    Boy who? Oh!

    I must admit: I'm a huge fan of thrillers…the only problem is I'm often disappointed by the weak story plots and cliché endings that plague most of the new suspense films that are being dished out by Hollywood fools lately. That being said, I didn't expect much when I went to see Boy Wonder at the Thrill Spy Fest in D.C. Michael Morrissey's Boy Wonder sets itself apart from the senseless crap out there today. It keeps you guessing the whole way through, and just when you think you figured out the ending, you're proved wrong. The film is a classic man vs. man revenge plot, with enough twists and turns to keep you interested. For an indie film, I was pretty surprised by the writing and acting. This director is definitely going places. The lead guy who played Caleb was awesome too. He definitely has that troubled method actor type quality to him. Expect to see him around in the future. Not sure whether or not this is going straight to DVD or if it will stay in the festival circuit for awhile, but if you have the opportunity to see Boy Wonder, you won't be disappointed.

    6.9/10. Recommended

    This is a good drama/crime/thriller movie, better than i expected. It's dark and bleak but not unbearably dark, neither overdramatic. Still enjoyable and entertaining. Many satisfying scenes throughout the movie, even though its thematic core is sad. I didn't recognize any actor, they are all unknown to me, however they were good, each one of them. Leading actor, Caleb Steinmeyer, was almost impressive. This is his last movie, seems strange to me that he quit acting.

    Ending was very good, i didn't see it coming. I won't say much in order for not spoiling it.

    It's a low budget movie, so, don't expect a masterpiece, and you will enjoy it, too.

    Excuse me? 6.4/10?!

    I have no idea why this film has a 6.4 out of 10. It is truly great. If you enjoy revenge films then this is perfect for you.

    The acting is very good and the editing was fantastic and clearly done very carefully.

    I don't like telling people too much when i recommend a film as this dents the experience but rest assured you won't know what direction this film will take you. That is the great thing about it.

    Also i kind of felt like I was reading a superhero comic. And it does reference batman at times. So for fans, look out for that!

    Just sit back and let it pull you in. Go see it!

    This movie deserves attention. Very impressed.

    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.

    Must see!

    It's no surprise Boy Wonder won Best Editing at the Rhode Island Film Festival. Being a resident of Providence, I always try to make my way to the fest each year. And while every film at the fest is most definitely a hit or miss, I can honestly say I haven't seen such a stellar film as this fest in a long time as good as Boy Wonder. Not only was the editing intensely good (hence the award), but the cinematography was gorgeous and the story was strong. Expect to see Caleb Steinmeyer in the near future. There's no way some up-and-coming director won't want to hire this kid. What a great performance. His intensity and method acting was incredible in this film. And and all, if you have a chance to see this film, I highly suggest you do. You won't be disappointed.
