Contents





The Adventures of Huck Finn

star(s): Elijah Wood ***1/2*

additional information:
Elijah and his glowing blue eyes are a joy to watch. His shirt is in various stages of openness, at times so tantalizingly close to revealing his entire chest. One of the best boy actors ever in prime form. (Cub Cuddler)


At Play in the Fields of the Lord

star(s): Niilo Kivirinta (Billy Quarrier) *****

additional information:
Full frontal nudity of blond white boy on several occasions. Also lots of nude native boys. (Cub Cuddler)


Avalon

star(s): Elijah Wood (Michael) ***

Elijah's first movie at about the age of 9. He is a fairly major character and is in alot of scenes. And yes those eyes are most definitely there even at that age. (Cub Cuddler)


Bad News Bears

star(s): Unknown ***1/2*

You can't go wrong with a movie about Little Leaguers. Tanner and 'the Looper' are on the All-Star team. (Cub Cuddler)

star(s): Unknown ***

additional information:
Tanner and the gang are back. Unfortunately 'the Looper' is seldom seen. (Cub Cuddler)


The Beiniker Gang

star(s): Danny Pintario (Ben) **1/2*

additional information:
Danny's second movie and he's just as cute as in Cujo, you just dont get to see as much of his cute little bod is all. There are alot of people Im sure who would have liked to have been in charge of little Danny and this band of orphans who run away. (Cub Cuddler)


The Black Stallion

star(s): Kelly Reno (Alec) ****

additional information:
The first half is great, lots of shots of Kelly along the beach wearing only what amounts to a loincloth. When it gets wet (as happens alot) it becomes basically transparent. He hasn't got the cutest face in the world but this movie shows off his body very well. The perfect movie for those who enjoy admiring the young male form. (Cub Cuddler)


Blank Check

star(s): Brian Bonsall (Preston) ***

additional information:
Little Brian isn't as cute as he was when he was younger but he's still nice, especially when he appears shirtless. (Cub Cuddler)


The Blue Lagoon

star(s): Unknown **1/2*

additional information:
Young boy and girl get trapped on desert island need I say more? Only first 30 minutes are worth watching. VCR Freeze Frame Moment: Boy and girl are running down the beach nude, freeze at the very end and you can see his butt. (Cub Cuddler)


The Boy Who Could Fly

star(s): Fred Savage (little brother) **

additional information:
The very first movie (at about age 8) of one of the cutest boy actors ever. Although not admittedly as cute in this movie as at age 11 (see Vice Versa). (Cub Cuddler)


Captain Ron

star(s): Benjamin Salisbury (Ben) **

additional information:
A slapstick comedy with a fairly cute boy. At one point he plays strip Monopoly(now theres a good party idea). (Cub Cuddler)


The Champ

star(s): Ricky Schroder *****

additional information:
The Birth of a Legend. Little Ricky couldn't get any cuter than he did with this movie. VCR Freeze Frame Moment: Rick and his dad are pulling their clothes off to go swimming. Ricky moves so quick he pulls down his shorts and you can see his butt. (Cub Cuddler)


A Christmas Story

star(s): Peter Billingsley (Ralphie) **

additional information:
Peter's looks are too obscured by those glasses for my tastes. (Cub Cuddler)


The Client

star(s): Brad Renfro (Mark) **1/2*

additional information:
A fairly good(ie very watchable but not in the same league as The Fugitive, Road Warrior,et al) action flick about two white trash boys who see too much while sneaking a smoke one day. Brad is 13 and is basically the star of the show as he plays the wise ass, street smart older brother. The younger brother is about 10 and cuter. Unfortunatly he spends most of the movie lying in a hospital bed. (Cub Cuddler)


The Cowboys

star(s): Unknown ***

additional information:
Features about 10 or so boys, most pretty good looking. A real treat for the eyes. (Cub Cuddler)


Cujo

star(s): Danny Pintario (Tad) ****

additional information:
Danny's first movie and his cutest. The heart begins to race faster as the movie goes along leading up to the end where the almost nude Danny is sweaty and hot. A must see for all of his fans from TV. VCR Freeze Frame Moment: At the end of the movie as little Danny's oh so adorable nearly nude body is lying in the car for one brief second you can see down the front of his shorts as his stomach breathes in and out. (Cub Cuddler)


D.A.R.Y.L.

star(s): Barret Oliver (Daryl or D.A.R.Y.L.) ***

additional information:
Cute Barret Oliver is back again, slightly older than in Neverending Story but still cute. Story is fairly good but fails to live up to its potential. (Cub Cuddler)


Dennis the Menice

star(s): Mason Gamble ****

additional information:
Little Mason is a cutie and is given many chances to show off his cuteness. He is in the bathtub several times and shirtless in several other scenes. Could be the next Ricky Schroder. (Cub Cuddler)


The Devils Playground

star(s):

additional information:
You might also want to see THE DEVILS PLAYGROUND and LOVE STRANGE LOVE -- both are great movie with great boy actors -- (NPCF02A@prodigy.com (Marcus Cassity))


Double McGuffin

star(s): Unknown **

additional information:
Gang of boys solves a mystery. Youngest one isn't bad looking. (Cub Cuddler)


Dutch

star(s): Unknown **

additional information:
Man and boy travel cross country and 'bond' together. An interesting plot idea that makes this a movie to check out on a slow night. (Cub Cuddler)


The Earthling

star(s): Ricky Schroder ****

additional information:
The perfect showcase movie for Ricky's cuteness. Little Ricky's parents are killed while on vacation in Austrailia leaving him to fend for himself until a man (William Holden) reluctantly agrees to let him come with him. (Cub Cuddler)


Empire of the Sun

star(s): Christian Bale (Jim) *****

additional information:
A feast for the eyes. Young Christian is a pleasure to watch throughout the movie. Features some wonderful close-ups of his peaches and cream face and a soundtrack that will have you dreaming of choirboys for a week. (Cub Cuddler)


Fallen Idol, the

star(s): Bobby Henry **

additional information:
An old movie about a young blond French boy who worships the butler. The butler doesn't seem to be all that interested in the boy tho, which is a shame. The story revolves around an affair the butler is having. (Cub Cuddler)


For a Lost Soldier

star(s): Maarten Smit (Jeroen) ****

additional information:
One of the most talked about man/boy films in a long time it is certainly a very interesting movie to watch. However as I left the theater I kept thinking to myself 'I would have liked to have seen more of the relationship between Walt and Jeroen as it grew and flowered'. The movie is a look back at one boys brief love affair with a Canadian solder during WWII. Any boy lover will have to smile at some of the sceans between the two as they try and overcome the language barrier and the boys initial waryness of adults. And when they engage in passionate kisses the pulse rate is sure to go up. However, the nagging feeling there are holes in what you are seeing persistes , things about the relationship you would like to see but dont. For instance, the two are seen eyeing each other at a dance from a distance. Next scene the two are in empty dance hall dancing intimently. It certainly would have been interesting to watch how this happened. This is a good movie, a few changes and it could have been great. (Cub Cuddler)


Forever Young

star(s): Elijah Wood (Nat) ***

additional information:
Elijah and his blue eyes are, unfortunately, relegated to a supporting role in this movie. However, he is on screen enough to satisfy his many fans and his 'romance' with Mel Gibson is interesting to watch. (Cub Cuddler)


Free Willy

star(s): Jason James Richter (Jesse) ***

additional information:
A boy falls in love with a whale. Unfortunately the boy is only average looking and is never seen shirtless, despite what the advance publicity for the movie might indicate. However this is a promising story idea and the boy is on screen almost the whole time. One very interesting scene for the boy watcher will be Jesse's appearance in a wet suit. From that you can easily tell he's all boy. So if your looking to spend a few hours gazing at an 11 yr old boy this could be the movie for you. (Cub Cuddler)


The Golden Child

star(s): Unknown **

additional information:
Great scene where Eddie Murphy is playing basketball on the playground, shirtless boys everywhere. (Cub Cuddler)


The Good Son

star(s): Macaulay Culkin, Elijah Wood ****

additional information:
The two biggest boy stars around are together on screen and both are as attractive as ever. As you would imagine either one or both are on screen the whole time, making for very enjoyable viewing of this 'thriller' in which Mac tries to kill Elijah. (Cub Cuddler)


The Goonies

star(s): Sean Astin (Mikey), Corey Feldman (Mouth), ect ****

additional information:
Great kid flick. Sean Astin was quite a looker back then. (Cub Cuddler)


Home Alone

star(s): Macaulay Culkin ****

additional information:
No explanation is needed (Cub Cuddler)


Home Alone 2

star(s): Macaulay Culkin ****

additional information:
Mac is back! And shirtless too! Enough said. (Cub Cuddler)


A Home of Our Own

star(s): T.J. Lowther **

additional information:
A dull movie-of-the-week type plot and boys that don't exactly make your heart race doesn't exactly add up to a good movie. However, T.J.is cute and is shirtless in one scene. See this one on a REALLY slow night. (Cub Cuddler)


Honkytonk Man

star(s): Kyle Eastwood (Whit) ***

additional information:
Kyle accompanies dad on trip to Nashville. He's a fine looking boy and a pleasure to watch. (Cub Cuddler)


Hope and Glory

star(s): Sebastion Rice Edwards (Bill) **1/2*

additional information:
Young Sebastion is a typical British boy, nice soft complexion, cute little body. (Cub Cuddler)


Into the West

star(s): Ciaran Fitzgerald (Ossie), Ruaidhri Conroy (Tito) **1/2*

additional information:
Two Irish urchans steal a horse and ride across Ireland. Both are average looking. (Cub Cuddler)


The Island

star(s): Jeffery Frank (Justin) **

additional information:
A boy and his father are kiddnapped by pirates. The boy is brainwashed into becoming one of them. He is about 12 and not bad looking. (Cub Cuddler)


Jack The Bear

star(s): Robert Steinmiller (Jack), Miko Hughes (Dylan) ***

additional information:
Pleasant to watch, tho neither boy is exceptionally cute. A couple of scenes with younger in underwear. Older boy (Robert) is on screen almost entire movie. (Cub Cuddler)


Josh and Sam

star(s): Noah Fleiss (SAM) **

additional information:
Not a great movie but watchable on a slow night. The main boy (Noah) is not exceptionable but alright none the less. The story is rediculious and not believeable for a second, dont miss the tanning bed scene near the end tho. (Cub Cuddler)


King of the Hill

star(s): Jesse Bradford (Aaron), Cameron Boyd (Sullivan) ***1/2*

additional information:
A boy and his brother growing up during the Depression. Jesse (12) is alright looking and little Cameron (7) is fairly cute in this realistic portrayal of life in the 1930's. (Cub Cuddler)


Kramer vs. Kramer

star(s): Justin Henry ***

additional information:
Justin, the youngest person ever to be nominated for an Academy Award, is a cute little boy. He appears several times in underwear and once shirtless. (Cub Cuddler)


Last Flight of Noah's Ark, the

star(s): Ricky Schroder (Bobby) ****1/2*

additional information:
Little Ricky in his prime. The subject of many mens dreams appears in his underwear for one unforgettable scene and shirtless in several others. The plot in this Disney movie is as thin as little Ricky's undies but any excuse to see him in his briefs and shirtless sounds great to me. A must-see for any Ricky fan. VCR Slow-Mo Moment: The one minute of tape where Ricky is in his undies. Whew! (Cub Cuddler)


Leolo

star(s): Maxime Collin (Leolo) *****

additional information:
Surely one of the weirdest movies ever made but a must see for the boy watcher. Leolo is a handsome boy who engages in some bizarre sex acts. Enough said. (Cub Cuddler)


Little Buddah

star(s): Alex **1/2*

additional information:
Buddist monks come to Seattle in search of the reincarnaion of their Lamah, who they believe is now an 8 year old boy. Little Alex is a CUTE blond boy who appears in half the sceans. The movie itself, while interesting in places, has writing and acting that leave something to be desired. (Cub Cuddler)


Little Giants

star(s): Unknown ***

additional information:
Following in the footsteps of Mighty Ducks comes this movie about Pee Wee football. The boy you'll probably fall in love with is the one who appears in a shark shirt the first time you see him. He's a real fox. The boy playing Jr. is a looker too. There are a couple of underwear sceans thrown in for good measure. (Cub Cuddler)


Little Lord Fauntleroy

star(s): Ricky Schroder ****1/2*

additional information:
Little Ricky at his cutest age. (Cub Cuddler)


The Little Rascels

star(s): Unknown **1/2*

additional information:
A remake of the classic Our Gang series of the 1930's. Some of the scenes are lifted right from the original series and overall this is a fairly amusing movie. Many of the boys are cute, in a 5 yr old sort of way, and they certainly have the right philosophy in life: avoid girls and you'll save yourself alot of trouble. (Cub Cuddler)


Lord of the Flies (original)

star(s): James Aubrey (Ralph), Tom Chapin (Jack), Tom Gaman (Simon), =09 Surtees twins (Sam and Eric) *****

additional information:
Great movie with 10-15 boys shirtless throughout almost the whole movie. Captures their chests especially well. Laserdisk Edition: Reciently Lord of the Flies was remastered for the Criterion Collection on laserdisc. This is a MUST HAVE disc! Not only does the image look sharper than ever but included on the disk are numerous extras. At the end there is approx 20 mins. additional footage such as outtakes (yes, some with nudity), stills from production, film of the boys arrival in Puerto Rico, screen tests, the trailers for both this version and the 1990 remake, and excerpts from a newspaper the boys published. Also, during the film itself, in addition to the digital audio track containing the soundtrack there is commentary by several makers of the film on Analog track 2 providing lots of inside stories about the production (did you know that except for one scene all the dialog is dubbed?). There is also narration by the author, William Golding, on Analog track 1. If you love Lord of the Flies this is the way to see it! (Cub Cuddler)


Lord of the Flies (remake)

star(s): Balthzar Getty (Ralph) ****

additional information:
A pretty good flick, doesn't live up to the original though. (Cub Cuddler)


Love Strange Love

star(s):

additional information:
You might also want to see THE DEVILS PLAYGROUND and LOVE STRANGE LOVE -- both are great movie with great boy actors -- (NPCF02A@prodigy.com (Marcus Cassity))


Macbeth (Roman Polanski version)

star(s): Mark Dightam (Macduff's son) ****1/2*

additional information:

The Man Without A Face

star(s): Nick Stahl ****

additional information:
A 13 year old from a messed up family seeks out Mel Gibson to tutor him. After a rough start Mel begins to 'bond' with the boy. When the boy discovers the truth about his dead step-father he runs to Gibson for 'comfort'. He spends the night there wearing only T-shirt and underwear. When police come searching for the boy it is revealed that Gibson is suspected of 'molesting' a 13 yr old former student. Although this movie makes it clear that the relationship between Gibson and the boys is purely platonic it does make the strong point that men and boys can be in love. (Cub Cuddler)


Meatballs

star(s): Chris Makepiece (Rudy) ****

additional information:
This very funny comedy about a summer camp will bring back memories for some. Needless to say there are many cute campers to watch to go along with the 'bonding' between Rudy and Tripper. (Cub Cuddler)


The Mighty Ducks

star(s): Unknown ***

additional information:
Some cuties on a hockey team in the Bad News Bears on Ice. (Cub Cuddler)


Milk Money

star(s): Michael Patrick Carter (Frank) ****

additional information:
This movie is about 3 boys who go into the city to see a naked lady. The leading boy is played by Michael, a fine specimen of boyhood! There are several shirtless sceans with him, including one where the woman askes them to raise their shirts so she can see their chests. Yummy! This is a cute movie with a few laughs and I could sit and stare at Michael for hours. (Cub Cuddler)


The Mosquito Coast

star(s): River Phoenix (Charlie) ***

additional information:
Many nice shots of River and the boy who played younger brother shirtless. (Cub Cuddler)


Motorama

star(s): **

additional information:
A very strange movie about a 10-year old boys quest to win a contest. He is a handsome lad who has many unpleasant things happen to him on the road. There is one scene where he is in boxers. Not for the faint of heart. (Cub Cuddler)


Murphy's Romance

star(s): Corey Haim ***

additional information:
Corey Haim at his cutest age. Love those tight jeans he wore. (Cub Cuddler)


My Life as a Dog

star(s): Unknown ****

additional information:
Swedish film starring young boy. He's not that cute but has several memorable scenes, including one where he gets bottle stuck on his cock. (Cub Cuddler)


The Neverending Story

star(s): Barret Oliver (Bastian) Noah Hathaway (Atreyu) ****

additional information:
Both are a real treat to watch. Weather its the shirtless Noah or the cute Barret this movie is a feast for the eyes. (Cub Cuddler)


North

star(s): Elijah Wood (North) ***

additional information:
The current #1 boy star is the title character in this amusing but hardly hilarious comedy. At age 13 he's still handsom and, yes, those beautiful eyes are still there. The plot revolves around Elijah divorcing his parents and conducting a worldwide search for new ones. Well I for one would be more than happy to adopt Elijah and Im sure Im not alone in that regard. He appears shirtless for only the second time in his movie career for an all too brief moment in this film. (Cub Cuddler)


Oliver

star(s): Mark Lester (Oliver) ****

additional information:
A real cutie, especially the shirtless scene during 'I'll Do Anything For You'. Note: This was the last musical ever to win the Academy Award for Best Picture. (Cub Cuddler)


Paradise

star(s): Elijah Wood **1/2*

additional information:
A remake of 'The Grand Highway'. Nice scene with him swimming in underwear. (Cub Cuddler)


Pelle the Conqueror

star(s): Pelle Hvenegaard (Pelle) ****

additional information:
Pelle is a handsome young Swedish lad and naturally, according to some law of film which states all boys in European films must appear nude, he has several VCR Freeze Frame Moments where his body is put on display for all to see. (Cub Cuddler)


A Perfect World

star(s): T.J. Lowther (Phillip) ****

additional information:
In this movie Kevin Costner does what every boy lover longs to do, 'bond' with an 8 year old boy. In this movie the boy, who is fairly cute I might add, is in his underware for the first half of the movie, witch makes for some interesting shots. At one point the boy willingly shows Costner his penis to determain whether it is 'puny' or not. Although the plot doesn't go where I or most boy lovers would want it to go it is certainly an interesting idea and 'stimulating' to watch at times. (Cub Cuddler)


Princess Bride

star(s): Fred Savage (Grandson) ***1/2*

additional information:
A cameo role for Fred but that oh so cute face never looked better. (Cub Cuddler)


Radio Flyer

star(s): Elijah Wood, Joey Mazzello *****

additional information:
Many close shots of Elijah's glowing blue eyes. He looks much cuter in this movie than in the earlier Paradise. The little brother in the movie is really cute. (Cub Cuddler)


Raggedy Man

star(s): Henry Thomas ***

additional information:
The very first movie for Henry Thomas. Several scenes where him and cute little brother are shirtless, including one in underwear. (Cub Cuddler)


River Wild, the

star(s): Joey Mazzello ***

additional information:
Watching this movie I kept thinking 'I hope I get to see him shirtless'. The him of course is Joey Mazzello and my patience was finally rewarded near the end of the movie by a brief shirtless shot. Little Joey seems to be the master of the adoring look and is as cute as ever in this action movie. (Cub Cuddler)


The Road Warrior

star(s): Unknown ***

additional information:
The Ferral child, a young boy who wears basically nothing. Enough said. (Cub Cuddler)


Rockets Gibraltar

star(s): Macaulay Culkin **

additional information:
Mac's first movie. Also several other boys that are nice to look at. (Cub Cuddler)


Rookie of the Year

star(s): Thomas Ian Nicholas ***

additional information:
12 year old boy gets to pitch for the Cubs. He's OK looking and there are some shots of shirtless boys in stands. An OK movie that would be great with a few cast changes. (Cub Cuddler)


Sandlot

star(s): Thomas Guiry ***

additional information:
The boys are mostly unexceptional but the main boy is not bad. There is one scene in a swimming pool with all the boys. (Cub Cuddler)


Santa Clause, the

star(s): Eric Lloyd (Charlie) ***

additional information:
Little Eric looks cute in his pjs and some of the 'elves' (who look suspiciously like boys) aren't bad looking either in this comedy where everyones favorite Tool Man (and the envy of every Boy Lover) becomes the patron saint of Boy Lovers, St. Nick. (Cub Cuddler)


Searching for Bobby Fischer

star(s): Max Pomeranc *****

additional information:
This an excellent movie. Newcomer Max Pomeranc is a very attractive boy with wonderful eyes. He is on-screen almost the whole time as he plays a young chess prodigy. He is seen in a swimming pool and a couple of times in the bathtub. (Cub Cuddler)


Shadowlands

star(s): Joey Mazzello (Douglas) ***

additional information:
All of Joey's fans can get a quick fix with this movie if they cant get a hold of Jurrasic Park or Radio Flyer. He plays a supporting role is this true story about the life of C.S. Lewis. Besides Joey, the presence of the wonderful Anthony Hopkins and the British setting make this an enjoyable movie to watch. (Cub Cuddler)


Silent Fall

star(s): Ben Faulkner **

additional information:
A pretty slow movie with a very interesting plot twist at the end. Ben is an average looking boy playing an autistic witness to a murder. Some very exotic pictures of him come into play towards the end of the movie. Not a must-see but interesting if you get a chance. (Cub Cuddler)


Sleepless In Seattle

star(s): Ross Malinger ***

additional information:
Little 8 year old Ross tries to find a new wife for his dad. He is a cute boy. Unfortunatly we dont get to see enough of him. (Cub Cuddler)


This Special Friendship

star(s): Unknown *****

additional information:
A boy-love classic that will bring a smile to anyone who has ever been in love with a young boy. Story about a 16 year old who has a romantic relationship with an 11 year old. (Cub Cuddler)


Time Bandits

star(s): Craig Warnock (Kevin) ****

additional information:
Craig is a fine looking boy a la Barret Oliver (see Neverending Story) who is in almost every scene. Really nice to look at. (Cub Cuddler)


3 Ninjas

star(s): Unknown **1/2*

additional information:
Three Boys become Ninjas. Unfortunately, their karate suits dont reveal enough chest to allow for full appreciation of their cuteness. 'Rocky' is the best looking in the opinion of this reviewer. (Cub Cuddler)


Vice Versa

star(s): Fred Savage (Charlie) ****1/2*

additional information:
Fred at his cutest, he is on screen almost the whole time and is great to watch. (Cub Cuddler)


Vito and the Others

star(s): Unknown ***

additional information:
Provocative Subject matter as a bunch of street boys become prostitutes and Vito is raped in jail. Unfortunately none of this is graphically shown and there is no nudity. (Cub Cuddler)


War, the

star(s): Elijah Wood (Stu) ***

additional information:
The greatest boy star of his generation has hit puberty in this comming of age movie set in the rural South during Vietnam. However, everyone who has a soft spot in his heart for Elijah will appriciate the fine performance he gives in this movie. He also appears in his underwear giving one pause to reflect how much he has changed since his undies appearance in Paradise. There are some younger boys that might be attractive, if they weren't so dirty. The story itself is somewhat wooden and slow, saved only by the good acting. (Cub Cuddler)


The Wizard

star(s): Fred Savage ***

additional information:
boys and a girl travel halfway across the country. Both Fred and other boy are cute. (Cub Cuddler)
