Review of The History Boys (2006) by Leila M — 11 Jan 2009
A boring, vainglorious effort that is simply a carbon copy of the play rather than an on screen adaptation. The boys' performances are so-so and come off annoyingly cocky, lacking in any genuine depth.
The teachers, on the other hand, are quite superb characters and excellently pulled off. All in all, quite unimpressive.
