Milton Bradley\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s abstract strategy game transforms into an apocalyptic race against time in this sci-fi blockbuster, starring Ryan Gosling and Rihanna as technocratic dictators (and ex-lovers) locked in a perpetual war of mutually assured destruction and reconstruction on the planet Ouroboros. After erecting, then annihilating, exquisite tech-noir skyscrapers and impossibly high vertical farms using strategically placed death discs, it is left to a brilliant but raunchy elderly mathematician (Betty White) to unite the ex-lovers with a perfect-play strategy inspired by James D. Allen and Victor Allis, who solved the game on Earth in the late \u00e2\u20ac\u212280s. Catchphrases from the game\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s TV commercial \u00e2\u20ac\u201d \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Here, diagonally\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Pretty sneaky, sis\u00e2\u20ac\u009d \u00e2\u20ac\u201d are incorporated into the film\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s final moments, when the formerly self-centered Gosling asks the formerly obstinate Rihanna how she would like to be kissed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
