Good Boys

Right now you can watch Good Boys in the US on fuboTV and Paramount Plus Premium — and it is funnier than its reputation suggests. A tight runtime that never overstays its welcome. 2,029 people have weighed in on TMDB, and the verdict leans heavily positive. Watch it for Jacob Tremblay — stay for everyone else around them. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on fuboTV.

Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, Good Boys is worth clearing space for. Sharp writing and a well-matched ensemble are what separate Good Boys from the crowd. A group of young boys on the cusp of becoming teenagers embark on an epic quest to fix their broken drone before their parents get home. Jacob Tremblay and Keith L. Williams lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2019. The real test of any comedy is whether it is still funny once you know all the jokes, and Good Boys holds up on rewatch in a way that separates it from one-off curiosities. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

Good Boys is the kind of thing you put on in the background and end up fully watching. It stands on its own even without an obvious comparison point. A contained runtime means every scene is doing real work. Jacob Tremblay anchors an ensemble with real chemistry. Genuinely funny, consistently, across the whole run.
