Bros (I) (2022)

A Waste of Luke Macfarlane

[2/10 · 21 October 2022]

Thank god people didn't see this at the theaters. It's AWFUL. Billy Eichner's character is horrible & completely unlikable. The script is godawful. Maybe this is what big city gay life is like, but none of the gay people I have ever met (including friends in NYC) live like this. This movie is like if Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen decided to write a movie about gay people. While stoned. And never met a gay man in their entire lives.

I love Luke Macfarlane as an actor and I had such high hopes for this movie. What a waste.

The supporting cast was great and Debra Messing's cameo was perfection. Hollywood, please don't judge Luke Macfarlane by this movie.

Wine Country (2019)

Take A Nap Instead

[3/10 · 12 May 2019]

This movie couldn't possibly be more boring if it tried. Nothing happens, there's no actual storyline. It seems like a group of friends sitting around writing a first draft of a movie they want to make. The entire thing is a plotless, pointless, boring, unrelated batch of scenes Frankensteined together. What a waste of the time and talents of a great cast. Sorry, Amy; this goes in the "Fail" column.
