Bros (2022)

Bros (2022). Bros: Directed by Nicholas Stoller. With Billy Eichner, Luke Macfarlane, Guy Branum, Miss Lawrence. Two men with commitment problems attempt a relationship.

“A little while into this movie I realized it was a gay version of u0026quot;Annie Hall.u0026quot; Nerdy Jewish guy whou0026#39;s always going on about things meets attractive (gorgeous in this case) but a bit personally awkward goy guy with whom he has an on and off relationship. Opposites attract, lots of fumbling, New York surroundings, very awkward dinners with friends and handsome guyu0026#39;s family where nerdy guy goes over the top being politically gay. (Thinking of Annieu0026#39;s stolid WASP family seeing Alvie as a Hasidic Jew during Thanksgiving.) I may be being to harsh but Billy Eichner, like Woody Allen write the movie so gave himself the lead. Weu0026#39;ll, that said, I enjoyed most of the film. Some very funny moments that send up over-sensitive blocs in the lgbtq community, some sharp writing, fun cameos by Debra Messing, Bowen Yang, and Harvey Fierstein, and the easy on the eyes Luke Macfarlane, plus a steamy yet funny sex scene (with actors chastely still wearing their boxers and no sign of arousal) put this in the fun movie category. Iu0026#39;d have appreciated less Eicher bitching about everything and more character development but on the whole a funny and entertaining movie with a full roster of actors of all backgrounds. I donu0026#39;t get the title, though; seems to point in another direction.”
