Michael Ledo I rate films on how well I enjoy them and not on their quality. There were scenes which admittedly had me ROFL. The film does not only satire "The Hunger Games" but also satires other films as well as modern society, an aspect which I liked. The humor was indeed stupid and even crude at times. One line from the film about a past game:"No one could anticipate Oprah would eat all the other contestants."The speech given at the end by the Samuel L. Jackson character actor had me in tears. Maiara Walsh who played the star Kantmiss Evershot reminded me of Zooey Deschanel more than Jennifer Lawrence. The actual film is short as it has a sad 10 minute blooper reel at the end.I enjoyed the film, it reminded me of "Your Highness" minus some of the crudeness. Other films spoofed include, Oz, Potter, LOTR, Avatar, Avengers, Expendables, plus more.Parental Guide: No F-bombs, but does have a lot of adult language. Censored sex scene. Male streaker with rear nudity.

invisibleunicornninja More effort was put into this movie than the movie that its parodying. True, the overall look of this movie is cheap and a lot of the humor is a bit crude, but it all works in the movie's favor. This masterpiece is a parody of the mess that is the Hunger Games and as a result there is a fantastic movie. I don't want to say a lot about this movie in the review. Its well worth just watching.

SquigglyCrunch I was curious about this movie. I didn't know the creators, and I'd seen an advertisement for it somewhere and thought "I should give that a look". So when it appeared on Netflix I decided to give it a watch. As you have probably already guessed, it was terrible. The movie is completely reliant on its humor. Considering its a parody I think that it's quite clear that this movie isn't going for a good plot or characters, so I'll just talk about the humor.The beginning of the movie is pretty funny at points, and that's about it. Everything else is absolute garbage. The funny parts at the beginning were dark and unexpected at times, and I assumed that that would be how the rest of the movie was. Considering the Hunger Games is about people killing each other, you'd almost just assume that it'd all be dark humor. But that's not the case. After that everything is either random crap that only children would find funny or pop culture references, and it's quite clear that this movie isn't for children. The pop culture references aren't funny though. It feels like the movie just throws in it and says "Haha get it, it's funny because we mentioned Nikki Minaj. Haha get it? Get it?" Something isn't funny just because it's there. Sometimes things just being there are funny, but only if done right (yes, there is a specific way to make things funny by just existing), but that's all this movie is. It's funny because you know what it's referencing. That's like saying that The Pianist is funny because it's about the Holocaust and you know what the Holocaust is and it's well-known. No, that's not funny, right? That's basically what this movie does. Now while it doesn't say the Holocaust is funny (because I think that everyone knows that it isn't), that's what its getting at. 'It's funny because its famous' is all the movie is. It's hard to explain because there's really nothing amusing about it, nor is there any reason why it would be funny. So why would anyone think that this movie is funny? I have absolutely no idea. Now while I look back at some of the random jokes and think they were funny, watching them is anything but. They're better remembered then watched. Although I try not to think about this movie as best I can, because it's better not remembered. I almost felt bad about laughing at anything by the end or else I'd lower myself as a person, so even if anything actually humorous happened in the end it was lost. Overall The Starving Games is about as funny as a steaming pile of poop. It's funny at first to a handful of people, but after that it's just a giant turd and now you have to clean it up and forget about it because otherwise your weekend will be ruined. It's funny for maybe ten minutes at the beginning, but after that it's 'funny' because famous. And that's it. It doesn't make sense (even the sentence structure doesn't, yet there's no other way to explain it), and yet it still passes as entertainment. In the end there is not a chance I would ever recommend this movie. If I were you I'd wipe any research of this movie from your internet history and just try to forget about it. Even if you're interested, don't. If you're extremely interest, don't. The only time anyone should watch this movie is if it's a matter of life and death, and even then it'd have to take a lot of convincing to make anyone watch it.

mekueny I only watched a few minutes of this film, but it was just like a pile of poop. Oh wait that's an offense to a pile of poop. If you are a hunger games fan don't watch this film. It's sole purpose is to poke fun at the hunger games. I can tell it has positively no storyline, its completely random. I think it's supposed to be funny, but its not. Not only does it make fun of the hunger games, it makes fun of lord of the rings, the hobbit, harry potter, and much more. It's completely dumb. I think my one star rating is extremely generous. Even a zero star rating would be extremely generous. I have no possible way to express my anger at the doofuses who made this movie. What if people see this and think this is what the hunger games is like? The hunger games is pure genius!!! This is, well how do you put it, uh garbage.
