The jokes in the movie did not land for me. I did not find the movie funny at all, and actually was offended during several scenes.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As someone who identifies as straight, I may not have been the target audience for "Bros." However, I believe it's important to analyze films from different perspectives. While the movie had its flaws, it did have some redeeming qualities that are worth mentioning.
One aspect that stood out was the film's cinematography. The visuals were well-executed, and certain scenes were visually captivating. The attention to detail in these moments deserves appreciation.
Moreover, "Bros" attempted to explore the side plot of a gay museum, which, although somewhat cliché, provided an interesting backdrop for the story. While it may not have been executed perfectly, it offered a unique perspective and shed light on a lesser-known aspect of LGBTQ+ culture.
It's true that the main character was portrayed as insufferable and unlikable, which hindered the overall experience. His character arc was not as impactful as it could have been, and his initial portrayal as a sexaholic didn't evolve until much later. This lack of character development made it difficult to fully invest in his journey.
Additionally, the humor in the movie didn't always hit the mark. Some jokes fell flat, while others relied on tired mom jokes. This aspect could have been improved by incorporating more clever and original humor that resonated with a broader audience.
Although "Bros" lacked a solid romance foundation, there were glimpses of genuine emotional connection between the characters. Expanding on these moments and further developing the chemistry between them could have strengthened the overall romantic aspect of the film.
In conclusion, "Bros" had its merits, particularly in terms of cinematography and its exploration of the gay museum concept. However, the unlikable main character, underwhelming character development, and hit-or-miss humor detracted from the overall experience. With more attention to these aspects and a deeper exploration of romance, the film could have reached its full potential.… Expand

This is a frank, illuminating and — most of all — funny glimpse into some of the challenges and intricacies laid at the feet of certain archetypes within the LGBT community, a realm of humankind that I know I'm nowhere near as well-versed on as I probably should be. At the end of the day, this is what movies are all about — learning about different experiences and kinds of conflict that the human condition can endure. In that, I found "Bros" to be not only entertaining, but interesting in its handling of certain matters and ways of life that I'm unfamiliar with. Again, though, the humor is the real selling point for me, with everything hinging quite steadily on Eichner's lead performance. A solid time at the theater overall.… Expand

I saw the movie last night. I watched a person get up and walk out because of the rant after rant of the main character.
Further, it is not a comedy. There is only about 3 minutes of comedy in the entire movie. It does show a reflection of how many people I've met in bars rant about the unfairness of the older days. The main character is insecure and lashes out at everyone. The days he rants about most are in the past for most now in the 20's and 30's. Especially the teens. I would doubt this movie will be in the theatres any longer than the contract to show it requires. Certainly doubt it will make its production costs back.

"Bros" was a cute and serviceable rom-com film: While the movie isn’t anything I would call “groundbreaking,” it manages to set out and accomplish what it was aiming to do… Be a good, first gay romantic comedy from a major studio. I can feel there was a good faith effort to be as inclusive as possible with as much LGBTQ+ representation as possible and every joke was handled very thoughtfully and with care. All of the running gags about Hallmark Christmas films where amazing and I kind of wish some of them would become actual movies!

Billy Eichner was hilarious and a surprisingly good singer and Luke Macfarlane might have been a bit TOO charming! The supporting cast was incredible as well, everybody brought a bit of something to the table to make this move as funny as it was.

If I were to make a slight nitpick on "Bros," I did notice a lot of obvious dub overs before cuts when characters were speaking. All-in-all, “Bros” was a fun watch and a great film to watch in theaters with friends. 7/10… Expand

Some characters are so stereotyped to the extent that it's borderline insulting. It's ok that main character is a LGBTQ activist, but it's not ok every minute this guy is trying to lecture people (audience). This relentless push to be politically correct made the movie lack basic humanity. I don't think somebody so obsessed with being gay (we need to be reminded practically every minute) is capable of falling in love. Certainly felt like it was written and directed by people devoid of any basic understanding of cinema art. Frankly those people should not be in movie business.

Who knows why relationships work or fail? That’s especially true when it comes to gay male partnerships, which often come and go like the wind and whose permanence or fleeting nature frequently rests on the unlikeliest of considerations. ButWho knows why relationships work or fail? That’s especially true when it comes to gay male partnerships, which often come and go like the wind and whose permanence or fleeting nature frequently rests on the unlikeliest of considerations. But sometimes they somehow manage to survive, despite their conundrums, quirkiness and seemingly deceptive dysfunctionality. Such is the case in director Nicholas Stoller’s brilliant new romantic comedy about a pair of apparently mismatched partners who wade their way through the murky, uncharted waters of same-sex romance, a sort of gay male version of "Annie Hall" (1977). In some ways, this picture employs an adapted version of a rather tried-and-true formula of boy-gets-boy/boy-loses-boy/boy-gets-boy-back-after-a-series-of-extracurricular-flings, an approach that has earned the film its share of criticism. However, given the ways in which that basic narrative is dressed up with snappy, often-hilarious writing, ample situational and sight gags, and just the right amount of heart-tugging, inspirational drama (without becoming schmaltzy or overly preachy), the picture generally succeeds across the board. Virtually all of the humor is positively spot-on, and it’s served up in an easily relatable way such that one need not be a card-carrying member of the LGBTQ+ community to grasp the jokes. The film also features an array of appearances by gay and gay-friendly icons like Harvey Fierstein, Debra Messing and Kristin Chenoweth, a variety of cameo appearances by big name Hollywood stars, and a host of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender performers. It’s also worth noting that the film’s principal producer/distributor, Universal Pictures, deserves a hearty round of applause for taking a chance on material like this. Indeed, the backing of a romantic comedy involving alternative lifestyles by a mainstream studio is truly groundbreaking in the movie industry, and, considering the critical success that this release has already garnered, this savvy move by a major player opens the door to greenlighting future projects of a similar nature, a rich vein of material that’s just waiting to be mined and finally has a shot of making it to the big screen. Sensitive viewers should be aware that there is some explicit sexual content in this release, but, considering the comic nature of much of it, it’s hard to envision not evoking laughs from even the most conservative audience members. Given how well this offering succeeds on so many fronts, it would be a shame if it were to be overlooked come awards season, especially when it comes to its writing. It’s refreshing to see a film that finally knocks it out of the park this year – and this truly is the one to have done it.… Expand

Very bad movie. I really enjoyed broke back mountain and the birdcage. Despite what the director says I'm not a weird straight person who's homophobic. This is just a trash movie.

He plays a New York podcaster who's happyMuch has been made of this first gay rom-com from a major studio, but the results don't live up to the hype. It stars comic Billy Eichner, who's pretty much playing his usual caustic, neurotic self. He plays a New York podcaster who's happy with his carefree life until he meets an interested hunk (Luke Macfarlane).Their relationship develops on traditional lines, including the rough breakup before the final kiss. Fans of Eichner might find this enjoyable, but a little of his manic personality can go a long way. Macfarlane succeeds in being hot and charming. The film also makes a point of showcasing contemporary queer culture (sex included) and there are some famous folks mostly wasted in cameos. Being that Eichner co-wrote, his autobiographical rants and political tirades drag the film's spirit and pace. There are a few funny moments, but overall it's a spirited, but unoriginal romance.… Expand

The problem with this movie is Billy Eichner casting himself as one of the two main characters. Otherwise, as a forty year old gay man, the film isn't that bad.

Had fun with this typically structured rom com, the middle did seem to really drag and kinda do nothing for like 0 minutes but other than that it was very well made with some good laughs.

Evidentemente às vezes a mistura atrapalha o andamento da história, focada em dois homens brancos cis, mas como o filme tem plena consciência disso, é gostoso de acompanhar, especialmente porque o que não é malhado (sim, aqui ao menos o roteiro teve certa dignidade), lembra os trejeitos de um Woody Allen na versão gay, com os maneirismos típicos, até mesmo os excessos de petulância. O roteiro também sabe da posição de classe de ambos e da idade fora dos padrões para uma comunidade que supervaloriza a jovialidade.
Assim, com montagens eficientes sobre pegação no Grindr, embora o leque de referências estejam ali, tudo não passa de um romance leve e bobo, bem clichê, a respeito de dois caras que pretendem largar a vida de solteiro para tentar algo mais profundo, por mais que ambos digam não estarem apegados.
Chega a ser decepcionante ver acontecer típicas cenas dos filmes de romance, como romances, quebras de expectativas, desilusões, até o movimento redentor. E por mais que a tentativa de inclusão exista, o roteiro estigmatizou todos o demais elementos que não os personagens principais, servido mais como nota de rodapé.
Mas ao menos as atuações e sintonias estão afiadas, e há um discurso ligeiro conversando com a atual geração e não apenas isso, mas um alerta para a importância de se preservar a memória queer (um deles trabalha num museu), o que conferiu pontos positivos a todo esse emaranhado de lugares comuns.
Enfim, por se tratar de personagens gays e bem construídos (os personagens principais), acredito que vale a pena o esforço para assistir sem esperar muito em troca, claro.… Expand

Some issues gettingFun romantic comedy highlighted by a great performance by Billy Eichner. This is a classic Rom-Com but also holds some additional emotional weight and incredible insight into our LGBTQIA+ communities in our modern world. Some issues getting the story moving in the beginning but once the the narrative smoothes it's a very enjoyable time, with multiple laugh really hard out loud moments. Independent of Eichner, acting left a bit to be desired but this movie makes you feel good and is an awesome effort and platform, with lots of beautiful monologues with an added sense of vulnerability.
