The Boy is uneventful



















5 second plot: A young boy lives with his father in a remote motel (that they run). The boy is saving up all his money to go to his mom in Florida. He makes (a little bit of) money by collecting roadkill for his dad. These dead animals fascinate him. He slowly moves on to bigger and bigger kills.

5 second review: These people live a terribly boring life, so not very much happens in the movie. It's quite a stretch. But the finale is grand, no question about that. It makes sitting through the boring rest worthwhile.

IMDb score: 5,5/10
