Despite a few good performances and a surprisingly wild performance from Vince Vaughn, The Binge might just be the worst film 2020 has to offer with zero laughs and a lot of problematic, outdated material.

| Aug 10, 2021

The Binge should serve as a cautionary tale for how not to make a movie, much less a comedy. Even a silly story with little at stake must take some kind of form or it to work.

Ultimately, there's plenty to enjoy in The Binge, thanks to likeable characters, some inventively witty dialogue...just a shame that the central premise has so little impact on the plot.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 23, 2020

I didn't totally hate The Binge, and I actually can count more than half a dozen times that it made me laugh, and laugh heartily. Still on the fence? If you're the intended audience for this movie, you'll know after watching the trailer.

| Original Score: 2 / 5 | Sep 23, 2020

There are plenty of party movies that follow a similar trajectory as "The Binge," and you should seek those out before deciding to press play on this one.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 17, 2020

What follows are scenes that we've seen in countless teen comedies, particularly the ones bereft of character or plot.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 4, 2020

Heavy drinking might be required to fully appreciate the labored gags in this raunchy teen comedy.

| Sep 3, 2020

Burying a promising set-up under mounds of familiar ingredients, The Binge does little to leave a notable impression.

The Binge tries to give us Superbad by way of The Purge, but falls far short of the bar set by either. You've seen it all before ... and you probably don't need to see it again.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 31, 2020

If you're looking for a stupid, fun, teen get-to-the-party movie, then this is the film for you! With a surprising amount of heart (and a musical number!) this was the perfect distraction from the shit going on around us!

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 31, 2020

The Binge wants to be a teen version of The Hangover meets The Purge, but almost all the jokes and scenarios fall flat. Instead of The Binge, this movie should be called The Cringe.

| Aug 29, 2020

The great failing of The Binge is that it has no clue what to do with this premise. It works as a new way of framing very old ideas, but it has no real impact on anything that happens.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 29, 2020

No amount of booze could make this Hulu teen comedy seem funny.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 29, 2020

Isn't that bad, but certainly isn't that good, either.

| Aug 29, 2020

The Binge is as ridiculous as its premise implies, which can be fun at times, while others it's a bit like a wild ride you wish you could get off.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 28, 2020

[A] raucous, happily irresponsible party that should help locked-in, bottled-up Americans release some steam.

| Aug 28, 2020

A tedious and only occasionally amusing comedic riff on The Purge franchise.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 28, 2020

The Binge is profane, derivative, and socially irresponsible. What's not to like?

| Aug 27, 2020

Despite a few funny moments, "The Binge" is ultimately wasted potential for satire.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 27, 2020

Only exceptional in its mind-numbing inanity.
