About the game

Movie Night is a cooperative game where you and your friends try to think of the perfect movie to watch together. Tap into your collective movie knowledge and come up a movie everyone can agree on — before time runs out! At the start of the round, draw a card for the “Movie has…” column. For example: “Female Main Character.” When the group has named a movie matching that description, flip the next description card. If it fits the movie you just named, add the description to the “Movie doesn’t have…” column. For example, for round one, Frozen was named as a movie with a Female Main Character. In round two, the description Animation was drawn. Now, the group has to name a movie that has a Female Main Character but doesn’t have Animation. The Hunger Games! Keep doing this until you flip five descriptions and name a final movie. Do this all within the time limit to win! Movie Night contains 36 cards as compared to 18 cards included in Apropos of Movies.
