Yes its a crappy movie, yes its dumb, yes it wasn't 100% as funny as Workaholics, but its fun, enjoyable, and silly, and for any Workaholics fan, this is good, because its essentially feature length Workaholics episode. The story is basically a spoof of the essential story of Die Hard which is awesome because I'm a big fan of Die Hard and Workaholics, and they actually made a few Die Hard jokes in an early season of the show. So sorry, if you are not a fan of Workaholics, or you were looking for a different formula, then you will be disappointing. But for this fan here, I enjoyed it and had some good laughs, and that is whats important. Whats important in film is that you enjoy yourself, and while this wasn't as outrageously funny as the show, I definitely had some solid laughs and had a goof time viewing this film.

I noticed the extremely low Metacritic score, and all I have to say is come on..... This is suppose to be a stupid and silly comedy movie, not a masterpiece of cinema by Fellini or Kubrick. As a Workaholics fan, I enjoyed to see a movie length opportunity for these three guys, and I loved to spoofing of the essential story of Die Hard. It was a fun little movie and if people take it seriously, as if its serious cinema, the of course a critic will hate it, because its not serious, its silly and over the top, and that what I came here for, I did not come here for Gone With The Wind. Over all, this Workaholics fan enjoyed this film which is essentially a Workaholics episode, and I would highly recommend this to any fan of the show.

If you've seen Workaholics this is movie is exactly what you'd expect it to be. Its stupid humor, if thats not your thing you won't enjoy it.

The guys from Workaholics star in Netflix's version of a hard R action comedy. In this world, the trio still work together, this time as hotel housekeepers. As you would expect, they do their work half-heartedly with plenty of breaks to drink various rooms's leftover champagne, use drugs and discuss inane million-dollar ideas.

One particular evening becomes more interesting than most when a group of criminals show up to take money from a rich celebrity by the name of, the Bae, who happens to be throwing a party at the hotel. The criminals are doing this because the Bae embezzled money from their company. Or his rich father did. Or something. It doesn't really matter. They're criminals. They're here to steal something. You get the idea.

It's a funny enough set up, though it's a superficial one. We also see an inappropriate hotel manager, a diligent, eager-to-please female housekeeper and the Bae's crew. They are weakly developed as characters, as is the case with virtually every character outside of the main three.

The plot is essentially the same way. One silly action sequence leads to the next without paying much mind to making anyone's actions believable. It's all excusable, since it clearly was not the movie's focus. Everyone and everything is really only here to be funny. But the lack of character development and plot coherence puts a low ceiling on the movie's potential.

Also capping the film's ceiling are the random cameos that served no purpose other than for the audience to say, "oh, hey it's that guy/that girl!" They're pretty weak and pointless. Similarly, somewhere along the way, a character awkwardly comes out of the closet. I'm not sure if the moment is meant to be funny or moving, but it's neither.

The movie succeeds in putting funny moments on screen in the way of in-your-face male nudity and plenty of crude sex jokes. It also gives us plenty of comic violence moments, some of which were gross in a funny way and others were just gross in a gross way. Other less hardcore moments of comedy come from the Workaholics trio's charisma. The guys are undeniably funny in many scenes. Those moments make me wish the entire movie dialed itself down a few levels because a tamer version of the movie could have been a better one, and one that's just as funny.

Ultimately, audiences should take this movie for what it is. It's zany. It's raunchy. It's fun. If at any point you find yourself dissecting the plot, stop. That will do no good for anyone. Instead, watch this movie through an altered lens. I'm not suggesting that you should definitely take something that alters your perception before watching this movie, but I'm also not suggesting that you definitely should not do that.

In any case, watch this movie for a laugh. Save the drama and intellect for another movie.

This film tells the story of three loser waiters who are caught up in a deadly hostage situation in the hotel they work in.

Oh wow, "Game Over, Man!" is really bad, but it is really funny. The characters are stupid, the jokes are super crude, and for a comedy it actually is unbelievably gory. The jokes make your eyes roll in disbelief, but they work. I say this film is a guilty pleasure, and people would not admit they find funny!

I'm going to keep this short and simple, if you aren't a fan of lowbrow, vulgar, and idiotic humour, this isn't for you. If you are, then you'll greatly enjoy it.

If you love lowbrow, vulgar, puerile idiotic humor, and especially if you like Workaholics, this is for you. If you don't, it isn't. So giving it a bad review simply means you don't like that sort of humor, not that it's a bad movie.

Such a good cast and such a lazy writing! It was really embarrassing to watch such a childish attempt of being funny or original. Usual plot for buddy movies (best friend, then they're not, then they're back again to being best friends), very boring and lame writing.

Ok I have been coming to IMDB for reviews about the movie I am about to watch. I see "don't waste your time" , "I will never get my hour 37 minutes back" etc. My suggestion is just watch the movie and make your own opinions and move on. Not everyone is Siskle and Ebert,this movie is what it is, a movie with laughs and action together. You might waste you time or you might forget your worries for an hour 1/2. That's what movies are about. Enjoy life.

Truly the worst excuse for comedy ever created, imo. There is no analogy low enough to describe it. In fact, Netflix, if you raised the subscriber fee to make garbage like this, and continue, I'm out. Not worth the 1 star.

If you're looking at this page you already know what to expect, this movie is basically just Workaholics the movie, the humor is low brow, some scenes are rather gross and there are a lot of dicks everywhere, but in the end it's just an entertaining movie that you can just switch your mind off to and enjoy and honestly, that's not a bad thing.

3 housekeepers in a hotel must embrace their inner heroes when terrorists take over the building Nakatomi Plaza style

Starring the obnoxiously annoying Adam Devine and a host of cameo appearances from Steve-O to Donald Faison to Mark Cuban this is a slapstick Hollywood comedy that simply wasn't funny enough.

Game Over, Man! could be broken down into three categories.

1) The moments that are funny 2) The moments that are too annoying to be funny 3) The moments that are too serious to be funny

Sadly 2 & 3 combined make up the majority of the film and though there were a few laughs to be had there simply wasn't enough for a feature film.

I've always said that Hollywood has lost its way when it comes to comedy. The reason being the formula they use, it's almost as if they are taking drama scripts throwing a few jokes in and calling them comedies. I thought based on the trailer this would be a rare exception and would be wall to wall silliness and jokes but it falls into the same pitfall. I don't want angst I want laughs!

Game Over, Man! isn't terrible it just struggles with a patchy script, an undeserving cast and the above Hollywood tropes.

The Good:

Some laughs to be had

The Bad:

Adam Devine

Needless animal death

Not consistently funny enough

Love workaholics so was looking forward to seeing it, and I was so happy that I enjoyed. It's just a dumb film with the workaholics guys and I loved it. Had me laughing out loud at some parts, if you love workaholics I'd say watch it

So dumb but I was thoroughly entertained. Loved all the references and cameos. Good watch if you just want to watch something silly, best to be stoned.

So over all the movie was kinda funny. Definitely in a cheesy type of funny BUT the movie just lost my interest when they decided to blow up the little puppy. Yes humans dying is sad and all but when you watch something helpless get hurt or killed, it kicks you in the gut and heart. This movie could have continued to be humorous until they decided to kill the cute little puppy that the asshole bad guy decided to strap a bomb to.

Really the worst movie I've ever seen. You are laughing of how lame this movie is.

3/29/18. You got it - Game Over, Man! I couldn't get to the 30-minute mark because the dialogue was so juvenile. Really, find something else to watch, or go for a walk.

I watched 'Game Over, Man' and I really enjoyed it. No, it certainly wasn't perfect and I'll get on to what I felt let it down. However, it wasn't until I looked it up online in order to review it did I realise just how much hate it was getting, some even going as far as to say that it was the 'worst movie of 2018.' It wasn't.

It's about a trio of waiters in a luxury hotel who aren't happy with their lots in life and have been spending their spare time coming up with a new way to play computer games. Then, in a convenient twist of fate, a famous rap star comes to stay in their hotel and agrees to bankroll their prototype. The only problem... terrorists take over the hotel and threaten to kill their new financial backer and it's up to them to defeat the baddies and save their investment.

If I had to sum it up, I'd probably say it's like a comedy version of 'Die Hard,' where the heroes are trapped in a confined environment and have to pick off the henchmen one by one before finally going for the head honcho. It's hardly 'high-brow' and there were times, especially at the beginning of the movie, where one of the three central characters got on my nerves as he was too annoying to be believable. The writers did seem to tone down this character as the film went on (or did I just get desensitized to him?) and give him more in the way of laughs than annoying yapping, but what really won me over was the way the writers of the film 'subverted the expectations and conventions of the genre.'

For some reason I kept thinking of 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' - a film which certainly divided its fan-base because its creators freely admitted that they wanted to 'subvert' fans' expectations of what they'd get from a 'Star Wars' film. Whereas I'm in the camp that wished 'The Last Jedi' would have just stuck to normal 'Star Wars' tropes and whatever 'subverting' didn't work there, here, in 'Game Over, Man' the way they deliberately do things that you definitely won't expect to turn up in an 'action/hostage-rescue' film really made it stand out among other films of the genre (and generally comedies in general).

It's a pretty over-the-top affair and be prepared to suspend your disbelief to truly enjoy it, but if you're a fan of action films and the cliches they normally employ, I think that would stand you in good stead to get a little more out of this film than everyone else. It's no masterpiece, but it's definitely good fun and certainly not the worst film of the year.

The humor comes off as tasteless, lazy and relies far too heavily on shock value than any sort of creative merits. Throughout the movie it comes off as though it wants to take itself relatively seriously as an action comedy, but the boring, static plot left me uninterested and there was no real sense of stakes throughout.

If you want to see the lead actors partake in Workaholics like fun, you'll probably be left bored through the large portions of the movie that try too hard to be a reputable action film.

The lead characters are boring, unlikable and the only redeeming quality of the movie is Neal McDonough's character for the handful of times he's on screen, but even an actor of his stature had difficulty delivering a compelling performance given the awful script he had to work with.

You can probably miss this one unless you're a diehard Workaholics fan, but even then this movie will probably be a waste of your time.

I thought it was funny.

It's a 'stonner' movie.

If you haven't seen their tv show workaholics then it might not work for you.

Silly, tune out.

As a usual fanatic lover of comedies like these, I was ready for laughs. Unfortunately, while I did get in a few laughs (which is why I felt satisfied putting 1/10), I was mostly left very unhappy. Generally horrible humour, tasteless filmmaking, and sure to leave you feeling you just wasted your Saturday morning. There were several funny moments, but those felt pretty smashed by everything else. Even the "PLOT TWIST!" left my entire watch party (15 of us!) super disappointed. There was some real potential for seal-laughing in the general outline, but it was just lost in translation.

Don't listen to the negative reviews, the movie is a lot of fun. It's vulgar, obscene, full of crude and almost surreal situations. It is what it should be. FUN, FUN, and FUN. But since there a scene where they kill a dog, everybody is condemning the movie. "Disgusting". AS IF! As if thousand of Hollywood movies containing millions of murders and atrocities of any kinds, video games based exclusively on killing people, are perfectly OK but the fictional death of a chihuahua is just to much to accept. Somebody in the reviews called it INHUMANE CRUELTY, nothing less. That's the level of movie critique we find here. Thank you very much.

I love dogs, when the dog got blow away i turn it off, anyone give this garage a 5 or up the people don't love animals, thats animal abuse, this movie suck burn it down
