Eichner is quick and funny, and Macfarlane is a strong leading man and a sensitive listener — with Eichner constantly deluging him with a torrent of words, Macfarlane would have to be. Audiences will become very fond of both long before the end of the picture.
Eichner and Stoller have written a film that plays to both of their strengths as storytellers, all while making one of the funniest and most romantic films of 2022.

Don't believe the negative reviews, its one of the best romantic comedy of this year, great casting with Luke and Billy everything was simply fun to watch good laugh and tears 2 hours went by very fast very enjoyable movie.

With so many firsts, a film might buckle under the avalanche of the accompanying expectations. Thankfully, Bros is so belly-achingly funny, sharply observant and wryly self-aware that it can more than withstand such a crushing weight.
So many rom-coms rely on tiresome plot twists to keep their characters apart before getting them together, but all of the ups and downs in Bros’ romance feel emotionally necessary.
For all Eichner’s intentions to make history with the movie, it’s at its best when it frees itself from representing anything more than two characters falling in love. That gives us more space to laud its pioneering work in putting awkward foursomes onscreen, anyway.
Its perpetual commentary on the mainstreaming of queerness remains at odds with its very desire to tell its story within the Hollywood system.
Bros lumbers when it should glide, lectures when it should joke. Wherever you fall on the Kinsey scale, you’ll probably find it a miserable experience.
I saw Bros 4 times at the movies. That’s how good this movie is. Bros is funny, sweet, intelligent and tender. It wasn’t a silly or generic rom-com, it was smart and well-produced. I would highly recommend this movie to everyone, not only to the LGBTQ+ community. Five-star all the way! Bros is an Instant Classic.

Had fun with this typically structured rom com, the middle did seem to really drag and kinda do nothing for like 0 minutes but other than that it was very well made with some good laughs.

The only good thing about this movie was the eye candy. Jesus, it has a greatest hits of ALL the worst stereotypes about **** men - promiscuous, superficial, poly nonsense, immaturity! The language and dialogue written wasn’t engaging but obnoxious to the inth degree. As a **** man, I thought this could be interesting and funny but « representation » isn’t always a good thing.
