Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times "Billy Boy" is ambitious in its structure, style and editing, but the final product is disjointed and irritating. Jun 24, 2020 Full Review Dennis Harvey Variety It's exasperatingly undercooked and arted-up, failing on basic levels of character definition and narrative coherence, too often feeling like a classic indulgence for pretty-boy actors playing tough.

Jay Z I found this movie to be far. Underrated by most. The scenes s of these youth committing acts of violence is so well done and realistic that it's hard to believe that it's Blake Jenner doing it. The movie shows the gritty part of many kids homes and the reality of what it is. It also shows what happens to these young people in the situations and the results are usually very bad. So I think this movie was exceptionally good and riveting. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/03/22 Full Review Audience Member This well-intentioned and determined film about a gang of car thieves tries hard, but there just isn't anything much new here. Blake Jenner is an appealing young actor and he tries his hardest, but ultimately he seems like he is playing dress up. It goes about where expected. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member It's watchable thanks to incredible performances by the talented cast, but "Billy Boy" is eventually a good premise wasted for a bad movie. Jenner and Benoist's performances are however terrific and worth the watch. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member if i knew this was do by by a bunch of amateur immature high school film student i'd except that this really bad but i'd understand.this is not the case these types of movies are the reason why comic book movies are so popular and entertaining.these types of films are made by people who seem to miss the forrest for the trees. This was so bad the actors over acting seemed to make it worse it was like even they knew this film was bad.This film was like a combination of kids and bomb the system two films that were better than this film..this film felt like it was held together with paper clips and bubble gum its all style no substance not a shred of it .you know ya movies bad when they throw in a random pornographic sex scene as the scenes which was just as pointless and random as the scenes played in backwards i wish didnt bother seeing this film it was grass growng paint dryingly bad it should of never been made but this seems to be the current trend in hollywood specifically the indie film part.i wish rotten tomato had ratings in the negative.so i could give it a accurate rating what supergirl actress melissa benoit was thinking doing this film she didn't need it read a book instead dont watch this crap.i think i;ll stick to my super hero movies at least they're entertaining Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member While I didn’t particularly enjoy the more misogynistic elements of it, the acting was INCREDIBLE. Looking forward to American Animals next! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/19/18 Full Review Audience Member A work that, while imperfect, presents a great deal of truth about the struggles of being caught up early on with the wrong bros and how much that can destroy you; the editing and overall perspective are uniquely worthwhile. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/23/18 Full Review Read all reviews
