Bromance

Bromance tries to deliver an entertaining mix of drama, comedy, and action, but despite a promising start, it loses steam midway, leaving the audience disengaged.

The film initially hooks viewers with an interesting setup, but as the story unfolds, the pacing slows down significantly, making it a dull experience. Mathews' performance, instead of adding depth, often feels exaggerated, bordering on overacting, which makes certain scenes unintentionally cringeworthy. The supporting cast does a passable job, but no one truly stands out. The saving grace, to some extent, is actor Shajon, who brings some energy with his character. A few comedic moments land well, but overall, the film struggles to maintain engagement.

On the technical front, the editing is decent but lacks finesse, while the music is forgettable, adding nothing extraordinary to the experience. In the end, 2025 Bromance is a one-time watch at best, more suited for a casual home viewing rather than a trip to the theatre.

Let's break this down like an equation: (BROMANCE - Mathew Thomas) + anyone else = a watchable flick

Congratulations to Mathew Thomas-you've officially delivered one of the worst performances by any working actor in recent times. Seriously, it's baffling how you've made it through so many films with such consistently subpar acting.

That said, if you can survive the first 20-25 minutes, the movie actually becomes enjoyable. The humor clicks, the comedy is light-hearted, and it works as a no-brainer entertainer with some decent laughs. The songs didn't do much for me, and while the background score was passable, Govind Vasantha seemed like a shadow of his former self. The Gen-Z and the Vloggers are trolled completely all over the movie was a good part.

Performance-wise, this film belongs entirely to Sangeeth Prathap-he nailed every scene he was in. Arjun Ashokan was okay overall, but in the second half, his performance edged dangerously close to irritating-just a notch above Mathew Thomas. Shajon, with his Don Lee-style mimicry, was fun to watch and delivered good comedic timing. Bharath Bopanna looked the part and played Ashish convincingly. Shyam Mohan didn't have much to do, but he served his role well. Mahima looked beautiful and was okay with her role.

All in all, despite the drag caused by Mathew Thomas, Bromance still worked for me and turned out to be a fun ride.

Rating: 5.5/10.

The story revolves around two brothers, with a mix of action and comedy. While the fight scene was decent and watchable, the comedy felt forced-almost as if the filmmakers were desperately trying to make the audience laugh, but it simply didn't work. While I noticed some kids in the theater enjoying it, for me, the humor just didn't work. One of the biggest drawbacks was the overacting by several actors, especially Mathew, whose performance felt exaggerated and unnatural. Instead of immersing viewers in the story, the over-the-top acting made some scenes feel awkward. Overall, it's a watchable film, but not worth a theater visit-better suited for an OTT release.

Bromance is a good entertainer with an engaging storyline. Arjun Ashokan, Mathew Thomas, Sangeeth Prathap, Kalabhavan Shajon, and the entire cast performed their roles fabulously. The makers used some famous social media references, placing and presenting them very neatly. Most of the comedy worked well, making the film enjoyable for the audience. The technical aspects of the movie are superb, enhancing the overall experience. Overall, it is a great fun ride,decent, fun, and entertaining movie, mainly targeted youth. The second half works well, and Sangeeth's comedy timing adds a lot of laughs. The plot is simple, but the movie is still enjoyable and keeps you entertained.

Rating - 3.5/5

A clean action fun suspense entertainer with eccentric performances.

The story takes us through the lives of two brothers and erratic events that takes shape on their hunt for finding the missing brother forms the storyline.

ADJ as always has given a promising entertainer with funny moments. Good writing by ADJ,Thomas and Raveeshnath giving some humorous moments and Bromance through the movie with relatable dialogues and witty characters. The filmmakers has mixed friendship,bromance,love,betrayal,action and family emotions in the movie that could be well related by anyone.

Good performances by Mathew,Arjun Ashokan,Sangeetha Prathap & Mahima Nambiar. The placement of Bharath Bopanna as the antagonist was a brilliant move and served the purpose.

Akhil George has captured the movie maintaining the pace of the movie & Chaman Chakko has trimmed the story to a fun filled entertainer.👍🏻Good music and BGM's by Govind Vasantha kept the vibe,mood and suspense of the story alive.

A good fun to watch entertainer ride on weekend with friends and family.
