376 - Bros

We wanted to like Bros more. Co-writer and star Billy Eichner jumped at the chance to expand the boundaries of the wide-release Hollywood rom-com to tell the story of a gay romance and give representation to people who are usually marginalised, if included at all, in mainstream comedy, and whose inclusion is often at their expense. It's a shame, then, that it's dull, uncreative, flat, comedically unimaginative and unskilled, and preachy. What a colossal waste of an opportunity. Recorded on 30th October 2022.
