Boys State Reviews

Lord of the flies, but about politics. Entertaining for sure, shout out @scottfausel for the rec ​​​​​​​​​

Fascinating doc following high school boys in Texas at the yearly mock government conference. Quite a reflection of our larger political moment.

Meh

Interworking’s of boy state. Fascinating. All my family went to girls and boys state but I don’t because leadership camp at USU.

An interesting watch 5 years after it came out but also wow does it explain so much. Sure they chose Texas but the views some of these young men have truly explain what may happen in the future.

I was hoping it to be better. But a fantastic way to see how politics, power, and control work

Really interesting

a bit too much b-roll and inspirational bs for me (this is way longer than it should be i would’ve liked an extra story line or more interviews) but arguably even better than the girls because they discuss political issues more. wish they had more characters, still loved it!

the most stressful viewing experience of my life

The real real on our fucked up political system and how it’s engrained on kids at an early age.

Good not great. A little bit boring. Probably worth watching though. ​​​​​​​​​
