Bromates

From the music score and also comedic level of entertaining our entrusting moments of heart. This really reminded me that we can still bring comedy to so many things. For example picking on each character with ought being rude or predictable. I'm gay. The gay character happening to be hilarious but not in the form of a straight predominately male movie. All of it was hilarious. I enjoyed every bit. Mr. Lil Rell was amazing. The main actor held his so well. The entire cast was so damn good. I really enjoyed this!! I will also say it has a message of. How to get over someone. But the bigger message is how to have close friends around you no matter where they come from. Just embrace the support system you have. It's important.

The movie opened with all the new age tech cliché lifestyles and all new world problems. Terrible cringe comedy. The plot is very boring. I feel like they tried to make this funny by throwing Snoop Dog in and the old pot skit, but it was very redundant, I feel like I saw this in an another movie. Comedy is tasteless, the characters are pitiful. I wanted to turn in off so many times. The characters are so boring.

This is all I wanted to say but I have to write out all of the characters I guess.

So here are all of the characters filled out for you and I still hate this movie with passion. Don't waste your time.

My expectations for Bromates were admittedly low (somewhat non-existent) and typically, that would afford a movie a few extra stars. I assumed it would follow the same formula as movies like Oldschool, The Hangover, or The 40 Year Old Virgin - you know, bro-comedies. Frankly, if Bromates had half the charm of one of the second rate movies of that genre (ie Neighbors) - I would have gone about my business and had no reason to write a review.

That said, I found the writing to be so formulaic, so lackluster, so void of any original characters, situations, relationships, hardships, etc that I felt compelled to write on it. I laughed zero times. I predicted all the punchlines. I found the friendships to be so unbelievable that it distracted from any potentially funny interactions.

In DVD form, you'd find this movie in the bargain-bin at Walgreens between a copy of Free Willy 2 and a box of Mike and Ike's that someone discarded right before checkout. The writers should have to pay to have their names expunged from the IMDB page.

Pushover Sid (Josh Brener) gets dumped by his social influencer girlfriend. His friend Jonesie (Lil Rel Howery) invites him to be roommates, or more than roommates. He wants them to be Bromates.

In theory, these two comedic actors should fit well together. One is a weak pushover and the other is an outrageous adventurer. Lil Rel is a matter of taste and I don't always like his characters. This one is more unlike than like. I don't really understand all the hot ladies going for Sid. I don't care about the other two friends although the gay one is almost funny. This should have been Harold and Kumar if the two leads would go on a meaningless adventure.

There was a few funny scenes here and there so I won't say it was all terrible. The cast did a good job with terrible writing and production.... Even the set designs were very bad. Other than that the storyline was all over the place and seemed like there was no real flow. Although the cameos were cool they seemed odd and forced. The characters just had no fit in the story at all. The acting was not as bad as the writing but it wasn't great either. It was on par for other B movies in this genre. Overall it's worth watching if you have nothing else to watch and if you can get thru it once I guarantee you will never speak or think of this movie ever again.
