Very Cool!!!
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Pretty good take on the vigilante genre but not for everyone.The movie doesn't give you all the answers and it can be confusing at times, especially when the flashback scenes starts coming from nowhere.Those scenes does not in any way, shape or form look any different from any of the present time scenes, so where as most movies would add a filter or make the flashbacks black and white this movie does not.The backdrop of the main character reminded me of Peter Parker/Spiderman and it has a slight comic book feel to it (and the name alone hints of that) but it's very far from a buttkicking superhero flick so don't expect it to be that too much.In tone (and some events) it's more reminiscent of the Jodie Foster movie 'THE BRAVE ONE (2007)' but I find this movie to be slightly more entertaining than that tbh.The acting is good enough, feels like it might have been slightly rushed while filming (due to budget reasons mainly) though but yeah overall a pretty solid independent drama-thriller that's worth watching.
watch a lot films did not know much about this one thought story was well told good action great acting from lead Sean (Caleb Steinmeyer) held together well even thou you understood the plot good feeling that he got his revenge now that's justice Watch it if you can don't think you will be disappointed Good interaction between characters keeps the story interesting some scenes could be classed as disturbing but was all in context One could question the morals after killing his dad, the killer and Teresa Ames the female cop disposing of the weapon but that,s the whole point makes you question what would you do its raises more questions than answers but main thing just enjoy great entertainment.
This movie is certainly worth a watch, especially if you have Netflix being as that it is available to stream instantly to your computer or game console. Though it does not exactly possess a first-rate script, you cannot ask for much more out of an indie crime drama than what this film has to offer. Steinmeyer is solid and pretty realistic as the driven and confused protagonist while Bill Sage is effective as his conflicted and multi-dimensional father; however, the real driving force behind this film is the plot. Rather than falling into general climactic and ending sequences, Boy Wonder provides a twisted plot while remaining clear in the minds of viewers. That being said, this movie is far from perfect. Some of the supporting roles such as the other officers at the police station besides Ames are unconvincing, some of the dialogue is choppy and unappealing, and certain parts of the story seem slightly unbelievable in an otherwise credible and realistic world. All in all, this movie deserves more praise than it seems to receive. The directing and editing were great despite the uninspiring script. Had this film been produced by a Hollywood cast and crew, it certainly would have received plenty of attention for its originality and daring nature for which, if nothing else, it is worth watching.
This movie plays like the best dark graphic novel and surprises the viewer in all of the best ways. This is the story of a young boy learning to live a life born from tragedy. The acting was very good especially the lead. He brought a nervous intensity that makes you constantly guess what his next move will be. The fight scenes were positioned for intensity more than flash. This was fitting, and helped in adding to the realistic focus that the setting and story pursue. I deeply enjoyed this movie and I am glad to help bump it's score. It concerns me when movies of this caliber get overlooked while other nonsense is praised by the majority of movie goers.
