Billy Boy

I don't recommend this film. It really gets lost in all the crazy camera stunts. Actors were generally good, but a waste of Melissa Benoist's talent. I now understand why she made it as these were people from her prior series Glee. She needs to find better films. She's very good actress, she is very talented. Enjoy Supergirl instead.

This movie is so bad forced me to write a review i'm not going to add spoilers as its not even worth leaking any out .The movie to me has a basketball dairy,kids,Bomb the system kind of vibe to it .All those movies were way better than this film ,this has a film student quality to it which is to say it doesn't have any quality at all.For such wooden predictable cliche writing the actors seem to over act .This is a film for pretentious tool bag hipsters/unwiped artsy fartsy asses as well as navel gazers .Very predictable story you know how its going to end even before the end .Not worth seeing at all then to top it off you have the explicit sex scene thrown in out of no where which just as out of place as the actors.Any time i see some graphic sex in a movie its a huge red flag that the movie is horrible and the sex is thrown into shock and get people talking about about a film that should of never seen the light of day what the girl from super girl was thinking by being in this is beyond me .Imdb really needs to install a negative rating system because giving this a 1 in the positive is too much i would rate this a - Negative 5 if i could .Nothing to see here folks unless you like seeing nude melissa bolona at the expense of being bored to tears by this mental masturbation fodder don't bother

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 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!!!!!

This is a story about horrible people doing horrible things to people around them that deserve better. While the performances are good, the whole storyline is just miserable and jumps back and forth in the timberline far too much. There are times that I like a gritty realistic story, but this movie is like spending the night at a juvenile detention center. Melissa Benoist was the only slight ray of sunshine in this entire disjointed, dark, dismal story. Pretty much everyone other character is a horrible person. Even the main character Billy. Just when you think he's going to turn things around and show some integrity, he turns out to be just as awful and disappointing as you suspected. If you're looking for a "feel-good" movie, this is the complete opposite of that.
