The Boys (1998)
10/10
Doesn't get much grittier than this gem
29 December 2023
As real as it gets here with some outstanding performances on display. Probably the most realistic portrayal of a cold blooded human you wish you never knew.

David Wenham, who plays the role of Brett, has pulls off a masterpiece performance as a heartless criminal out on parole who returns home to his mother and two brothers. He doesn't even last 24 hours out of jail before destroying his family's lives by dragging himself and both his brothers into another crime that will land them all behind bars.

I grew up in Melbourne with a few blokes like this and to say honestly most of them are more at home locked up than walking around free. It's sad but true!!

This is as real as it gets!! 9.5 out of 10 for me.
