Here Are the Young Men

Here Are the Young Men is a movie that starts in a janky way and stays that way for the next 90 minutes. The performance of the actors seems to get blend with the act but doesn't have that much of an impact. Right from the first arc till the last the elements of the movie are quite janky and most of the time it makes you wanna skip scenes. The direction and screenplay both needed more polish. In the end, it's a movie that's not for recommending someone cause you will forget it after watching it once. When it comes to time pass this movie definitely falls into that club.

Don't pay attention toom much on actors that could've act better what matters is the story that keeps happening to the young community and all these suicides needs attention. Editing and sound mixing are great because makes you feel their experiences when they are drunk , angry or depressed so enjoy it.

Taylor-Joy, Miami born doing a good Irish accent, plays older-for-younger and is the "smartest person in the room" in this otherwise familiar tale of young male self-destruction. You don't need a movie for that. Just walk to the local grocery store.

Cautionary tale of be careful who your friends are.

Saw this because I'm running through everything with Anya in it. Side Note: Her as a redhead, works.

The thing that bothers me the most about this movie, is the lack of originality. Everything is so cliched, and lazily written. They tried too hard to be edgy and standout, and you could tell.

It's a shame, because all the actors did a pretty good job. They each played their individual roles nicely. Matthew could've been more assertive though. He was such a pushover. But maybe that was the point, especially given how the film ended. Makes sense, I guess.

They are seriously affected by what they witnessed to begin the Summer and paid the price for it in one way or another. Each actor has their own well defined struggle that they try to cope with and manage. Some actors didn't fare out too well.

It's a short enjoyable watch. Not horrible or anything, just lacks originality. Worth watching, especially if you can't get enough of Anya lol

This gets a LennyReviewz Score of: 5/10.

Engaging story about the dark decent of a group of boys. Some very solid acting from the main cast, especially from Dean-Charles Chapman. You really did believe his character was going through the crisis in the movie. Unlike many other reviewers, I actually enjoyed the absurd meta dream sequences. They were an interesting way to present the themes and troubles of the young men, adding a black humor element. The film was shot was like a music video, with a lot of beautiful effects and vibrant colors contrasting the dark content of violence, vandalism, drug binging, suicide, rape and even murder. Unfortunately, it lacks some more substance into why one of the main characters does what they do. Needed more background and exploration on downward spiral of mental illness and motivation. The film's message gets even more lost towards the last act. Although the story ending was somewhat satisfying, it still left a bad taste. But you definitely can't hate on Chapman for trying to sell the story, fantastic acting. Still worth watching.
