You will live 10 years longer by skipping this film
bozx-7131819 July 2019
Quite possibly the unfunniest thing in the world.

If you're going to make a parody, at least try and be funny. A little nuance, a little subtlety and wit really makes one appreciate your spin on something incredibly famous. But no, the viewer is force-fed a reeking, lumpy slurry of the typical lazy variety (e.g. farts and people pulling faces) all done in that cheap, childishly exuberant manner seen all too often in low-budget American comedies.

This is the sort of movie to make you hate yourself and existence itself. It's downright insulting to think any viewer would be so moronic as to find its forced and pointless attempts at comedy genuinely humorous.

Time is the most precious thing we have and if you value precious things, avoid this paper bag of vomit masquerading as a movie at all costs.

Bearable... I guess?
arnaudrivest11 August 2019
Honestly I know spoof movies never get good ratings but I watch them regardless. I loved the starving games (parody of the hunger games) so I was hoping this would be just as good. Unfortunately, it was not.

Honestly the only funny characters were Cersei and bran (ironic given their roles in the actual series). The fact that trump and the Kardashian's were a part of this movie was just so weird. Mixing 21's century stuff with game of thrones time just felt odd. A for effort, I had a laugh or two but overall it was pretty bad.

Don't waste your time
fadimerhej19 July 2019
I don't believe I watched half of this bad and boring movie. At first I liked that there is a sarcastic movie for the great show GOT but I didn't laugh once and it looks like the film the movie in phone camera. I just hated it

Maybe it's just me but the little dragon makes this movie

Maybe it's just me I know it's bad acting in a bad storyline but I found it somewhat entertaining I had nothing else to do in an hour to kill. The little dragon was my favorite.

Mad as a bag of snakes!

Purge of Kingdoms is a very politically incorrect film with a strong anti Trump message. It's funny and isn't meant to be a cleverly written movie. It's just one of those spoof movies not to be taken seriously. If your looking for a critically acclaimed movie go elsewhere as this film is as mad as a bag of snakes. A bottle of tequila may also help. Great fun.

Wonderfully Awful
jc333-555-98515610 October 2019
It is a truly terrible movie and all the better for it.

It knows that it is bad and revels in it.

The Trump Schtick was bad. The acting was "purposefully" bad. Piff the dragon was the star. Angus McFadyen using different accents - sometimes within the same speech - was inspired and the part that was most enjoyable.

It's a knockabout film, made to a budget.

It's better than sticking pins in your eyes.

I know I'm supposed to review "modern" parodies parodies on THC. I apologize for being on pure high-grade alcohol (the no longer produced - real - Cuban Havana Club Añejo Blanco) for this review.

'Nuff said. 'Cept I miss (no really, really miss) Mell Brooks.

So... title Game of Thrones and The Purge. Guessing the "Purge" is current due to the rather weak TV-series? (Hope season 2 will be okay). GoT, well, again, ''nuff said.

Good things: 1. I staid awake. Usually I fall asleep while watching these things. 2. I recognized quite a lot of the references. 3. The production values where okay. 4. Most of the Trump parody stuff was actually okay. Actor did great.

Bad things: 1 I miss (no really, really miss) Mell Brooks. 2. The story was extremely limited. As it referred mostly to season one of GoT storywise, it could have been made a number of years ago. I could have done with a White Walker or something... This is keeping in mind that I still have to watch the last two seasons... 3. Rap culture (lone survivor before "sequel rewind") is not cool outside limited parts of the U.S. 4. "Purge" parody from title was barely there (mostly used as reference).

Anyway, some money was made...

Parodies where never the height of cultural expression. But as far as movies are concerned, we know what Brooks did. We found his early predecessors acceptable (Scary Movie a.s.o.). One may even call 'Brazil' a parody of '1984'. We experienced Python and the late '70's S.N.L. eps.

This particular movie may not live up to those standards. But it's a very slight step upwards from other recent parodies. As a fan of "Blazing Saddles" and "Life of Brian", I hope it's the early start of an upwards trend. A sightly shiny pebble in what could be a sea of diamonds, rather than a lightly shiny pebble in a pile of common pebbles.

Whatever happened to enjoyable parodies like Airplane?
Misha_A21 July 2019
I have a soft spot for parody movies like Airplane, Scary Movie and even Not Another Teen Movie. Purge of Kingdoms, however, is not a parody. It's just a mishmash of terrible skits that feels more like a film major's weekend project than a studio-backed feature film.

Angus Macfadyen and Anna Hutchison will have to spend the next decade explaining why they were in this film.

It's Bad
markemorgan3 September 2022
I LOVE parody movies, even most that some rate really low. I am not a professional critic and created an account just so I could post this review. All of us know that movies like Airplane, The Naked Gun and will never be beaten in the parody category as well as the great actor, Leslie Nielsen. This film, if you want to call it that, takes bad to a whole new level. I am also a fan of GOT, so I was expecting to enjoy this. I was severely disappointed. This flick, although watching for free, I couldn't finish. Worst I have ever seen. I would rate it a 0 if available. Sucks is the word that comes to mind..

Surprisingly not the worst film i have ever seen.
Nyneke3 December 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This was pretty bad. I am not a fan of slapstick and do not tend to see the humour in randomly drawing a penis either. However this was surprisingly not the worst film i have ever seen. There were some good jokes too and even some references that could only have come from the ASOIAF books.

Missed oppertunity to use Michael Jackson's thriller during Jon Doe's dance off.

Big jokes and slapstick.
r-0718628 July 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Yep, I like it. I'm one of the rare people who liked the parody spin on Game of Thrones. It has lots of jokes, some land and some don't - but there are lots of moments that I find are really funny. Many of them are small moments of randomness or silliness. Some of these minor gags might not even get noticed by most people, but that's what was so great. You can watch it multiple times and still find background jokes in between the big jokes and slapstick. I wonder why it took so long for someone to exploit the market and mock Game of Thrones in a professional feature film? Perhaps everyone else was afraid of law suits from HBO.

Game of Thrones and Donald Trump getting lampooned!
t-7996326 July 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I've watched this countless times since it's release but it still manages to make me and my friends laugh out loud. Literally, giggling like crazy immature kids. Maybe I'm just silly but regardless of what anyone else says, I still think Purge of Kingdoms is the best pointless parody movie ever made. It's obviously taking the mickey out of all subject matter and doesn't take itself seriously.

An unwatchable borefest
Jack_Brock21 August 2019
This is one of those movies the actors must have done just because they needed to pay the rent.

This movie doesn't even compare to Airplane. The humor is unfunny.

Bad does not begin to describe this. Waste of time and effort. The acting terrible. The flow, terrible. the laughs, non existent. What a complete self serving waste of effort

Yep - this movie is REALLY bad
mjsreg25 September 2019
Every now and then a film comes along that is so bad it defies any analysis of how it got funded. This is one.

It is truly awful. To say any more would spoil the awfulness for anyone who has the misfortune to stumble across it - hopefully without paying any money to see it.

The only reason I gave it a rating of three is :

One star for the audacity of the producers to get this film funded. Another star for being able to get any form of distribution. A third star for a pretend hot blonde.

They are all types or targets in this film.
j-4369527 July 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I watched the movie, I laughed a lot. Can I explain the plot? There is none, really--only a tiny clothesline to link some of the Game of Thrones gags and characters together. They are all types or targets in this film. There are many serious messages also behind the comedy. Fun parody that achieves it's purpose.

It's hilarious!!!!! OMG Lou Ferrigno is honestly the best. If you're looking for a movie that is both comedic and has a bit of political incorrectness, this is the perfect movie. Honestly, this movie is a ten!!!
