Today, I watched Boy A and I have to say, I was disappointed. The story itself was moderately interesting but the movie was soooo slow! I almost gave up half way through. Life is too short to watch bad movies, but this time I plugged away, sure that it would get better. It did not until the last 25 minutes and the movie was an 1hr. and 39 minutes.
The overall story was about a man who goes back into society after being in prison more than half of his life. The preview on Apple.com makes it seem so fast passed and exciting, but it really isn't.
The film overall was kinda choppy and awkwardly done. Plus, I'm not a fan of graphic sex scenes which this movie does have. SPARE ME! AND MY BIGGEST MOVIE PET PEEVE OF ALL, when a couple has been having lots of sex together in a film and then after they have been together a good deal of time they say some cheesy bull like, "I think I'm in love with you..."! It's like, if you didn't realize that before you had sex with them for the first time, then you definitely shouldn't have been having sex with them to begin with. Idiots.
The ending is depressing and a little lack luster. I would only suggest anyone seeing it if they are in this situation: They are at home, bored, and there is absolutely nothing else on TV but this.
I Give it: 2.8 STARS!
