Critics Consensus

Good Boys is undermined by an eagerness to repeatedly indulge in profane humor, but its appealing cast and ultimately thoughtful message often shine through.

Overall the movie delivers on its premise.

4/5

The jokes come thick and fast and they're on point, a mix of sharp, squirm and brash vibes, but it's perfectly balanced.

2.5/5

Some of this is fun and inventive, some of it repetitive and feeble, especially the heavy emphasis on the naivety of the protagonists and the hopelessness of their attempts at cool.

3/5

It maintains a sense of goofiness to contradict and counterbalance the explicit material, making what could’ve been uncomfortably crass adorkable in a pleasantly amusing way.

4/5

The super sweet yet seriously sour antics of the Good Boys makes for one seriously gut-busting good time.

I liked this comedy a lot, but this isn't a family friendly film. A must-watch if you enjoy comedies with younger actors.

Cute show...the ending was kind of weak...and, even though in sync, for early 6th graders, the language was pretty atrocious! I wasnt offended, but, if I had younger kids, probably wouldnt take them...
