Wissenswertes
A previous version of this film had Bill Skarsgard providing his own voiceover for his character in the style of a Mortal Kombat announcer before H. Jon Benjamin was cast for the final version; the trailer featuring Skarsgard's voiceover has mostly been scrubbed from the internet. In the original concept trailer, Boy's inner voice is taken from a cigarette commercial, with a voice similar to Sam Elliott's.

Patzer
After Hilda arrives at the culling party, the downward total shot at 44:15 with Boy and Mina on the landing has exactly the same number and arrangement of macarons on the two plates between them as the shot from the same angle a minute earlier (43:27), even though Boy has in the meantime stuffed himself with macarons taken from those plates.

Zitate
Gideon Van Der Koy: Of course, if someone takes a big steamy shit in the sink, I'll stop doing the dishes.

Crazy Credits
After the credits there is an extra scene with the brother and sister sitting at the kitchen table eating breakfast cereal.

A full-throttle romp into absolute mayhem

I got the chance to see this movie early at an AMC Unseen Screen event -- and considering I was walking in thinking they were going to show the new Amy Winehouse biopic -- I was pleasantly surprised when we got our opening shots and realized I was in for a much different ride than I'd previously anticipated.

My immediate reaction is to compare Boy Kills World to John Wick -- it's certainly just as bloody. But the continuous underlying thread of humor throughout this movie juxtaposed with the gratuitous violence puts it more into the realm of Bullet Train in my mind.

Bill Skarsgård's physical acting paired with H. Jon Benjamin's voice acting was a matchup I never knew I needed in my life. There were several times where I genuinely laughed out loud -- even when the next scene was a quick crash to someone getting their head smooshed. They did a great job blending the action with the comedy while still getting you to care about the main character and his plight.

Definitely not for the weak of heart or stomach -- but if you're looking for a bloody fun romp through absolute mayhem that doesn't require much from you as a viewer, then you've found your film. I just saw it last night and I still say I'd for sure go see it again, even so soon after viewing.
