Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Claudio Carvalho The restorer and single mother Grace (Deirdre O'Kane) is working in an ancient church and she finds a hidden crypt with a voodoo book of resurrection. However, Father Cornelius (Lalor Roddy) asks her to go home and forget her findings.Her son Nathan (David Leon) is a sensitive and shy teenager bullied by Samson (Mark Huberman) at school. He has a crush on his friend Jessica (Samantha Mumba), but he does not declare to her. His best friends Diggs (Tadhg Murphy) and Henry (Laurence Kinlan) schedule a date of Jessica with Nathan. However her father grounds her in her bedroom and when Nathan calls Jessica, her father tells that she has dated a good looking guy in a car.Jessica flees through the window, but Nathan and Jessica fail to meet each other. Jessica takes a ride in Kenneth's car and Nathan believes that she is dating the schoolmate. He goes home, drinks whiskey and puts a rope around his neck. When Grace comes home, she opens Nathan's bedroom door and accidentally she hangs her son. Grace resurrects Nathan, but soon she finds that something did not work out when her son bites Samson and his schoolmates start eating each other. "Boy Eats Girl" is an unoriginal Irish comedy about a group of zombies that are not living dead, but teenagers infected by the bites of their schoolmates that follows the American style with Irish accent. This B- movie entertains, but is not funny enough for a comedy or frightening for a horror movie. The lead actress is miscast for the role of Jessica and the slut Cheryl is never naked along the story; therefore one of the basic rules of a B-movie is broken. But there are also funny dialogs that make laugh. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): Not Available

ElijahCSkuggs Story about a teenager who accidentally kicks the bucket, but only to return as a zombie like teenager. Thirst for blood and need for human flesh included. Throw in some lovey dovey side-plot crap and you basically have Boy Eats Girl.The flick most importantly, isn't that bad. It's actually kinda entertaining. With a decent amount of grue and silly Irish teen humor, it ain't that bad.But the flick just wasn't that memorable. With alright gore, alright acting, and alright ideas being presented, it just doesn't grab you like a comedy or a horror should. It wasn't truly funny or scary. It's basically a rehash of everything you've probably seen before in the Zom/Com/Rom sub-genre.I can tell you one thing, there was a female character in this flick, that desperately needed to get naked. But she did not. She played the bitchy slut, and showed off her cleav throughout. I guess the makers thought they were making a flick that didn't need it. Wrong. Note to all horror film-makers everywhere: If you're gonna have a slutty chick in a movie (with big tits in this case), have her show some damn skin. Only good can come from this.Boys Eats Girl is a pretty damn average RomZomCom flick that was entertaining based solely on the amount of blood it spilled. But where it matters, like in the laugh and chills department, it just didn't get it done. Though it is recommendable, it has a "teen movie" charm, uses a slightly different approach to zombie flicks and, yep, the blood.

katdakay When I first came across "Boy Eats Girl", it was a previewed movie for sale at a video store. I initially thought it was a porno because of the title, but picked it up and read the back anyway...it was enough to pique my interest and get me to buy the thing.After seeing the previews that preceded the actual movie, my expectations were pretty low, but I decided to give it a shot anyway. I'm glad I did, because the movie itself was hilarious, in that irreverent, youthful European style of humor. That said, if you're looking for a hardcore, creepy, serious zombie movie, then this one is definitely not for you. "Boy Eats Girl" is a funny, brilliant take on both adolescence and the horror genre; the characters take center stage and the whole zombie plot is more of a side note.But...I loved it. I've seen some pretty shoddy horror movies, but this film has excellent cinematography, decent special effects, and, most importantly, good acting and interesting characters. A good movie to watch with friends... you'll laugh until you cry.

Paul Andrews Boy Eats Girl is set in an Irish town where a woman named Grace (Deirdre O'Kane) renovating a Church finds a hidden crypt & some ancient Pagan books on Voodoo rituals including the resurrection of the dead, initially the find doesn't seem significant but comes in very handy after her teenage son Nathan (David Leon) accidentally kills himself while drunk. Nathan is brought back to life unfortunately the process has the unwanted side effect of those brought back to life craving human flesh & those who are bitten also become flesh eating zombies, can Nathan sort the mess out he has started & end up with his childhood sweetheart Jessica (Samantha Mumba) before the entire town are turned into zombies?This Irish English co-production was directed by Stephen Bradley & is a sort of Zom Rom Com mixture of Dawn of the Dead (2004), Shaun of the Dead (2004) & maybe a touch of Casablanca (1942) which works better than it sounds overall but isn't anything outstanding. I do have to say that I love the title Boy Eats Girl, it's a clever pun & play on words that any cheap low rent Newspaper headline writer would be proud of! The script by Derek Landy isn't as much an out-and-out comedy as Shaun of the Dead was since most of it's comedic moments are one-liners or people reacting in silly ways to certain situations they find themselves in like someone taking an umbrella out of a golf bag to protect himself by accident rather than a golf club like his friends, the romance element is alright but a little corny while the horror aspects are OK with some decent blood & gore although it's not an overly dark film. I didn't like the clunky & contrived way Nathan is killed & then brought back to life, it sort of feels like the makers came up with the clever title & then came up with a story to fit it using various awkward ideas. I'm not too happy about the happy ending either where the hero gets the girl, the bad guy is killed & a cure for being a zombie is rather luckily found by complete accident. The film moves along at a reasonable pace with the last twenty minutes or so providing a fair amount of zombie action & it's not a boring film by any stretch of the imagination but not that much really happens when you think about it.Director Bradley does OK, it's odd to see a film set in Ireland let alone a horror film with flesh eating zombies. The Irish accents may put some off which is fair enough because I found them a tad irritating on more than one occasion, it's well made but doesn't really have much style. The special effects are actually pretty impressive & the zombies are of the fast moving type rather than the slow shuffling variety. There's a fair amount of gore here especially at the end, there are a few bites, some splashed blood, a gory ripped-off head, some intestine eating, a high heel stuck in a zombie's eye & a cool sequence where a pack of zombie's are sliced up with a wood chipper with guts, heads & severed limbs flying all over the place.According to the IMDb this had a budget of about $5,000,000 which sounds like a huge amount considering what ended up on screen, there's no big name stars, only one sequence with any real special gore effects & no big action scenes or set-pieces. Shot in Dublin in Ireland. The acting is alright but rather predictably Samantha Mumba who is better known as a pop singer is terrible & you know your in trouble when she's the 'name' in it.Boy Eats Girl has a wonderfully amusing title, unfortunately the film isn't anywhere nears as imaginative, funny or clever & it's as simple & straight forward as that. It's worth a watch if you like horror comedies but isn't anything brilliant whichever way you look at it. Good but not great.
