Bill Skarsgård leads a rote revenge thriller that isn't nearly as clever as it thinks it is
Though Boy Kills World tries its best to conjure a snarky, gory action flick à la Deadpool , a sorely lacking script, bloated runtime, and aimless direction render this revenge flick aggressively tepid. Starring Bill Skarsgård, Jessica Rothe , and Michelle Dockery , Boy Kills World follows the titular Boy , an orphaned young man living on the fringes of a “totalitarian hellhole” of a society that operates under the boot of the filthy rich Van Der Koy family.
In addition to having him speak directly to the audience via Benjamin’s narration, the film’s other reality-bending quirk is the presence of Boy’s little sister Mina, who follows Boy around as a constant reminder of his tragic past.

In this feature, Skarsgård plays"Boy," a man set out on revenge after his family is killed by nefarious forces. Hilda Van Der Koy's post-apocalypse holds many challenges for our world-weary protagonist. In a weird quirk for this particular genre, Boy is almost completely silent while all the bodies continue to fall all around him. He sets out to have his revenge and the only way to get it is with his fists. The IT actor's character is trained by Yaya Ruhian as the apocalyptic setting has more than he bargained for. Roadside Attractions is very excited for people to see this movie. Back when Lionsgate acquired the picture at TIFF, they issued a statement
