The Boys in the Boat Reviews

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

solid flow, callum turner is my og baby daddy, the boys in the boat were hot - 7/10

Fantastic movie. The acting really makes you feel for the characters and cheer them on. Totally made me emotional. A great watch for the whole family.

SO GOOD I WAS SO INSPIRED AWESOME

I LOVE YOU CALLUM TURNER

The 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.

Honestly 7/10. If someone have told be me that I wouldn’t fall asleep in a 2 hours movie about rowing, I wouldn’t have believe him.

What a great story. Perfect movie to watch ahead of summer Olympic.

It 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

A 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!

8/10 shit had me on the edge of my seat every time they was in the mf boat. And them boys fine ash too 🥵 brava 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 go America 🇺🇸 🤘🏽🦅

Fantastic movie based on a real story.

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

It was great to see it come full circle and even if you knew what was going to happen, it was still very interesting and heart racing.

AMAZING! incredible performances by everyone & especially my man callum turner <3 this movie had you cheering in the theater

A quintessential underdog story about the crew team that made it to the Olympics in the 30s. Best moments are the races, loved the drone shots, but couldn’t really maintain the suspense in the drama in between.

Charming
especially fun if you don't know the story
nicely paced
I don't like sports movies.. and I really enjoyed it! it didn't bore me and I genuinely was getting amped and 'on the edge of my seat' each race
saw at AMC Screen Unseen

Mid

most american movie ever

this is a good one! although, it lacked a certain…heart. inspiring, but could have been more impactful. love joel edgerton so much.
