The trepidation of going into a cinema auditorium and seeing a bunch of prepubescent kids scream and shout obscenities and indulge in some terrible stuff is at an all-time high with Gene Stupnitsky’s Good Boys hailed as a kindergarten Superbad, whatever that means. It is quite strange that this film has been made in the first place.
Good Boys follows three 6th grade boys ditch school and embark on an epic journey while carrying accidentally stolen drugs, being hunted by teenage girls, and trying to make their way home in time for a long-awaited party…

Jacob Tremblay earned breakout critical acclaim for his performance opposite Brie Larson in “Room,” but he’s about to grow up fast on the big screen in Universal’s R-rated comedy “Good Boys.” Taking the Apatow-inspired raunchy comedy formula and applying it to the lives of 12-year-old middle school children, “Good Boys” aims to prove once and for all that kids really do say the darnedest things.
“Good Boys” centers around a group of middle school friends: Tremblay’s Max, Keith L. Williams’ Lucas, and Brady Noon’s Thor. The group finds themselves in hot water after they destroy a drone belonging to Max’s father. To right their wrong, the three kids decide to skip school and set off on an R-rated odyssey to get a replacement drone, which includes stolen drugs, frat-house paintball, and running from both the cops and terrifying teenage girls.
