The Binge

One critic called it depraved and indeed it is but in all the right ways. Amusing and ridiculous a great silly movie.

It had it's moments of chuckles, and was a nice parody of "The Purge", but when it turned into a song and dance musical, it got annoying and unbearable. Not sure who'd bright idea that was, but had that been cut out, with the shorter run time, it would've been watchable. Never mind all the bogus reviews pretty much all the ones above a 7. I guess the producers lost faith in the movie as well to resort to these tactics. If you're going to watch it, just FFWD past the useless song and dance parts. It's a generous 5/10 from me

I love this genre of movie and this offering is on par with other recent entrants..Project X, Booksmart, Good Boys, etc. Vince Vaughn is on point in his comedic roots. Skyler Gisondo delivers am elevation of his character from Santa Clarita Diet, and Eduardo Franco (from Booksmart) takes his opportunity to steal the spotlight. I was unfamiliar with Dexter Darden before this film, but he is the heart and soul of the film. Awesome spin and an original idea!!

A movie for simpletons, by simpletons and this simpleton enjoyed it!

Vince Vaughn quietly works his way through the movie like Robin Hood, stealing from his co-stars and giving it to the audience. He is sensational.

The other key members of the cast deliver well. I did note that Skylar is well on his way to being type cast as he only seems to play one character.

There are definite low points in the film with some of the jokes simply tragic. These shortcomings are made up for by some top notch funny moments.

The Binge is an amusing movie that will deliver a laugh but it should have never delivered a sequel :)

As a spoof, I think it works. It is silly but not over the top silly. It provides the brainless escapism that we need sometimes.
