Bro's Before Ho's

A Dutch comedy? It's an insult even for weirdos! If you are looking towards watching a real enjoyable and clever comedy, don't wast your time watching this abomination. The only reason why it received reasonable ratings is because of the lead girl, Sylvia Hoeks.

A fresh and funny comedy from the Netherlands, describing a bunch of people turning 30 (some more fortunate, some much less), all in the wake of American movies like most Western young people actually are.

The movie is nice because is full of energy and juvenile enthusiasm: it shows that being young and sexually uninhibited does not necessarily mean that you are also able to cope with more serious matters such as love, life or commitment.

Plot is predictable, however it's a comedy: honestly if it were not for the Dutch language I would not have been able to tell it from an American movie of the same genre.

I was intrigued by this because of the poster at first, but then I found out that it wasn't in English. I was disappointed but I decided to give it a shot anyway.

I was thoroughly amused by this film. You can tell that the writers/directors grew up in the 80s, with all the references to 80s films (especially at the end) and also NES stuff.

Yes, the humour is crude and politically incorrect and features a lot of the language you'd find in a gangsta rap song, but nothing really worse than your average crude American comedy a la American Pie or any number of Seth Rogen films. If you don't mind that (and don't mind reading subtitles) then you will be entertained.

The main actress is also very charming, and she gives of a very cute/naughty vibe, but they kept her grounded and attainable, which helps guys relate to the main character that likes her.

In the end, this isn't a classic, but it's quite entertaining, and has a bit of a soft spot too. I think if they made an English version of this, it could do quite well - especially with the right director like Adam Mckay or Rawson Thurber. In the end, I enjoyed it, even though I had to constantly dart my eyes down to see what they were saying.

I'd like to give it a 7.5/10, but since IMDb doesn't allow that I'm going with a 7, since it's not quite an 8/10.

I have watched "Bros before Hos" (2013) quite a lot, and with each rewatch, I find myself noticing something new. It's almost as if this film has the ability to change and evolve with each viewing, like a chameleon adapting to its surroundings. It's strange, because I've watched this film over 50 times and I know every line of dialogue and every beat of the story by heart, yet it still manages to surprise me.

It's almost as if, with each rewatch, I discover something new about the film that I never noticed before. The performances, for example, which I initially took for granted, now stand out as particularly impressive, with the cast bringing depth and nuance to their characters. The cinematography, which I had previously overlooked, now adds an extra layer of beauty to the film. Even the plot, which I thought I knew so well, now reveals new complexities and subtleties with each viewing.

It's amusing how a film can change and reveal itself in new ways, even after multiple viewings, and even though I know the movie by heart, each rewatch gives me a new perspective and a different experience. It's a strange feeling, but it's also a testament to the power and complexity of cinema, it can keep surprising you even when you think you know it all.

Let's be honest, first up it's weird to read an English review about a Dutch film, written by a Dutchman, but because it's an international site, so be it.

Second of all, if you want to go see this movie with your girlfriend/wife/whatever you call her, be sure she's not squeamish or easily offended. The humor is rude, blunt, politicly uncorrect and hilarious if you like/love that sort of sh*t. If you read the reviews by the professionals, the sex of the person is obvious; men get it, (most)women don't. Luckily my wife has a healthy sense of unhealthy humor.

When my wife and I watched it, during the end credits, as the people walked by, you could see the same thing you could have seen if you went to Magic Mike, only then with most of the women; they looked as if they were forced to be there, and were determined to not like it (btw, I liked Magic Mike, but not as much as this one).

One last thing, stay for the end credits, especially if you love action movies!
