The title -giving Boy (Skarsgård) has One goal in life: revenge. In the regime that is responsible for all his suffering. In the city in which he grew up, every year on a special holiday, the rebel and regime opponents are publicly executed. And one day it hit his family. His dead, beloved little sister has been a ghostly companion in his head since then.

Boy Kills World is a firework of action, evil humor and clever ideas
If you have nothing against a little-or rather a lot of bit-bitter, black, abstruse humor, you will breathless at Boy Kills World in two ways: breathlessly through the pace and hardness of the action and the trip-off fighting choreographies and breathless with laughter.
Since our protagonist is silent and deaf the film takes advantage of a clever trick: Boy can only read lips – and only as long as someone doesn’t mumble or speaks another language. At the same time, he comments on the entire event in his head and we are constantly involved in his often somewhat stubborn thoughts.
This combination ensures bizarre moments again and again, especially because Boy as a jungle child is extremely foreign to the world. His naive awkwardness and its verbalization in his head are in ancient, dangerous contrast to his predatory physique. At the same time, there is no saving with blood, cracking bones and truly bizarre opponents of fighting.
You have to like this split tonality, but if you like this kind of humor, you will be a grandiose time Boy Kills World on Netflix have.
