Adventure Boyz

Local Speedway racer dad Mike Harris and his wife, Lucy, are drifting apart. She reluctantly leaves her two sons, Sam and Jake in his charge while she returns to the US on business. Action-hungry Harris loves the adrenaline of getting out there and feeling alive by physically experiencing his sport, while his sons have started to discover new ways of encountering sports.

Disappointed by the digital age and the introduction of sports participation via an app without leaving the house, Harris encourages them to continue to experience the outdoors.

The boys venture out through the beautiful English countryside on their bikes. On their travels they uncover clues to a secret stash of stolen jewels, and bring it home.

Hot on their heels are the criminal mastermind gang behind the half-a-million-pound diamond discovery. Thinking they have the perfect plan, they call the Police, the diamonds are found and the boys' father is arrested. However, the rest of the plan does not go as expected, as the children run away and, in an attempt to do the right thing, encounter further problems, and escapades - but who outsmarts who?

Shot in and around my local town of Hailsham, with the backdrop of the South Downs, it wasn't hard to find fantastic locations for the film, including the prestigious Arlington Speedway.

An adventurous and highly enjoyable family-friendly film with twists and turns, comedic moments and a really important set of moral messages.

Loved watching this film, it made me smile, laugh out loud and not once did I get bored. The characters were all so great and really made you engage with the film. I would highly recommend this film and will be watching it again and again.

It's a really lovely story about a loving father concerned that his kids no longer want to go and play outside and experience "real life" adventure all due to them getting addicted to screens instead. Reminiscent of films like The Goonies and Home Alone it's a film that both children and adults will adore.

A must see!

At a time where phones, tablets, Xbox and social media are the first port of call for most children, this film harks back to the days of kids playing in the summer holidays, running around outside with the freedom to explorer and discover with friends.

Like The Goonies, or the Famous Five books, with an element of Home Alone thrown in, it is an old school adventure film about two young boys and their speedway racing father, and comes complete with an evil crime boss, a two incompetent henchmen and a tale of lost treasure to discover. There is plenty of action with chases and speedway racing, and comedy with slapstick moments that will make you wince and laugh.

Beautifully shot in the countryside of South East England near the directors own home, this is a thoroughly enjoyable family film with an underlying message to the current generation to get outside and have some fun and adventure.

I watched this with my two boys at the weekend who loved every minute of it and and the next day I found myself being dragged out to the park with them on our bikes.

Thoroughly recommend you go and see this as soon as you can, and inspire another generation.

Wow! What a refreshing and wonderful movie. Story is everything and here is a filmmaker who keeps it simple and whom delivers a heartwarming rollercoaster of fun. It's beautifully shot, capturing England in the sunshine which is always a delight to see. There are some great performances here all leading us to a thoroughly enjoyable conclusion. Bravo to everybody who was involved.
