Ugh what an amazing movie!! The anxiety and adrenaline I feel when watching sports movies is unmatched. Very surprised it was directed by George Clooney but it was great. 9/10

SO GOOD I WAS SO INSPIRED AWESOME
Bryan Beckel is "meh" onThe Boys in the BoatThe overall story is great and enjoyable, but all the other side stories are poorly contrived and executed. They build up to nothing and go nowhere. Also the main character has almost no actual lines? Just constant headhshakes and smoulders?? Joel Edgerton is amazing.
lila likedThe Boys in the BoatI LOVE YOU CALLUM TURNER
- Caden Crum likedThe Boys in the Boat
Far exceeded expectations and shows how teamwork and sacrifice can overcome talent and pedigree. Critic scores are low bc they hate anything that boosts American morale and shows success is found through teamwork, sacrifice, humility. Great acting. Ending slightly rushed. 8.1/10
Nick Dubberly likedThe Boys in the BoatA heartwarming underdog story of the JV rowing crew that ended up winning the Olympic gold medal in Berlin! Joel Edgerton leads a cast of mostly unknowns (to me at least), in a film that’s like Miracle, but on the water. If you like sports movies this is a must watch for you!
Zoe likedThe Boys in the BoatIt was fine? It had all the right components but it was missing something. The characters felt weirdly one note, in the train when one of them was apologizing I didn’t know or care who that other guy was. Why wasn’t Hume the main character? He did more than the mc

Went with my 88 year old uncle and his friend. All of us stayed awake lol and really enjoyed the movie. True story is amazing. Filming was so good with the rowing scenes. Intense in a good way where we were cheering them on!
RJRebecca JennettGreat movie. Would have been better without all the swear words, but it was a great story. I agree it felt a bit rushed, but overall, it was a fantastic story.
PEPeggy EvansWe really enjoyed the movie!!

It’s not that “The Boys in the Boat” doesn’t have an inspirational impact; it’s that we’re so aware of being pushed in that direction.

The film is an unshowy but slick underdog sports picture, fluidly told and elegantly mounted. It’s about rowing, for chrissakes; it doesn’t have a post-modern or irreverent bone in its body, and for that, we can be at least a little grateful.

Steeped in old-fashioned virtues and a feel-good underdog story, The Boys in the Boat isn’t bad, but it doesn’t ever navigate its way out of the shallow end of the sports-movie pool either.
