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.
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

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.
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
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!
