1/10
Don't even rent it. Watch it at your friend's house.

As told by my friend, not modified. Watch out for possible spoilers Indian movies don't need spoilers, all the stories are the same and predictable, but still!

Well, Shankar has depicted the way today's boys are. He stresses that we have to accept the fact and let them be free.

So, the next time his mother and wife return from shopping in Ranganathan Street or Kumaran Silks and complain of the harassment of the BOYS, he will coolly say 'this is the way today's boys are. nothing wrong in it. let them have their own way. In course of time, they will change'.

And as is the case with Shankar's movies, Boys also has lots of messages for youngsters like * Don't worry, if you are not able to study. Studies are not worth it. Every one who can't study, can start a pop troupe and win MTv awards. *If your parents pester you about your studies or disapprove your love, just get the hell out of there. You can always survive without your parents' help. After all, what are the temples and 'annadhaanams' for?

BTW, if you are looking for any reason to watch the movie, the only watchable parts are the songs (stunning music, Shankar style sets and locations and some patchy, ridiculous graphics), which you can see on TV anyway.

Personally, I loathed this film. I would rather have dry heaves all night rather than watch this poor excuse for a movie. Watch this movie only if one of your friends rents it. Don't pay for it.
