Boytown

[erilyn]

Yesterday, iibnf, tapedeck, slashingthefox and I saw the new Aussie film Boytown, about a boyband of the late 80s/early 90s who reunite in their middle-age.

The songs are hysterical and the movie sustains the humour well (and you could slash the hell out of it!), but there was one major thing that pissed us all off, and makes me more reluctant to recommend the film. I've got a slightly spoilery warning behind the cut for how to see the film and not get pissed off.

Step 1 - Sit at the end of a row, not too far from an exit.
Step 2 - When they've got on the plane to go to the US at the end of the movie, GET UP AND LEAVE!!!

If you want to know why, I'm happy to tell.

If anyone has the soundtrack, I'd love to get it (we were too pissed off to buy it in JB HiFi afterwards.
