5/10
Colourless despite all the colour
18 February 2024
The Loneliest Boy in the World is a unique story about a teenage boy who lost his mother in what he calls and accident. After being told to find friends, which is not an easy task for him, he begins to make his own by digging up corpses from recently passed people. He creates his own family of dead bodies in his house. But one day he wakes up to find them more alive than ever...

The movie is colorful and stylish, the actors do a good job portraying their characters, however this movie is riddled with clichés and plot holes. There are several things that are not adding up and the movie feels like it is unsure what it wants to be. It plays out like a kid's movie with horror aspects but has an R-rating and I think the movie should have decided for either one of those. It could have been much darker and more horrifying with more absurd and crazy storytelling, but it chooses to be a mixture and therefore be rather forgettable. [5,1/10]
