“The Binge” (*1/2 out of four) was a dismal comedy set in the not-too-distant future in which all drugs and drug use are illegal and highly punishable except for one day of the year; several teenagers and troublemakers (Skyler Gisondo, Dexter Darden, Eduardo Franco, and others) and the school principal (Vince Vaughn) try to get in on the action but soon realize this may be one mighty long night. Clever storyline is an obvious homage to “The Purge” but that’s about all that’s clever about it; one pretty funny scene of them bringing a cow back to life provides the only laughs in the movie. Beware of song-and-dance number in the final third and the grating soundtrack which are particularly painful. It’s movies like this that may make you check out an N.A. meeting instead.
