My Boy

About This Movie

So, 'My Boy' is an interesting little drama that unfolds mainly around one chaotic night. You’ve got Louis, who’s pretty much just there to support his brother through a bachelor party he didn't really want to attend. Things spiral out of control in a way that feels very relatable and raw. The pacing is a bit uneven; it kind of lingers in moments that build tension, then suddenly shifts gears as the night gets wilder. The performances are quite genuine, especially how Louis grapples with his own limits amidst the chaos around him. It leans heavily on character-driven storytelling, and you really feel the atmosphere of a night gone awry. Plus, the practical effects are understated but effective, adding a layer of realism you don’t always see in dramas these days.
