Wog Boys Forever

Look...my grandsons....16 and 14 years old loved it!! But unfortunately for my self and all the other adults in the group..we were so disappointed!!! Where to start....it was a mish mash...terrible .Sooshi Mango..who we absolutely idolise could not save this movie. The LEMON TREE joke was absolutely ridiculous!! Terrible cameo from Derryn Hinch!! The whole movie was a major disaster!! Sorry!!!! We all went to watch this film with such high expectations. So many story lines going nowhere. What happened to the party bus people ...to his work colleagues.....too many to mention... Like I said....maybe the younger generation will love it....but it was a miss for us.

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.

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.

The acting in this movie was so cringey. Honestly, you couldn't pick better actors? Monotone young bloke with no passion in his role (did this young bloke know someone in there or related? Not sure how he got that role. It is some of the worst acting I have ever seen), then some blokes who couldn't get into character trying to sound ocker. Overexagerrated it way too much in terms of the Australian acting and throwing wog around. Stupid times to bring in certain convos. E.g. The party bus.

Scriptwriter needs a new day job. The storyline was horrible. This missed the mark badly.

Sooshi Mango were the most entertaining of the lot, hence my rating of 2. Without them it's a 1.

Not only did this movie make me laugh out loud in the cinemas, it made me want to rewatch it again. Nick Gianopolous has clearly written this movie from the heart and what a ride it was.

Sooshi Mango absolutely stole the film in my view and their moments on screen dwarfed the various call back and cameos from the original film.

It was great to see the return of Vince Collosimo and the debut of young Australian actors who graced the screen with their fresh and fun takes on the characters of the Wogboys world which made for excellent viewing.

I would advise that this film however, is not for those without any ethnic background or little to no understanding of Australia multicultural struggles in todays society. Unfortunately a lot of the comedy will be lost on you as per the original films.

However, whoever decides to watch this film will enjoy the well put together cast of Wogboys forever. That have given their all and gave a fun, enjoyable watch. Bravo 👏🏽
