Game Over, Man! Review: 5 Ups & 5 Downs
2. The Shockingly Brutal Violence
Perhaps the most surprising thing about Game Over, Man! is just how gory it is. Seriously, there is some genuinely gnarly, cringe-inducingly brutal violence in this film that wouldn't feel out of place in a serious thriller or even a torture porn film. And yet, they still just about land on the right side of WTF here.
Genitals are cut off, the side of a man's face is cleaved away with an industrial meat slicer and bombs are liberally used to explode both humans and animals. It's all wrought with impressive - and plentiful - gore effects, even if its excessiveness may catch those off-guard expecting something a little lighter.
Still, the blood-letting is so cartoonishly exaggerated that it's usually played for something approaching laughs, though it may also cross the line for some audiences.
