Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 70/100 --
"The Boy" didn't screen for critics, but it's actually a pretty sturdy genre effort. Nearly free of gore... [the film] is careful and clever about revealing what Brahms really is, for he's certainly got a mind and will of his own.

The Boy is strange, odd and even awkward but we hope the sequel is truly scary... the real deal.

The Boy was much more successful than I imagined it could be. There were so many elements that worked in its favor such as the acting and an interesting plot line.

Rating: B --
"The Boy" is less about a life-size porcelain doll and more about the objectification of a vulnerable young woman by literally everyone around her. And the film is creepier and darker than you would expect in that regard.

The Monitor (McAllen, TX)
Rating: 3/4 --
Fans of Cohan and spooky flicks will find plenty to enjoy here - enough to give a positive recommendation for - but it will always feel like a missed opportunity not getting to see what we really hoped for.

Lauren Cohan is surprisingly decent acting alongside a porcelain doll), but the indisputable disaster of the story just ruins and squanders any semblance of entertainment value.

Flickering Myth
Rating: 2/4 --
The Boy certainly has its moments of shock value but the sluggish story feels lukewarm for the most part. It is such a shame that The Boy could not capitalize any further on its strange and hypnotic inclinations.
