Game over, man!

Game Over, Man! is a 2018 American action comedy film directed by Kyle Newacheck, written by Anders Holm, and starring Holm, Adam DeVine, and Blake Anderson, all of whom previously collaborated on the sitcom Workaholics.  It follows three down-on-their-luck housekeepers who must save the day when the Los Angeles hotel where they work is taken hostage.  The film was released on March 23, 2018 on Netflix, but was panned by critics.

Three friends, Alexxx, Darren, and Joel, work as housekeepers at a luxury hotel in Los Angeles and are about to pitch their video game to get it financed by their potential benefactor Awadi, the Bey of Tunisia.  They pitch their proposal at the bey's party, but the hotel manager confiscates the check the bey gives them and fires them.  Moments later Awadi is taken hostage by terrorists.

The inexperienced trio narrowly escapes the terrorists;  meanwhile the Bey is forced to access information for an offshore account which the terrorists' hacker is trying to drain.  The trio crash through the window where the hacking is in progress, thwarting it.

Mr.  Ahmad, Bey Awadi's personal attaché, is shown to be the mastermind behind the terrorist threat, discovered when Alex calls him with the hacker's phone.  On television he demands 500 million dollars or he will kill one hostage every 15 minutes.

 One of the terrorists, whose boyfriend the trio killed, takes them to the hotel's spa to torture them.  They attack and kill him, then rig his body with a version of their invention, a remote-controlled power suit.  Sending him into the conference room as an initial attack, they themselves then enter with automatic weapons.

Mr. Ahmad soon escapes, heading to the helicopter on the roof. The trio follows with what seems to be the ransom money. They convince him to take the money but leave Bey; as the helicopter heads off it explodes, as they rigged one of the bags with exploding collars Ahmad had used to execute hostages. The trio saves the lives of the remaining hostages in the building, one of whom gets them rich developing a video game based on them and partying in a Jet that is soon attacked by an armed group.
