I must admit having missed the modern meaning of "New Kids" in The Netherlands. I thought it to be only a shorthand for the boys band from many years ago. How wrong I was! A paraphrasic sketch on the Deventer Humor Festival 2010 was needed to put me straight and to trigger some google-ing, just to make me feel having lived under a rock for 3 years. Apparently, this sort of language and behavior was allowed on TV screens at hours suitable for family viewing. How come this did not raise questions in parliament? Why did it not invoke censorship from TPTB (The Powers That Be)?

Contradictory reviews are the best way to get me into a movie theater. Also, I was wondering how one could possibly fill nearly 90 minutes with (I thought) very thin material. But they succeeded splendidly, apart from the ending that was nearly as surreal as the ending of the first (1986) Flodder movie. Of course, it is easy to criticize this finale from my position as an innocent bystander. It could have been the only way to believably wrap-up the story line.

Though a lot of political incorrectness passes by, plus an overload of strong language, I don't think any viewer of any age will be turned into a follower. The crux lies in the degree of over-acting, effectively working out as a satire rather than setting an example. In the 90-ties we had similar discussions about the "Foutje, bedankt" ad for Reaal Verzekeringen, which some people assumed to induce insurance fraud. But the acting by Rijk de Gooyer was clearly recognizable as overly over-the-top, demonstrating it was not the right thing to do.

Speaking for myself, having lived at several locations in the province of Noord Brabant, the dialect sounded very natural. I could follow all dialogues without needing subtitles. I'm not sure, however, this will apply to other Dutch speaking people. There is sufficient testing material on several websites, just to become acquainted with the language and the behavior that seems to be the natural way of living in these circles. If you can't take it, do not go and stay home.

A nice twist was showing a series of bloopers while running the final credits. It worked perfectly to keep the usual early leavers on their seats. Will this introduce a new trend?

All in all, my final conclusion is that the movie is well made, casted perfectly, with the main actors performing very well. Their clothing and hair cut may not be the latest and greatest, but I assume that to be an integral part of the picture. The story has enough flesh to entertain us for 90 minutes. They surprised me positively with that, being an achievement in itself.

Hindsight addition one year later: My review of sequel "New Kids Nitro" is less favorable, and then I express myself euphemistically.

Fmovies: This movie sets the standard for this genre.

It is really a turbo version of the sketches.

In comparison to when Rambo stitches his own wound the version in this movie the guy acts much "cooler".

Funny how the audience reacts differently to the "killing" of animals in opposite to the "killing" of people in the movie.

Even though I don't like bad language, here it is fully appropriate. The bluntness is exact the way it should be.

For people who don't like this kind of movie: don't watch it and/or lighten up.

I had a big interest in this movie, because I have seen a lot of comedies from USA, Fance and Russia. I wondered how it is gonna be from Netherlands. Shortly... plot was with no surprises: they lost their jobs (some because of their fault, some, because of the crisis), refused to pay anymore just because they had no sense of responsibility . Actually in the middle of movie I had the feeling that script writer had no more other interesting ideas and that's why he played the old "movie in movie" joke. Actors were incredibly good. Soo stupid...omg!I really believed them. I think that, if characters of the movie are stupid, then why the script has to be the same, i. m. whit no sense of reality? So: script - undone, actors - great!

New Kids Turbo fmovies. This movie hardly contains a story.

But it was the first time in the cinema that a complete audience applauded for multiple jokes in the movie.

As well as breaking all movie records here in the Netherlands (where Harry Potter was expected to do that...)

In a way it's Flodder² ;)

If the US even considered remaking this movie so they have an English version it'd fail. Simply because the movie would be one big bleep as the most used word is c*nt.

I can fill this review, but as the movie I don't have anything more to say about it.

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)

First of all, I am an American.

And I enjoyed this movie very much. This is not a comedy for simpletons.. Yet they will enjoy it as well.

I think the acting was very good, (spot on!) and portrayed the characters just as they should have been. I loved how the characters dressed in outfits circa 1990's and followed failed trends of Americans.

There are a lot of smart jokes if you're quick enough to catch on, if not - there are plenty, and I mean plenty of crude humored situations as well.

I don't see how you can miss the entire story-line, but there is a story, and it comes together incredibly. Definitely different from the norm as far as stories and characters go.

I found this movie to be very clever and entertaining. I could not stop laughing throughout..
