Here Are the Young Men

In the gritty and unflinching drama "Here Are the Young Men", three Dublin teenagers embark on a journey that descends into chaos and destruction, leaving a trail of shocking acts in their wake. Based on the novel by Irish writer Rob Doyle, this 2020 film explores the dark side of male friendship and the devastating consequences of a social vacuum filled with drinking, drugs, and hopelessness. With a talented cast that includes Anya Taylor-Joy and Finn Cole, the movie shines a light on the toxic world of adolescent angst and rebellion, but ultimately falls short due to its derivative story and predictable turns.
