negative · AI labelView post →We finally watched Buddy Games 2, and I’m seriously concerned the whole cast was tripping balls the whole time making that movie - Jensen included 🤣
negative · AI labelView post →Day 247/365: Buddy Games. I wish I could erase this movie from memory. they took a decent idea (and its based off their real life) but made it horrible. So disappointing.

neutral · AI labelView post →https://www.cbs.com/shows/buddy-games/ Watched the first episode of buddy games. Not bad. Just teams of regular people doing some challenges similar to things you’ve seen on survivor and the challenge. They’ve got a lot of heart and I think this is gonna be a fun show to watch. #realitytv #buddygames #nowwatching #paramountplus #cbs
positive · AI labelView post →Boring watch, won't watch again, and can't recommend. If you thought the responsible family aspect of "Grown Ups" was a bit much, then this is a much more juvenile version with guys of the same age and lower quality, in general. The highlight memorable moments are putting balls on someone's face, selling all their belongings, and this summer camp game on steroids where they do stupid things just to see who will actually do it. Basically Jackass, but...less? Olivia Munn is by far the best thing…
negative · AI labelView post →Despite efforts to wrap this film in a friendship bow to balance out the toxic BS, it doesn't succeed. Audiences aren't stupid. Sure, we indulge in campy, tacky romances and Christmas fare from time to time, but at least those films are honest about what they are trying to be.
