, we see the body and the person who does it, and it turns out that it is Veronica.
08:17But unfortunately, Jack is already crazy about all this and no longer wants to listen to the explanations that Mary and Grizzard gave him.
08:24Mary, who only wanted to explain to Jack in English what was going on, was immediately interrupted by Veronica until she fainted.
08:31Then only Grizzard remains.
08:34Grizzard could not do anything and had no choice but to surrender and stay behind Veronica and Jack.
08:41Before the end of the film, Veronica leads Jack out of the state with a smile on her face, just like on Jack's face.
08:47Then Jack also realizes that he will be killed by that woman.
08:51That is, from the beginning of the film we get signs, such as her driving a hitchhiker who is here because of Veronica and her work from before.
08:58Also, she ran away from her parents many times, so Grizzard had to put a sign on the street so that no one would lead her.
09:04He also did that so that his daughter would not end up in prison.
09:08On the other hand, he does not want any more deaths that increase every month.
09:12Therefore, Grizzard paid Delacroix, who works as a butcher, to put Jack to sleep and take him safely.
09:19Honestly, we don't know why Delacroix, Mary or Grizzard did not immediately tell Jack that Veronica was a killer.
09:25When we think a little better, we must know that Jack will trust Veronica with whom he was from the beginning and hear her side of the story.
