Reviews:

good film that remains relatively faithful to its source
“The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys” is one of the best books I’ve read in awhile, so I was pretty stoked to see how it translated to film. The good news is, this coming-of-age tale (revolving around the themes of first love and adolescent mischief) remains faithful to its source, while expanding (successfully, I think) upon what was written in the book. This worked very well in Terry Zwigoff’s “Ghost World,” but there are times in “The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys” where the tone threatens to go from comedy-drama, to flat-out drama, to flat-out comedy. It always manages to regain its balance, though. The story revolves around Francis Doyle (Emile Hirsch) and Tim Sullivan (Kieran Culkin, who’s very good), altar boys with a comic-book fixation and a resentment of authority (represented here by Jodie Foster’s peg-legged Mother Superior); also on hand is Francis’ love interest, Margie (Jena Malone), who reveals herself to be a complicated, tragic figure.

As far as revisiting adolescence is concerned, “The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys” is accurate, funny, and even sad. However, it suffers from an over-emphasis on close-ups during key dramatic scenes, and the lead performance of Emile Hirsch is surprisingly weak (when he emotes, it looks exaggerated and fake). Overall, though, this is pretty good. 3.5 stars out of 5.
