boytown and write by mick and richard molloy tell the tale of a hugely popular fictional australian 80 boy band and get back together in 2006. it star some of the cream of the crop of australian comic talent include wayne hope and glenn robbins and bob franklin and tony martin and mick molloy himself . when i hear about this movie some time ago and i be the first to admit and this idea have be do before many time and in sketch show and and cleverly in a cruel sea video clip . so and how on earth be molloy and his team go to sustain an 88 minute film base on one lousy idea . well the answer be and that they do not . boytown be a poorly direct and even more atrociously write comedy without any funny dialogue or a hint of intelligence and it make the average other molloy outing and crackerjack look incredible in comparison . the bad sin this movie commit be somehow waste the talent of the cast and not give genius like wayne hope and glenn robbins and bob franklin a single funny line . sure and some of the song be funny and but you get the impression the script be sometimes just a vehicle to showcase these song . the movie be swamp in comic conservatism and there be not a single fresh idea or unpredictably clever scene while with the exception of an admittedly hilarious cameo from a brazilian seductress . but any good work in the movie be undone by the end which be frankly terrible and lead me to believe mick hire a primary school kid to solve his case of writer block . all in all and it be a bad idea and execute badly and with a fantastic cast that be badly waste . however and it still a league above david spade and rob schnieder and adam sandler and the gang and for that reason i will give it negative . for a funny australian movie go no further than bad egg or the castle and or just buy the 3 season of the micallef p ( r ) ogram ( me ) .
