BrosMovie - co-written by and starring billyeichner - is hilarious, sexy, charming, and one of the best rom-coms in quite some time. Our TIFF22 review:
In Bros, the history of rom-coms permeates this story of two men who struggle with commitment issues falling for each other. Bobby Lieber talks with a guy on Grindr about how the app is kind of like You’ve Got Mail . There are several references throughout to When Harry Met Sally… and there’s even a party to celebrate the launch of a new app called Zellweger, which is for guys who just want to meet up, talk about celebrities, then fall asleep.
While Bros has sort of been marketed as an almost satire of rom-coms, Bros is decidedly a fairly straight-forward rom-com, but as Bobby says early on, gay romance isn’t the same as straight romance. Love is love is love is actually bullshit, and Bros does a great job of showing how queer relationships can be fundamentally different from the heteronormative relationships we see in the movies.
Bros also seems to know its own importance as the first gay rom-com from a major studio and uses that as a way to slyly explore the history of LGBTQ+ in its own way via the museum. Stoller and Eichner drop in all sorts of details about the important moments and figure in queer history, but in a way that always manages to be entertaining or narratively important.
