"Girls With Balls" is somewhat of a mixture between movies such as "The Hills Have Eyes" and "Wrong Turn" and then thrown in with a good sense of comedy from the likes of "Dodgeball" or "Shaun of the Dead". An interesting enough combination actually.
However this 2018 movie, while being entertaining enough actually, failed to be more than just your average horror comedy. It didn't manage to make itself stand out in the horror comedy genre, not even by throwing in balls. The movie is watchable and entertaining enough, for sure, but it just wasn't a movie that left a lasting impression once it was finished.
There is a fair amount of comedy in the movie, both sublime and in-your-face types, which appealed to me. And the fact that it was spruced up with some horror elements, just helped to put icing on the cake.
The movie did have a good cast assembly, though I can't claim to be familiar with anyone on the cast list. Which, for me, is a good thing, as I enjoy watching all new faces on the screen when watching movies.
I am rating "Girls With Balls" from writers Jean-Luc Cano and Olivier Afonso - with the latter also directing the movie - a mediocre five out of ten stars. It was entertaining enough for what it turned out to be - just don't get your hopes and expectations up too high.
