Why this movie is such a great success can be derived from the extremely negative comments above. This isn't a movie of great acting, screenplay, story or something which usually decides whether a movie is good or not. This movie shows insight into the cultural emptiness of the dutch lower classes. Because of that it's full of culture and refers mostly to the trends in the nineties. The hardcore music, the sportswear, the mopeds, the low sentence and even the 'opel manta' are examples of that. All dutch people sometimes have dinner at a 'friture' which significantly differs from a fast-food restaurant, though its purpose is the same. So that makes even the 'friture' part of dutch culture. Everything is tremendously recognizable for the nineties generation. The secret of this success lies in the way the characters were already formed and set for action in the short-series, which were broadcast two years before this release. Everybody knew what was coming and hoped it would be just like these series. Well it was... even better... or worse, whatever. Why are these guys so hilarious? Because they are serious... They had lousy jobs, no girlfriends, no perspective. If you will think the movie over, you should notice that these boys hardly make any jokes. But they act so empty-minded that even the dumbest person on earth would say: "These guys are really stupid." But if you look closer, you'll discover that they aren't really dumb. They are just utilizing their freedom (maybe dutch freedom) by drinking beer, smoking weed, stealing, harassing people and swearing all the time. The ultimate freedom: Parisiting on the dull establishment. Everybody wants to do that now and then, more or less. Retired millionaires also parasite on the dull establishment in some sense, don't they? These poor fellows also like doing nothing all day, don't you understand???? In a deeper meaning they reflect the desire of everybody who is part of the dull establishment and isn't a millionaire. In some way it's even a feel-good-movie, for people who can handle the rudeness of the boys from Maaskant.

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.

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.

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..

Just went to see it and I have to admit, the movie exceeded expectations tremendously. Having seen the sketches in before (and liking them a lot) I was really concerned that transforming this to a feature length movie would not work. I stand corrected. The story is quite thin, but that's not bad. The five main characters all loose their job on the same day and then decide not to pay for anything at all any more. With the rest of the country following their example the economy collapses. The government tries to put them in prison for it (but fails horribly) resulting in what the guys do best, putting up some sketch and making the whole audience laugh. There's one very bad point in the movie. (This is where the spoiler comes). It's the part where Reinout Oerlemans "walks in", declaring that the budget for the movie is spent and the cast just have to tell you the story. They really should not have done that. Apart from that, just sit back and enjoy the ride. Oh, and if you don't like the "New Kids" sketches on youtube, don't bother. You won't like the movie. If you're not familiar with those, find some especially the one with "the red one (die rooie)" and then decide. If you like them, go see it.

To understand a part of this movie you have to know a little history. I went to school in the 90's in Eindhoven, a city near the place were the movie takes place. In that time a lot of people dressed as the people in the movie, drove the Sita scooters and drive around in Opel brand cars pretending to be the tough guys. Those people were called Johnny and Anita's. Sneakers, sport clothing and the haircuts you see in the movie were all over the place. Those were great times as we laughed a lot at their stupidity and general behavior. So basically the writers/actors use that background and show us that kind of attitude and fashion is still alive in Maaskantje (the town were everything takes place). The actors behave like the Johnny's and Anita's back then, talking with an accent commonly used in that region. They are rebels, aggressive and lazy. The story itself is about all of them losing their jobs and when the bills get too much and they also lose their social security money, they decide no longer to pay their bills. Of course it gets them into trouble and their aggressive behavior gets them even more deeply into trouble, up to the point were the authorities have to step in... The movie looks good in all. Some stuff is funnier then other parts of the movie. Some cameo-appearances of (in)famous Dutch people. The actors are well know for their short video's from earlier New Kids and the Pulp Show and a lot of things will seem familiar looking at them and the movie. I had a great laugh, it's an entertaining movie but don't have great expectations watching it. Over 1 million people went to the cinema to see this movie and it's a big hit in Germany too. The German translation is hilarious since the real actors dubbed it, not stopped by their lack of speaking German! It is no wonder this movie scores big time in Germany after movies like 'Manta Manta' and 'Manta the movie'... ps don't watch this movie if you are a cop!

after the first half(i watched so much just because of the rating keep expecting for something nice to happen but till the end it was a waste of time :( ), i just pressed fast forward watching it in fast motion , is a waste of time for someone who appreciates intellectually made movies with a flavor of some kind of comedy, action etc. This i suppose wanted to be a comedy but because of the "to much stupidity" and boring action even the FEW moments where you can laugh a little are not so much of a laughter, for anyone with some IQ is a waist of time , i never write reviews in IMDb but for this movie with rating 7.0(13.04.2011) i wanted to say a word and to prevent someone else for wasting time with this because of his high rating (for now). don't want to watch a bad movie ? watch something else !

I must say, I didn't have high expectations when I saw the film and even the expectations I had, were shattered. I really enjoyed the sketches of the first two seasons (which at first weren't aired on TV, only on the internet (http://www.flabber.nl/)). These were really good. The sketches of the third season which were aired on Comedy Central in the Netherlands were not as good, but still made me chuckle from time to time. Then came the film New Kids Turbo. I did not expect a film made from characters out of sketches to be a success, and it really wasn't. Okay, the actors played their roles relatively OK, but the entire film sucked. I see the resemblance with the 90's culture in Noord-Brabant (I grew up near Maaskantje in the 90's) and that's about the only positive thing about New Kids Turbo. I didn't laugh once during the entire film, which is not a good thing, considering that it was supposed to be a comedy. Furthermore the storyline was really bad (there was no story). Halfway through the film I was thinking about turning it off, alas I did not. The entire film consists of cursing, shooting, and more cursing. Not really my idea of a fun time. Everything in this film is exaggerated, which is not actually a bad thing, but it is in this case when the entire youth of Holland is pretending to be a 'new kid'. All in all, my advice to you is: do not see this film! There are a lot of much better Dutch films! I really hope they decide to not make a sequel...
