Critic Reviews for Blackmail Boy (Oxygono)

All Critics (12) | Top Critics (6) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (10)

  • In definite need of a sea breeze to cool off its overheated characters, the Greek melodrama Blackmail Boy reaches for tragedy but settles for soap opera.

    Kevin Crust

    Los Angeles Times

  • There are moments of amusing melodrama, but for the most part, the action is too preposterous to take seriously, and too serious to be very much fun.

    Elizabeth Weitzman

    New York Daily News

  • Toward the end, there's a delightful dream sequence, which shows that director-writers Michalis Reppas and Thanassis Papathanasiou aren't complete hacks. Perhaps they'll do better the next time out.

    November 18, 2005 | Rating: 1/4

    V.A. Musetto

    New York Post

  • The Greek film Blackmail Boy has the feel of farce at times, but much of the time it just seems determined to shock.

    November 17, 2005 | Rating: 2.5/5

    Anita Gates

    New York Times

  • The hysteria is relentless: shrieking, punching, puking, trigger pulling. Overheard bits of inane party chatter provide the only moments of levity; otherwise the theater of cruelty slogs on with no cathartic release.

    November 15, 2005

    Melissa Anderson

    Village Voice

  • The only trick the filmmakers pull off is wasting a perfectly cute Tsimitselis on a pair of underwear two sizes too big.

Audience Reviews for Blackmail Boy (Oxygono)

  • Dec 24, 2009
    Heavy duty dramatics and a sordid story but it's involving and the acting isn't bad if at times a bit over the top.
