Boy Erased is a really good drama that recounts a true story, which makes it all the more compelling and even harder to digest.
Lucas Hedges is riveting as Jared, a performance that earned him a Golden Globe nomination as Lead Actor. Nicole Kidman, Russell Crowe, Joe Alwyn, and Joel Edgerton are all excellent. Even Flea is very convincing in a pivotal role.
THE BOTTOM LINE: Here's a story that should be viewed by as many people as possible. It is so unfortunate that these types of "therapy" are still legal in many states and are forced on countless kids against their wishes and certainly against their best interests.
Grade: 8
