Superheroes are often as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians, and sometimes even as revered as gods. But that's when they're using their powers for good. What happens when the heroes go rogue and start abusing their powers? When it's the powerless against the super powerful, the Boys head out on a heroic quest to expose the truth about the Seven and Vought, the multibillion-dollar conglomerate that manages the superheroes and covers up their dirty secrets. Based on the comic book series of the same name.

Critics Consensus

The Boys stays true to its form and completes its mission with ample panache, narrative pay-off, and an excess of blood and guts to deviously glorious effect.

The Boys’ latest comeback is proving to be promising, though, in a way that bodes well for the conclusion of a series that once felt profane, fresh, and exciting.

3.5/5

The show’s fifth and final season has a familiar structure... But it stays strong – there’s even more gore and screw-loose social media commentary.

The greatest existential threat in the show's final season turns out to be reality itself.

4.5/5

The Boys season 5 is a wild ride with some pretty high risks, but the show nails just about all of them.

8/10

As The Boys races towards a final showdown with the power-mad Homelander, it raises the spectacle level without sacrificing the heart and soul that make it essential viewing.

I know it's about today's politics,but damn i just want to watch a show about normal dudes fighting superheroes not a a lecture about how much Trump sucks, a show that foucese on political correctness more than the subject that made the show shine among sups trash,characters have became superficial and unbelievably flat, as i said story wise it's all about PC and Trump's administration that 70% of the whole world (your fans from other countries,yes there's humans outside of America,shocker) can't even relate too while they related too the irrogance of sups and Co's being evil 4 seasons went to the drain tbh

This is total garbage. Setting aside the fact that they’ve trashed the source material, the show has turned into a circus of distorted-Botox survivors pushing the alphabet agenda and hate for America. 🤮

Fantastic series, and for the most part well-executed.

Brutally fun. From watching "anticipations" of reality coming true over the years to become parallel to this last season was just insane. No matter how will finish at this point, thansk for the great ride!

This show is just another more woke live action version of Invincible with worse writing. Seriously AI can’t take over fast enough if we are just getting the same lazy default liberal narratives over and over. The outrageous contempt for Christianity is getting to be too much too.

Had a lot of potential but keeps getting worse and worse. It’s just too hard to ignore the blatant hypocrisy and caveman level nuance of criticisms on right-wing politics for exactly what the left does. Difference is, If they made the shows political criticisms about the left instead of the right, it wouldn’t be metaphors.
