San Francisco Chronicle
Vulgarity is fine when it’s pure and democratic. But when it’s mixed with sentiment, it feels false. That’s the problem with Buddy Games. - 30

Movie Nation
The script is slapdash and daft, and not in a good way. And you almost feel sorry for Swardson being forced to carry it and set the “teabagging” tone. But the viewer is the victim here. - 25
Chicago Sun-Times
You wouldn’t want to spend five minutes with these insufferably juvenile jerks, let alone an entire movie. - 20
