Visual aids you can expect when interviewing Taika. Speech bubbles.

"As Boy, James Rolleston anchors the film as securely as Robert De Niro anchors Taxi Driver, with a fraction of the effort."

"But it is the part that Waititi plays - behind the camera, even more than in front of it - that lends “Boy” its emotional heft. The movie can be silly at times - with some scenes animated as crayon drawings come to life - but it’s also smart, stylish and substantial. At age 36, Waititi is a filmmaker who seems wise beyond his years."

GO SEE IT! 

Boy is in theaters now!

Critic Review for Boy on washingtonpost.com

Taika Waititi and James Rolleston on The Sound of Young America (by Jesse Thorn) Rolleston plays “Boy,” a young Maori boy who lives with his grandmother. When she heads off to a funeral in the city, he’s put in charge of the house, and is shocked when his father, played by Waititi, comes home from jail. Boy and his father struggle to connect, as the father struggles with the responsibilities of adulthood. Rolleston and Waititi both offer vibrant and hilarious performances.

See BOY in theaters now.


"In the end, Boy far exceeds the expectations of the comedy genre because it never teeters on self-parody with brainless stunts and hollow jokes. Instead, it’s an ambitious, well-made movie that has the capacity to induce laughs, tears and high-scale pondering, all while reminding you of how insecure life is as a kid."
