The Boys Are Back | Movie Review

I received The Boys Are Back on DVD a few weeks ago but it wasn’t until last night that I was able to finally view it. If you haven’t seen the movie when it came out in theaters, don’t fret – It comes out on DVD today so you can rent it or better yet buy the DVD because it was a great movie.  In my opinion, if a movie makes you cry or even make your eyes water just a bit, then it did its job.

The Boys Are Back was inspired by a true story and directed by Scott Hicks.  Joe Warr, played by Clive Owen, is suddenly a single parent due to unforeseen circumstances and he finds himself completely lost without his wife to face the challenges of a demanding job, running a household and being both a mother and father to his two sons.

So get your box of tissues ready because this movie will definitely touch your heart as well as your soul.
