In “Boy Kills World,” we are transported to a dystopian world where televised bloodsport is used to maintain social order. The film opens with an intense world-building sequence that sets the stage for the action to come. We learn about the background of Bill Skarsgård’s character, “Boy,” who lost his family in a brutal act of violence and has spent his life training in martial arts by a helpful shaman.
The film’s colorful use of red and yellow may evoke memories of Kill Bill, but it also incorporates references to other cult classics such as Oldboy, Scott Pilgrim, and Deadpool. The tone is knowing and obnoxious, but somehow it lands just right.
First-time director Moritz Mohr throws caution to the wind with his hyperactive style and high body count. The film is full of slickly choreographed action sequences that showcase stunt performers at their best. While some may find the camera work frenetic, it perfectly captures the video game sensibility of the story. Overall, “Boy Kills World” is a wild ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
