Wog Boys Forever

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 .

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.

Any fan of all things Nick G would surely expect that it's impossible to top the first Wog Boy - can't and won't ever be done as it was a unique piece for its time and resonates because of that fact.

The storyline of this film is as lightweight as the others were and that too is to be expected going in. These movies are about the humour and the moments, they aren't meant to make you think too much.

The only true criticism is that while the Wog BOYS are well cast and memorable - as they always have been - the rest of the cast is fairly forgettable at best and downright dreadful in some cases (particularly the ladies - Vinnie's wife, Raelene's daughter and the party his chick) It's a shame given Australia has so many awesome female actresses but ... then again... apart from the incredible Mary Coustas, many of the ladies associated with the "Wog" phenomena have been pretty dreadful.

Expect to be entertained, if this humour appeals, and expect that it's "more of the same" as opposed to anything "new". I laughed a great deal in a packed cinema with many others who were doing the same. Granted it was at a premiere but still... it's clearly worthwhile!

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.
