     • Exceptional and well-acted, The Boy is intense, terrifying and surprisingly sad. It might not be the scary movie you'd want it to be but it is all worth the wait for the twist.

But such is the honesty, realism, and humor on display that it's little surprise he's now one of Hollywood's most sought-after filmmakers.
