Review of The History Boys (2006) by Kayvon P — 30 Jun 2008

Intriguing at times, this intelligent misfire is far too slow and boring for my taste. This English foreign movie documents high schoolers in England aiming for the Oxford echelon of universities. The acting is superb but there are far too many overly intellectual moments that dull out the true passion of the plot which chronicles the students endeavors.

Decent movie and entertaining to check out but you might fall asleep at parts. Beware of some definitely interesting interactions between teacher and pupil!
