Featured reviews
Best way to describe it enjoyed it for what it was . The kids were funny and the adults quite dumb .
It's Diary of a wimpy kid + Superbad or if you are an Indian cinema fan, then it's the kiddo version of Phir Hera Pheri.
It's completely awesome. Extremely hilarious.
I laughed out loud at one scene, I won't like to mention. You'll find out by yourself. The three characters are as same as Raju, Babu bhaiya and Shyam of Phir Hera Pheri although just in 6th grade. The things they do are as same as them, and the results are no different. You would love this movie!
For many comedies, the trailers tend to give away most of the funny scenes. Thankfully this doesn't apply for Good Boys. Going into the film I didn't expect much but the humor is constant, all the child actors give amazing performances, and there are multiple story threads that came together nicely. My biggest concerns were cringing at the kid actors and a weak plot but both didn't disappoint. The three main leads were hysterical and their character development came to a satisfying conclusion at the end. There were a surprisingly decent amount interesting plot points. Most moviegoers tend to not focus on a comedy films story but here it doesn't lessen the humor or slow the movie down at all. While their are many over the top comedic scenes, it is balanced with its well thoughtout story.
I was not prepared to enjoy this movie this much. I was dying laughing. It was was more sweet than I was expecting. It definitely has some mature content, but it's actually a great moving with a sweet message. And HILARIOUS!
I haven't laughed so much watching a movie for some time now. This movie is good and I believe most of the reviews on IMBb are from the moral police of the society, I guess. Watch it and have some fun that's what it's made for.And people who think tweens don't behave like that, bad news for you all, they do behave like that.
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe three child actors were often given lines and words to say with no context or explanation for what they meant. Director Gene Stupnitsky and producer Lee Eisenberg refused to answer any questions the children had and told them to ask their mothers instead.
- GoofsWhen Max pulls out and repeatedly fires the paintball gun, it appears to not have an air supply, so it could not work. In fact, it has a (small) Powerlet or 90 g single-use cartridge attached by an adapter to the tank port. It also has a small hopper, so it could work with that gas and paintball supply just barely having inflicted the mayhem shown, but probably not much more before it ran out of one or the other set of supplies.
- Crazy creditsSPOILER: For the Point Grey logo, It Shows drawings on a desk. One of the drawings says "Thor = Sippy Cup" Which is a big thing in the movie.
