Get Ready to Be Boyzvoiced

This is an unexpected gem. I watched this movie late one night on SBS (a foreign language free to air channel in Australia) and was drawn into it almost immediately. Even reading this movie with subtitles doesn't seem to detract from the hilarity. Ove is hilarious! This is much funnier than Spinal Tap, and essentially makes that movie obsolete.This movie contains a number of video clips of varying degrees of humor, some of them side-splitting. In a world of boy-bands and girl-bands that are essentially self-parodies, it is amazing that this movie still manages to be so funny. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who appreciates witty satirical humor such as the office, or the simpsons. Also, any fan of Spinal Tap should check this out.

Anyone who despises boybands will love this movie! It's a mockumentary following a boyband called Boyzvoice (consisting of MPete, Hot Tub and Roar) on tour. All sorts of things that come along with being in a boyband happen, including a shocking "secret."

One of the most memorable characters is their biggest fan, Ove, who takes a huge risk writing a report on his favourite group for school and almost gets trampled to death at a shopping mall performance. His naivete is just too funny, as are Boyzvoice's music videos. They're all in English, save for the "Latin" dance song that most boybands have. Hilarious lyrics, some on the naughty side, but never repulsive.

A very funny movie. Ranks just below Spinal Tap. A lot of comedies have tried to make mockumentaries. However, none have made me laugh, with the exception of the two abovementioned movies. There are however some missed opportunities in this movies. It could have been even better. The scary thing, is that this movie is so close to the truth about these boy-bands.

8 out of 10

Back in 2000 a group of friends and I stumbled upon a cassette of the video "We are the Playmomen." For several weeks we debated whether it was for real or a put-on, but either way we laughed our asses off. I thought I would never get a chance to see the movie, but periodic searches over the years paid off.

Jeez, it's funny.

The music is catchy and fun. Espen Eckbo is so convincing in his multiple roles I actually went for a good part of the film without realizing the number of characters he was playing. Of note is his role as M'Pete. Eckbo convincingly portrays someone happy to be living his dream, but who suspects the bubble could burst at any moment. When it does, he displays a surprising depth of emotion. I wouldn't mind seeing him in a non-comedic role.

For those of you who get a chance to see this film, lucky you.

Given that im totally annoyed by boybands and a big fan of Spinal Tap I really wanted to love this movie when our local station advertised it as "Spinal Tap meets Back street boys". My only dissapoinment is that I hadn't discovered this earlier. It is hysterically funny in every way, and like ST needs a rewatch to appreciate the finner moments. Funniest bits iclude the first song (the "cousin" one), the diehard teenage boy fan (every scene he's in), and M'Pete talking about his Bond theme dream.

Finally boy bands get the credibility they deserve..hehe.
