One of the Boys

The two adult actors Morten Burian and Rasmus Botoft, both known for many other rôles, were firing on one cylinder here. Their hearts just weren't in it. And I'm not surprised. They were meant to be mentors of a group of kids who'd been sent to the countryside to learn toxic masculinity. I'm sure they deplored any such thing on real life and it showed. They couldn't get any enthusiasm up for the concept.

The plot, such as it was, involving two strands, one of unrequited infatuation and the other the competion to find out who was the "real man" of the group of lads, was played out in four episodes of fifteen to nineteen minutes. So there was about an actual hour of action.

Plot development was sketchy and hurried as it had to be. Motivations for behaviour had to be guessed at rather than being organically shown to grow. Characters acted in the opposite way to their supposed personalities with no reason for it.

I'm sure a young audience might think this was fun. I have a more jaded eye at my age. Although I watched right through, I can't give this more than a three.
