After asking lots of people and checking around on the internet, I have yet to find anything all that negative about Boise. So far all I have seen is positive reviews of Boise, so can anyone tell me anything negative about the Boise metro area?

Well considering where I'm at, it's too big of a city and not enough snow
You do have emissions regulations for your vehicle there and well now that's not really a bad thing though is it?

One thing about Boise is that the traffic is really, really bad. Other than that it is the best kept secret in the west.

Boise is such a great place that they even made a movie about it starring Richard Pryor. I hope those Boise home sellers who gutted the house, including the swimming pool, weren't part of the conservative majority.
U are saying this movie took place in Boise? I would like to rent this, what is the name of the movie?

it's called 'Moving',
Moving (1988)
Meet Arlo Pear! He's a family man with a loving wife, a rebellious daughter, twin sons, and a half-dead dog, he's also got a nice job with the city in New Jersey. He's a mass transit engineer. But one day Arlo is fired so he must try to get another job. He finds a similar one to his old one, except it's in Boise, Idaho. Sounds good to Arlo, so he can finally get away from his insane neighbor who has a lawn mower the size of Pennsylvania. Only problem, how to break it to the family? The decision is soon made: they're moving. Now they've got to sell their house which has hilarious results, so now they need to get movers. Two former cons now movers show up with King Kong Bundy. Now, they gotta find a new house in Idaho. They soon find their dream house, so they return to New Jersey and head off to Boise. Arlo hires a man (Dana Carvey) to drive his SAAB to Idaho, not knowing he's a man of eight personalities. And if that isn't bad enough, their new house is not what they expected, and their neighbor in New Jeresey's twin brother lives next door and he's got a gigantic mower also. And as if things couldn't get any worse, they do. Arlo loses his new job and the movers never showed up. So now it's time for Arlo to kick some serious A$$!
Sounds like a good movie, but does it really take place in Boise? and show what Boise looks like? Or is it just Hollywood scenery!!!!
it's been a while since I have seen that Richard Pryor movie but I believe it was filmed in Boise and not in Hollywood.
