Billy Boy

I had been very interested in this film since it's announcement on Kickstart. A huge fan of Ms. Benoist, I wanted to see her in a story out of her normal realm of features. I wasn't dissapointed. This film is gritty and I found it easy to connect with the characters and their situations both good and bad. The ending was done quite well and unlike most Indie's doesn't leave you guessing as to the cause and effect of the character's actions.I found myself hoping for Billy to climb out of the situation(s) he found himself in. I watched it in a theater and later shared with friends from home. One film I will long remember. Good Job!!!!!

I left the main character it served no purpose the whole story I felt no passion to it.

The timeline just jumps all over the place with no clue if its past or present. With the bad acting it is also annoying. The kid gets beat by his friend but all his fights are with everyone else, He unstable, has no guts and makes bad decisions, I guess that makes a character if the timeline was stable at least.

I actually enjoyed the film, a lot of sex and romance that doesn't really hold with the total message of the movie and the girlfriend that the main character has doesn't really help with that (but my personal preference with movies is that it doesn't have too many romantic scenes so this is just coming from me) I really liked it but there was a lot of jumping and flashbacks which kind of reminded me of "we need to talk about Kevin" but the difference is that this movie and that movie is that this movie doesn't give me a headache. In MY opinion there was some pretty good acting in the movie and the movie tries it's best to be cinema graphic in some moments but it comes off as kind of unnatural but not a bad movie at all.

I had high hopes for the movie but I was sadly disappointed. I thought it was terrible. It was difficult to follow the story, if the scenes were current or flashbacks, questionable acting on the part of several actors including Jenner. It's just not a good film. Period.
