A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Another mockumentary about a fictional music group. This one is set in Norway, which gives it some novelty--I liked seeing the scenes of them traveling and getting a feel for the different settings. And this was a mostly funny movie with some catchy original tunes.The problem for me is that is basically follows the same template as so many other fake documentaries, particularly music related ones. If you've seen Spinal Tap and A Mighty Wind, you get the idea. If, like me, you also happen to have been lucky enough to see Gangsta Rap: The Glockumentary, you might just be as underwhelmed as I was. Boyzvoiced was just a little tame in comparison.I gave a six because it did have a lot going for it. The subplot with the male fan who ends up on stage (saving the band's career in the process) worked well. However, a lot of the build-up (trouble in the studio, bad press, lack of talent) felt routine. The highlight might have been the charity event gone wrong when the band ended up assaulting some Shriners during a mall show.Overall, worth a watch, but I don't expect to give it any repeat viewings.
As a fan of foreign cinema, I saw this film screened on the multicultural station SBS. I would have to say that this is a humorous view into the life of a Scandinavian boy band. A documentary crew follows the members of the band throughout their career. From in-store appearances to performing in a live awards show in front of a nationwide audience, nothing seems to go exactly as planned. The characters are portrayed brilliantly and are very much true to life. The film also depicts the popularity of the pop music industry in Scandinavia at the time of filming where pop bands such as Aqua were prevalent. If you ever come across this film it is definitely worth watching. Norwegians aren't well known for their comedy but this is a top effort from the Norwegians which will have you in stitches.
the funniest movie i have ever seen. Without a doubt. I love the music videos, the diehard fan, M-Pete discussing his priorities ('First Mum, then the career, then dad, then my girlfriend... if she's really hot, she might come before dad') it is still funny everytime i watch it
Great satire of the boy-band rage. Although in Norwegian, with English subtitles it is also very funny. The corny songs and vidoes in themselves make the movie worth seeing. Look out for more from Eckbo & Co. in the future!
