Reviews:

You gotta see this movie if for no other reason to watch Jared Breeze play a pre-teen sociopath. Suppose to be the first part of a trilogy following the development of this cold blooded killer. The next movie focuses on the teenager and then the final would be his adult adventures. If they wait long enough Jared could be cast as the teenager. You can also watch him on the CBS daytime soap The Young and the Restless! Fun movie, I hope they continue with the trilogy.

> A look at a boy’s behaviour who was isolated from the society.

The entire setting reminds us the movie ‘Psycho’. More or less it could have had made a good prequel to that, like the portrayal of Norman Bates’ childhood. As an independent film from any previous narrative, it was quite good actually. Inspired by a novel that tells the story of a 9 year old boy who runs a motel with his father in a nowhere. In a lonely place where the customers are very rare, how the boy develops his behavious without social consciousness is what this movie is.

Trust me, realism means this movie, but there’s always flaws in a small budget film like this. If you always scan for logic, you can’t enjoy any movie even in small quantity. Empty your thoughts and get into it, then there’s a chance you might like it. I’m not saying it’ll become your favourite, but the depiction was so good which was quite similar to the recent Austrian movie ‘Goodnight Mommy’.

It is not a horror, but a thriller-drama. A terrifying theme, that means terror-horror, thus it called horror. Other than that there’s no supernatural or sci-fi things in it. It was a decent movie to me, I felt it was slightly underrated. The turnaround in the storytelling was very good yet predictable stuff. The filmmaker must bring a sequel for it, otherwise I’ll be very disappointed.

6/10

Unusual and Absorbing
The reviewers who disliked this movie didn’t understand it. It’s more European in its pacing and story arc, not for the simple-minded or those who do no outside reading. It is the best movie I’ve yet seen on the genesis of a sociopath and murderer, but it’a “quiet” film and assumes the viewer may know at least SOMEthing about one of the biggest topics of the last 50 years, serial murderers, and how they got that way. This boy has no guidance or love, his father is too wounded to notice or be of any real help. David Morse is always good, and Rainn Wilson’s performance was revelatory.

I liked The Boy and have been recommending it to people I know who will “get” it. It gave me the creeps.

Creepy boy in a remote motel? “Psycho” did it better.
I’m honestly struggling to capture what the moral/main theme of this film might be. Wait, perhaps I got it now! If your young child grows up in a practically isolated geographical location, where you don’t give him too much parental attention and allow for his that his best pals are roadkill carcasses, then there’s a fair chance he’ll turn into a little freak with maniacal tendencies and limited social skills. Wow, really? Thanks for the advice; I’ll try not to let that happen to my own son.

Alright, I’m exaggerating perhaps, but there honestly isn’t too much else to learn from Craig William Macneill’s “The Boy”! Admirers and wannabe intellectual cinephiles might claim that the film gives a lesson in tension-building and character development, but that’s hardly defendable. “The Boy” starts out boring, the entire middle-section is boring, and the climax is frustratingly boring! Since 1960, since Norman Bates in “Psycho” in other words, we already know that remote and ramshackle roadside motels aren’t ideal places for the mental development of vulnerable young men, so the overlong and supposedly harrowing story of single father David Morse trying to give space and liberty to his 9-year-old son Ted is redundant, uninteresting and pathetic. There is absolutely nothing happening throughout 2/3 of the film, unless you find tire-swinging or scooping up dead squirrels a fascinating sight. Then, when you hope the action might finally shift into a higher gear because the motel is suddenly filled with disposable teenagers during their senior prom after party, “The Boy” incomprehensibly becomes even more cowardly and dull. The least that we, patient and tolerant viewers, deserved to see was a psychopathic rampage and not a lousy mass-murdering! I usually have a lot of sympathy for both David Morse and Rainn Wilson, but they shouldn’t feel forced to star in over-ambitious but substantially void projects like these, just because they assume it’ll look good on their resumes. The only 45 seconds in “The Boy” that I truly enjoyed were the ones during which Jefferson Starship’s “Nothing’s Gonna Stop us” was playing on the radio.
