That was an excellent one.

I gave it a 7.5 out of 10

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Wonderful movie. Usually I'm very critic and don't find most comedies amusing. I loved this movie. I'm also very fond of Maiara Walsh specially in this movie. It helps ... .

This movie is hilarious, every second. The more you know about the Hunger Games book trilogy, and the 2012 Hunger Games movie, the more you will laugh. The actors whom they got to impersonate Effie Trinket and Seneca Crane look like the originals.

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.

This movie is not as bad as the IMDb rating would indicate. It has very many "1" votes for no reason at all. It sets out to spoof the popular 'Hunger Games' movies and it does it very well. Also it was filmed mostly in the Hammond, Louisiana area which pleases this Louisiana native! The actress playing the Katniss role is cute and capable Maiara Walsh as Kantmiss Evershot. Archer ... every shot ... can't miss. I think it is a very clever character name. Anyway the opening scene sets the tone for the rest. In a very serious start Kantmiss is tracking wildlife and sees a chicken on a tree branch. She pulls back and as she is about to release the arrow a friend of hers jumps up and surprises her, the arrow goes way off its mark, towards a man in a balloon gondola, hits him in the chest and he falls dead to the ground.So the rest of the movie is similar in that scenes start rather seriously but quickly go into absurdity. For those of us who don't take the 'Hunger Games' movies too seriously this is a fun diversion, just to see the clever parodies. Of course there are butt jokes, boob jokes, crotch jokes, and excrement jokes but all done in fairly good taste as evident with the PG-13 rating.The movie runs less than 90 minutes and even the closing credits have a few outtakes in it. I viewed it on Netflix streaming movies.
