"The Starving Games" has the look and feel of a talent show put on by a high school whose imminent closing has not inspired any noticeable public outcry.

Really, a movie as lame as this one doesn't merit the expenditure of snark.

Common Sense Media

Lowbrow, violent spoof with plenty of juvenile sex humor.

Rated: 1/5

Even a spoof fan has his limits and this one very closely approaches it.

It's safe to say that no one in their right mind would find any of (this) clever or entertaining.

Felix Vasquez Jr.

Cinema Crazed

[The directors] are from the Seth McFarlane school of comedy, subscribing to the philosophy that if it's familiar, even vaguely, it must be funny...

You better go find it. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/02/24 Full Review TheDiamond K This movie is so great, very funny and definitely does what it was trying to do. I love this movie so much Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/07/24 Full Review GameBro Bro screw u goons that gave it a bad rating this stuff is hardcore bussin. So freaking funny. I could stop laughing. WATCH IT TRUST. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/07/24 Full Review raw t Contrary to popular belief, I actually really enjoyed the movie! Me and my friends watch it all the time and enjoy the humor and references. It's obviously not a movie that is very serious, and the whole movie knows that it's not. The acting is top notch ( the amount of special effect to interact with? That's pretty impressive!) and the casting is genius. The one thing I would critique are the special effects and even then they're not horrible, I can understand how on a budget you might have to work with what you have. I wouldn't call it the greatest movie of all time, but it still is very entertaining and a great movie to watch if you're looking for the good comedy that movies nowadays miss. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/13/24 Full Review Elias R They succeeded at sucking 😂the movie was poorly made but the directors made it clear that it was its purpose. At least they did it with their whole chest. Plus point for not hating it completely, it was watchable in comparison to other movies.
