The Binge 2: It's a Wonderful Binge

Save yourself 1hr 38mins & skip this one.

The is the worst Christmas movie i have ever seen, in-fact its one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

The acting is awful & it has actors I usually think are great!

The story is so weak and poorly scripted & the comedy simply fails to deliver as its so forced. There is even awkward pauses after scripted jokes, i guess to allow the level of audience they are aiming to time to let the joke soak in.

I have watched 1000s of movies & some are good and some are bad. This jumps into my top tem worst films I have ever had to sit through. Its boring to the max.

If you want a entertaining funny drug movie watch Cheech & Chong and leave this movie in the trash where it deserves to be.

Was very surprised I actually enjoyed this, I vaguely remember watching the first Binge and finding it super predictable and immature and not in a fun way. The sequel finds its stride in combining with Christmas and also using more of an ensemble cast of varying ages/personalities (the first was teen boys I believe which has been done over and over and over, think Superbad but D list version).

The second the mom's bf walks out speaking in a Glenn from Superstore-esque voice and the main character is like "who the f is this?" I was pleasantly surprised by numerous moments that caught me off guard as truly funny.

There were several out-loud laughs, some fun talent added to the cast including a whiny Kaitlin Olson from It's Always Sunny, a raucous Santa Claus played by Nick Swardson (Grandma's Boy), Tim Meadows from old school SNL, Eduardo Franco from Stranger Things, Danny Trejo (from everything), and more. The voiceover guy sounds like Morgan Freeman but isn't, which is also a random comedic touch. Several nostalgic throwback references to holiday movies and classic comedies to add to the fun.

Of course, this isn't some milestone comedic masterpiece, but most people watching it just want something silly to put on during a holiday party or just getting stoned with some friends, go ahead. You might actually laugh for once.

Like the title says, this was painful to sit through and I've got a high tolerance for bad late-night comedies.

The movie itself looks terrible, it has the cinematic flair of an All-State commercial.

Tim Meadows is probably the only bright spot in the entire movie, which seems to be 4 disjointed plotlines pasted together in editing with little regard for telling a cohesive story. The two main characters are barely in any scenes together beyond the opening and closing minutes.

The entire premise of the movie is about drug-fueled Christmas mayhem and I don't think anyone started doing drugs until like half way through the runtime.

Overall, it just feels like such a wasted opportunity.

Is it even possible to dislike a Christmas movie full of actors I love that is meant to be watched while on drugs? Yes. Yes, it is very possible. I enjoyed the first film for what it was and spent many late nights watching it laughing. It's A Wonderful Binge however just wasn't enjoyable. I know when the filmmakers wanted me to laugh, but the laughs never came unfortunately. I chuckled a few times here and there, but I found myself checking the amount of time left until it was over more than once. I'm sure that some people will enjoy this movie but for me this is on par with Caddyshack 2 when compared to the original.

Definitely not your traditional Christmas movie, but honestly I enjoyed it even more than the first "Binge" movie. The movie was structured with many references to classic Christmas movies we've all seen, but often with hilarious twists and drug induced fantasies. Every scene felt like it's own skit, and if you are looking for a dumb, enjoyable movie just to laugh at I say check this one out! ESPECIALLY if you liked the ridiculousness of the first one. The movie was obviously not an Oscar winner, but it had so many fun characters and one of the funniest casts I've seen in a long time. Worth a watch, honestly worth a few watches.

I recommend watching it with a group of friends too, with a drink in your hand!
