You can now rent or buy the British thriller The Good Boy, starring Anson Boon (known from MobLand). The film centers on Tommy, a rebellious 19-year-old who finds himself chained up and held captive by a strange family after a night out.

Chris, the leader, informs Tommy he’s going to help him change for the better, but Tommy is determined to escape. However, with his every move monitored and Chris concealing a dangerous temper behind a friendly facade, Tommy wonders if escape is even possible.

You can now buy or rent The Good Boy on platforms like Amazon and Apple. Currently, it costs £13.99 to buy and £9.99 to rent.

The film has received excellent reviews, including a five-star rating from Digital Spy, who described it as unique and full of surprising twists.

NYC Movie Guru praised the film as a gripping, provocative, and surprisingly unpredictable psychological thriller. Flickering Myth called it quietly unsettling and thought-provoking, highlighting strong and compelling performances by Graham and Boon.

Critics drew comparisons to A Clockwork Orange, and The Guardian noted that while the film is filled with harsh ironies and cruelties, director Jan Komasa also encourages viewers to think about what Chris is truly trying to achieve.

For fans of Stephen Graham, his acclaimed British drama This Is England is now available to watch for free on streaming services in the UK.

I absolutely loved this film! It came out in 2006 and was made by Shane Meadows. It’s set way back in the 80s and stars Thomas Turgoose as Shaun Fields, a 12-year-old boy who gets mixed up with a skinhead gang in the East Midlands. Vicky McClure is in it too, which is awesome!

The Good Boy is available to buy and rent now from outlets like Amazon or Apple.
