For a big, glitzy Hollywood entertainment, Rydell's movie opens a surprising number of wounds, and warns us to suspect the very glamour it revels in. It's no small accomplishment.

This movie is cold and distant when it isn't contrived, and by the end not even the manufactured emotions ring true.

At best, this is loose, baggy, lighthearted, aimless diversion.

For The Boys is not the work of art imagined, but it is a film that is grand, good-natured, and extraordinarily entertaining. [Full review in Spanish]
