Boy Erased Reviews
Depressing and sad Had to stop watching halfway through
Excellent movie, great acting
The ideas behind it are good but the story line is so incredibly boring its unreal. Literally nothing happens its just the same thing over and over again. No drama or love interests or anything. I gave up with half an hour left because i was just so bored. I dont recommend.
Hated What The Movie Was And Is About And What They Did To The Guy In Reality. More Reason To Hate Homophobics And Churches. Emotional Movie.
While there is inherent drama to be found from the actual subject matter, this movie itself is sadly pat, predictable and lacking in any subtext or true emotion. What we have here is a movie that feels like an ABC 온라인카지노추천 movie from the late 1980s. None of the characters are particularly well written, and they actually border on stereotype. As a result, not even actors of this caliber are able to breathe much life into them. Crowe suffers the most, and it's hard to determine whether this seemingly lackluster performance is a result of the actor or the screenwriter, or perhaps a combination of both. This reminded me of another 2018 film, BEAUTIFUL BOY, which was also a movie with vital subject matter that seemed to collapse under the weight of its good intentions. Its heart is in the right place, but the execution is average at best.
Good movie about the tragedy of so-called "conversion therapy." Well written and acted. Hopefully, very few of these horrible "therapies" remain.
This story is an important one even if its effect comes off a little muted compared to its subject matter. Don't get me wrong, this is a good movie with great messaging - but given what it is dealing with, the emotional payoff doesn't QUITE match. The true story is wonderfully told and the acting is brilliant (particularly from Kidman), but I just wish the weightiness felt more consistent throughout the film.
Ban conversion therapy! #StopDithering
Thanks for this movie really nice
Disturbing, but a VERY IMPORTANT story to tell. I could write an essay about why, but I do not feel it is needed. "Conversion Therapy" is dangerous, which is why NO Psychiatric Institution supports it.
Loved this film, and the cast was terrific. Never heavy-handed, a thoughtful portrayal of the complexity of belief and sexuality.
Boy Erased is a tactful yet sad film that explores the uncomfortable topic of conversion therapy, religion and being a homosexual man in a conservative household.
Unrelenting downer. Poor cinematography, it jumped around too much. I could not take it anymore after 15 minutes
I re-watch this movie and cry every month... its so good. So real, so emotional, and great performance from the entire cast, especially Nicole Kidman.
Um dos filmes mais bizarros (no aspecto absurdo e inominável) que já assisti, retratando a homofobia, e o pior, baseado em fatos reais o que a torna mais triste revoltante ainda… Lindo e necessário, filme, Russell Crowe está tão diferente, Lucas Hedges esta perfeita, Nicole dispensa comentários...
What really impress here is the honesty of the screenplay (showing all the cruelty and feelings of every LGBT person involved without eufemism) and the commitemment of the cast with the story (every single actor, especially the already incredible Lucas Hedges, give their all in the character), Joel Edgerton is a promising director for sure and this picture should be a must-see for everyone for understanding better the gay community...
Es una muy buena película; la trama es excelente y las actuaciones son sublimes; Lucas Hedges, Nicole Kidman y Russell Crowe son grandiosos.
Although frustrating at times due to its back-and-forth plotline, "Boy Erased" is a melody of pathos and heartbreak, featuring an exceptionally convincing pair: Russell Crowe and Nicole Kidman.
It could be a little more daring in its message and the truly awful practice of conversion. Nonetheless, director Edgerton deserves respect for telling his story in this solid piece of filmmaking.
