Minor Spoiler: the game


What is the name of the guessing game Jack and Frank are playing at the start of the film?

I've really never heard or seen anything like it before. It is a little like these games they have at restaraunts where clues pop up but the more clues that pop up as time passes the lower the score bar goes.

Honestly it looked completely made-up.

Frank would come up with a riddle and arbitrarily assign points to the correct answer

It was just his way of amusing the kid

You notice he suddenly made it about "all the points" when he wanted to distract the kid from his parents' fighting

It's definitely a neat game though.

People b!tch and complain about car rides these days and how kids are so spoiled these days with DVD players in the car, instead of playing old time car games like ABC billboard order, or ABC license plate order (although my mom made those games up)

I just find it interesting that he's doing it the old fashion way. Teaching this rich kid you can have fun in the car without video games and DVD players by playing this neat game.

Therefore Jason statham, the kid, or one of the other crew members had to play this game growing up and decided to put it in the movie.

"Be excellent to each other...And....Party on!"
