Review of The Paperboy (2012) by Jonathan P — 16 Jul 2013

The Paperboy is a trainwreck that you can't look away from. From the McConaughey BDSM scene to the jellyfish scene The Paperboy is wrecked by the overlysexualized nature of the film that really provides little to the otherwise shallow script.

The Paperboy starts out strong but quickly delves into a story about sick people and one boys voyage into adulthood. Never really figuring out which angle to focus his energy director Lee Daniels loses control of his film after about 20 minutes and the rest is a mangled mess that still is hard to turn away from.
