This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

I really like these guys from Workaholics... and at first, I thought they let me down. But it kicks in as soon as the siege begins. And there are two of the funniest scenes I've seen in a film this year - the "warning shot" Mexican stand-off and the climax with Daniel Stern's member being tossed about -- which might just be the smartest take on the recent Hollywood sexual harassment scandals I've seen yet.

Scanning through the other reviews here... I'm way in the minority on this. But I suggest going in to this knowing that it is juvenile, vulgar and and not to be taken too seriously... and perhaps take an edible as well.

This popped up on Netflix at the perfect time for me to chuckle, go "you know what, why not check it out. Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised."

I pushed myself to just keep going three times through the first scene and made it to 6:09.
Review by davidehrlich ★★ 4

The only convincing explanation for the existence of “Game Over, Man!” is that the brain trust behind Comedy Central’s “Workaholics” got really high on salvia one night and started to wonder what a remake of “Die Hard” might look like if it were written by Judd Apatow, directed by McG, and financed by whatever spare change they had in their pockets. How else to rationalize an action-comedy in which three burnout white dudes (suffering from some very severe bromantic tension) wind up going all “Pineapple Express” on the terrorists who raid the hotel where they work, take a handful of celebrity hostages, and amputate Daniel Stern’s dick? Stranger things have happened, especially on Netflix.

“Game Over, Man!” is exactly the…

If die hard ate a dodgy paul blart curry this would be the mess it left in the toilet.

guy#1 said to guy#2, after having just killed #2's boyfriend, "IM SORRY I KILLED HIM. I'LL BE YOUR BOYFRIEND!" while being choked by #2 and i laughed so hard i started to choke as well
Review by Dawson Joyce ★★

A comedic homage slash riff on Die Hard whose existence is pointless considering the fact that Die Hard is already a very funny film to begin with, Netflix's Game Over, Man! may have a committed cast and some decent gags here and there, but the overall affair is just a dull, tone-deaf, mostly unfunny experience that has the visual panache of a sitcom and the feel of an overlong episode of Workaholics than it does an actual feature film.

Review by AshReviewer ½

This movie is not funny, all the jokes was terrible, the action was just dumb. It only relied of dick jokes a lot and of course its dumbass Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen. You're not fooling me too. The director is also a dumbass. What made me put this movie down to a 0/10 was Blake comes outa gay, this is bullshit, if you want to make a gay movie like Brokeback Mountain or Call Me By Your Name, then make it. Don't pull some stupid bullshit out of your ass to make me laugh, and a guy eats another fat guys asshole, I was like fuck this movie now, I want to drink and soak my eyes with bleach because of this scene. This two scenes alone made me want to burn the house down. Don't watch this movie.
Review by Logan ★

I ended up missing the first 40 minutes of this and started watching it because it was on and I have a question for people who've seen it, is it worth going back to see the first 40 minutes?
Because from what I saw this had really bad comedy, flat direction, not great pacing, bad editing, bad character writing and comedic performances. But maybe the first 40 minutes were masterfully crafted??

All I can say is that from what I've seen, it's real bad. The only reason I gave it a 2/10 is the occasionally neat neon lighting (which I'm a sucker for), the occasionally ok score and the fact that the movie took its gore to a surprising degree. Like fuck, it goes quite far with the gore and I was shocked. I liked that, and really only that
Review by Rian Nathani ★★½

Too much Adam Driver dong, too few actual jokes. But, you know, the humor is #edgy.

Review by thori ★★½

Überdrehte Netflix-Comedy-Variante von STIRB LANGSAM in dem drei verpeilte Zimmer-Boys mit viel Penis-Humor gegen eine Horde Geiselnehmer den Kampf aufnehmen. Überrachend hart, manchmal sogar witzig meist aber peinlich zotig. Mit ganz netten Cameos.

It has a few laughs, but it’s pretty much an unpleasant experience from beginning to end. I pretty much checked out once the dog exploded.
