The Binge

POSITIVES…

  • I generally liked the movie’s idea of being this outrageous, drug and alcohol, bro-comedy version of “The Purge.”

  • Vince Vaughn. The man still entertains me so much.

  • Got to give a shout out to Eduardo Franco as Andrew. He went all in with his character, and that deserves some props.

  • There are some jokes and funny scenes that did make me laugh. Quan. Darts. Autocorrect. Cow. Names of people who could be Lena’s promposal.

  • Those of you looking for an excuse to watch an over-the-top movie that celebrates alcohol, drugs, and sex jokes. Well here you go.

NEGATIVES…

  • The whole thing is really a bit on the embarrassingly juvenile side, with way too much pandering to its target audience.

  • It has a generally obvious and unoriginal story, with the most predictable conclusion.

  • A lot of the humor either falls flat or are just cringey. I can only take so much unfunny jokes about drugs, alcohol, sex, and pop culture references.

  • Griffin and Hags. No direct shade towards Skyler Gisondo and Dexter Darden, but the characters they play in this are just such tired, living cliche, plot tropes.

  • There’s going to be some idiots who are going to be inspired to do the stupid things in this movie.

P.S….
