The action scenes in “Boy Kills World” are intense, featuring swift camera movements that capture the chaos and violence. Limbs break and bodies fly through the air as blood is spilled in these violent sequences. These scenes have a similar presentation to other fight scenes, such as the Frosty Puffs massacre, and connect all violence back to video games, like the character’s inspiration from a “Street Fighter” game for his voiceover narration. However, these action sequences have the same pace as spy movie parodies, prioritizing camera movements and impact over storytelling.
The filmmakers of “Boy Kills World” seem to be too involved in the film, which hinders the enjoyment of the action sequences. The meta-criticism within the film adds layers of complexity to the narrative but may not add depth to the overall story. The audience is not allowed to passively watch the film as they are constantly being pulled into it through plot twists in the third act that disrupt the Boy’s revenge plans without providing meaningful conclusions.
The lack of trust in the audience’s ability to connect emotionally with the film is evident in “Boy Kills World,” and underdeveloped performances from some cast members contribute to this feeling. While actors like Copley, Skarsgård, and Ruhian deliver their roles effectively, it feels like they could have been directed and scripted by Van Der Koys themselves.
Overall, while “Boy Kills World” has its moments of excitement and intensity, it falls short of delivering a compelling story or providing any meaningful emotional connections for viewers.
