Wog Boys Forever

This movie suffers the same fate as so much of Australian tv and cinema. Playing to the lowest common denominator. Reminds me of those lame jokes from the tv show Fat Pizza and Housos. Maybe passable in the 2000s but we expect more now. Why Australia keeps pumping out this low brow crap for I'll never know. A handful of jokes i smiled at only because I can relate to some of the Italian jokes but it's really not very good. As someone else mentioned there's no followup with half the characters they introduce. The party bus, the other cab drivers. These story arcs go nowhere so why include them? It's just lazy writing and you'd think as it's the 3rd movie in 22 years they'd actually put some effort into the writing. Nick and Vince should be ashamed of making this movie.

Nick should have left it at the original Wogboy movie and should have never ever produced sequels. Terrible acting and I felt sorry for Sooshi Mango who deserved to premier in a much better movie. You can easily tell that this movie was made out of desperation to keep Nick G in the limelight and that is if he had any light left in the first place. The story lines were a mess. The characters portrayed were mediocre. The story was very predictable. It was just cheap slapstick humour. As an Aussie with a similar background , I certainly would like to have seen quality humour and a much better constructed storyline .

It definitely had some strong moments and good themes, but it's like this was the first draft of the script or something, and the good moments were not utilised to their maximum potential. The director used way too many shots that were half way between a close up and a medium close up. As Rowan Atkinson said, for comedy, you need to show things from a wide angle so that we can see all the actions from all the characters.

Sooshi Mango were clearly thrilled to be able to use some of their best gags in a feature film, and they were mostly very good. Nick Giannopoulos's acting was actually superb, and works so well with this style of humour.

Overall, strong moments and a few weak ones, but it did not reach its potential due to a lack of polishing and not great directing.

There were some good jokes and some of the old nostalgia was great. Some subtle references to the original (my favourite was Franky calling Steve's jacket "mad", a classic line from the original!)

But all this is overshadowed by the very poor storyline. It was a little sad and depressing for a comedy and I felt like Steve really never came above it all. The Raylene's kids thing is a bit ridiculous and the left wing political commentary is loathsome and cliche.

The movie had so much potential to showcase some true and proud Aussie culture that us wogs have embraced, but instead it decided to just make proud Australians look like a'holes. This movie really missed the mark and was a huge disappointment.

Vince Colosimo and Sooshi Mango somewhat saved this movie. Without them, it would be a 1. They lift it up to a 4. They were great. Everything else - extremely poor.

First off I have to say I am a huge supporter of home grown Australian cinema, its critical to a country's culture to maintain a health arts scene which includes making movies with its own voice. But this movie, despite best intentions, shows really only the worst. Its based on a racial stereotype which is very out of date. Fine - you went into the movie knowing that, so its acceptable, even though the entire cultural and racial stereotype is over-milked through the entire movie. What isn't acceptable is just how poor the script writing, direction and cinematography is. Its like this was written and shot by a 13 year old, full of staid gags which fall flat and are poorly timed - the whole 'Alexa' scene was just embarrassing. The plot was awful and made little sense, the acting was beyond wooden, the script was written by a gorilla. Come on Australia, surely you can do better than this.
