Summary: Little Mistake
Review: My dad was an extra in this movie. He was one of the mall security guards. If you look close, you can see him looking at a map on the wall, then walking around the mall at the same time. I know its nothing, just one of those things we noticed when first watching it.

Summary: One of my all time favorites (but I have a demented mind)
Review: My favorite part of the movie is when Roy drives around with the girl on the hood... I also use the line quite a bit that Roy says during the movie... "Almost doesn't count". He says it very matter of factly after Bo says he "almost killed that guy".
"Bob is a cool name, you can spell it the same forwards and backwards..."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Classic guy movie
Review: One of Charlie Sheen's least known movies, but a must for true fans of the actor. If I had to compare this movie with any other movie, I think it would be Falling Down. If you liked Falling Down, you'd probably like this movie as well. Like Falling Down, it contains a character who has, in an almost sane kind of way, gone off the deep end. As you're watching it, you tend to start to see things from Bo's (Sheen) perspective as things slowly, but steadily, get out of control. The movie also has a lot of politically incorrect scenes like Falling Down. If you're sensitive to this sort of thing, you'll probably hate this movie. If you're a fairly young (under 40) beer-guzzling guy looking for a fun movie to watch with the rest of the guys or you're a stereotypical jock in college, you'll probably love this movie and find some classic lines to repeat for years. Most women, however, will probably hate this movie or think that it's stupid.

The movie starts with a funny scene that I won't spoil for you, but the basic plot of the movie is that the two main characters are about to graduate from high school in a town and are destined to work in the local factory like their fathers and grandfathers. They decide to spend a weekend in the city to enjoy their last few moments of freedom (from school and work) by putting on some of their nicer clothes (see cover photo), eat someplace nice (The Sizzler), have some fun, and maybe go a little crazy. Things start getting out of hand during an altercation with a middle-eastern gas station attendant (Sheen's character refers to him as a "camel jockey") and get much worse from there.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is a brilliant, highly underappreciated film
Review: This an exceptional, virtually unknown film written by Glen Morgan and James Wong (who have produced and written numerous X-Files episodes) and was directed by Penelope Spheeris with gritty realism. It's the story of two outcast high school graduates who decide to take a short vacation the weekend before they are to start work at a local factory. It is soon revealed that one of the young men is somewhat disturbed and fed up with the way life has treated him and decides to take revenge on the world. The results are insightful and frightening. What is so interesting about this film is that it is presented from two perspectives. The character of Roy, played wonderfully by Maxwell Caulfield, is driven over the edge to the point where he can not be saved, while Bo, Charlie Sheen in a surprisingly good performance, gets so swept up in Roy's chaos that he loses sight of the fact that the things they are doing are wrong. This is a very chilling and realistic portrayel of the isolation and confusion that young people face everyday and how being tormented often leads to violent response. Many films have dealt with this issue before, but very few have been as truthful and effective as Boys Next Door.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Must see
Review: This is a great movie. I rented it a long time ago, not expecting much. It turned out to be one of the best movies I have ever seen. I recommend this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great 80s suspense film!
Review: This is one of those movies that for some reason is often overlooked by many viewers. True, it is a low-budget film starring two actors( Charlie Sheen, and Maxwell Caulfield) who haven't done anything remarkable in a about a decade, but it kept me on the edge of my seat all the way to the thrilling conclusion. Its cool to see the intense and belligerent performance by given by Maxwell Caulfield. I read a review on Amazon where someone compared this film to the movie Falling Down, I couldn;t agree more. The whole movie moves through a of a series of scenes consisting of everyday situations and shows how a psychotic and over the edge teen reacts to them, its not good. Charlie Sheen plays his timid sidekick more deteremined to winning his psychotic friend's affection rather than speaking up for himself and saying what they are doing is wrong. All and all a great movie and highley entertaining.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: VERY ENTERTAINING THRILLER
Review: TWO TEENAGERS [CHARLIE SHEEN AND MAXWELL CAULFIELD] DECIDE TO GO TO LA. ONCE THEY GET THERE, THEY COMMIT A SERIES OF RANDOM KILLINGS. THIS MOVIE IS REALLY UNDERRATED BY THE CRITICS. THIS IS A HIGHLY ENTERTAINING MOVIE. THE BEST THING ABOUT THIS MOVIE IS THAT IT KEEPS YOU WATCHING. THIS IS ONE OF THE BETTER CHARLIE SHEEN MOVIES. BUY THIS AS SOON AS YOU CAN! IT'S REALLY WORTH THE MONEY!
