Superheroes are often as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians, and sometimes even as revered as gods. But that's when they're using their powers for good. What happens when the heroes go rogue and start abusing their powers? When it's the powerless against the super powerful, the Boys head out on a heroic quest to expose the truth about the Seven and Vought, the multibillion-dollar conglomerate that manages the superheroes and covers up their dirty secrets. Based on the comic book series of the same name.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Boys stays true to its form and completes its mission with ample panache, narrative pay-off, and an excess of blood and guts to deviously glorious effect.

The Boys’ latest comeback is proving to be promising, though, in a way that bodes well for the conclusion of a series that once felt profane, fresh, and exciting. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
The show’s fifth and final season has a familiar structure... But it stays strong – there’s even more gore and screw-loose social media commentary. Go to Full Review

Movieview Studios T @RT59226496 5h Fantastic series, and for the most part well-executed. See more Luca O @RT13581220 13h Brutally fun. From watching "anticipations" of reality coming true over the years to become parallel to this last season was just insane. No matter how will finish at this point, thansk for the great ride! See more Evan E. @eblake10 18h This show is just another more woke live action version of Invincible with worse writing. Seriously AI can’t take over fast enough if we are just getting the same lazy default liberal narratives over and over. The outrageous contempt for Christianity is getting to be too much too. See more Traverse 1 @Halopay 1d Had a lot of potential but keeps getting worse and worse. It’s just too hard to ignore the blatant hypocrisy and caveman level nuance of criticisms on right-wing politics for exactly what the left does. Difference is, If they made the shows political criticisms about the left instead of the right, it wouldn’t be metaphors. See more kareem T @kareemthabet01 2d Watched until ep04 but can't watch anymore. kimiko's and the IDF guy's scenes are straight from a cringy show for high-school girls. Hughie's and Annie's are a touch better but still abysmal. AI can write better dialogue. Literally unwatchable. See more Mark H @MarkRMH 2d Great ccommentary on today's America.
