Boy Kills World

"The joke gets old approximately five minutes in, and there are still 106 more minutes left to go."

"For this boy to kill the world, the movie shouldn’t need to kill our patience first."

"Will likely appeal to a certain kind of viewer (read: stoners and/or 14-year-old boys) and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that."

"The game physicality of it won me over."

"Gruesome but falls short of genuine wit."

"Overstays its welcome."

"Hits you over the head with gimmicks."

"Poorly executed CGI splatter and heavy-handed snark."

"Much of the movie plays out as everybody would expect."

"The manic B-movie energy combined with frenetic, gory action infuses a familiar conceit with a sense of video game fun."

"A joyously conceived series of action sequences designed to top the one that came before."

"An obnoxious action-comedy."

"(A) bloodthirsty but tedious directorial debut."
