Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Film Perfection

Brilliant and touching

Absolutely the worst movie.

Equally wild, offensive and funny; welcome to Maaskaant in Dutch Brabant. Fantastic, outrageous, violent and silly, the comedy doesn't relent. That is if one likes this sort of thing.Part two (Nitro) jumps right off the board and gets even more ridiculous with zombies, endless consumption of beer and marijuana, and some of the most outrageous and hilarious scenes ever put on screen.The New kids foray into cinema appears to have created something of a cult following, with a blanket theft of Maaskant signs, and a shortlived boost in sales of Aldi beer.

The New Kids were known for their sketches on the Dutch television and were popular amongst the youth. Having myself friends in Den Bosch near Maaskantje I probably will get the humor better then the average watcher because I get their dialect and typical expressions. Nevertheless I thought the short sketches were better then the movie. New Kids Turbo is just an average movie to me with stupid but okay humor, but without a great story or acting. Nothing to be excited about. The eighties culture of the Johnny's and Marina's with their Camino scooters, training tracks and mullets might be fun to watch for people that knew that era but for people that don't they might find it a bit dull and stupid. I watched it once and won't watch it again.

In case you do not know, New Kids are a miniseries of short clips about an asocial group of Dutch hillbilly stereotypes living in Southern Netherlands. These miniseries contain quick low-brow humour that doesn't care whom it offends, will not stop before any subject and doesn't take itself serious. Quite refreshing and well done actually.Now, New Kids popularity brought it onto the big screen, where it pretends to be a movie, but is basically the same miniseries as were shown on TV, just tied together with incoherent story bits to form a length of a movie.It is like the young writers and producers came to the director and said "We want to do an explosion. We also want to do this and this because the Dutch will find it funny, and we want to do this because our friend here took a bet that we wouldn't have the guts to show this on TV, and also we always wanted to do this so.....yeah...go and pull it all together in a movie. Good luck". Subsiquently, the story unwinds itself half way through the movie, a sacrifice needed to fit in all the other stuff these "Kids" wanted to do on national television.It is still funny to see the "sjonnie" stereotypes - the actors do a good job here. Some of the jokes are pretty good, even if simple and some of the scenes show signs of intelligence. However, the movie is not as funny as it pretends to be. In fact, the outtakes shown during the credits may get more laughs than the actual movie.Overall, for a Dutch person the movie is worth seeing, even if just to be able to say that he/she did. For an objective entity looking at this film from the side, there will not be that much to praise. At least compared to the other generic stuff seen on TV, this will be something different.

I've just seen New Kids Turbo in the cinema, and I'm not disappointed. The same humor is used as in the Sketches, and the storyline is worked out great. If you're a fan of New Kids you're also gonna like it. Everything is played very well, and you really get sucked into the movie, and I guess the whole cinema thought the same. Everyone was laughing all the time, and the humor in the movie isn't made for 'stupid' people. There are a lot of smart jokes, and great plot twists that make everything more enjoyable. (btw, sorry for my bad English, but come on.. It's a Dutch movie, nobody from other countries is gonna watch this)
