Waiting for this to drop on a streamer? Not gonna happen. But we’ll be screening it under our “Valentine’s at the Cinema” program for 3 dates with no cuts. A rom com that mixes smarts with smut, packed with slapstick gags, spot-on spoofs, wry meta-commentary, zingy one-liners and zany pop-culture in-jokes. It’s pretty much the strongest entry in the Judd Apatow extended universe since “Bridesmaids”. So what happens when a cranky podcaster cum director of NYC’s first LGBTQ museum lock eyes with a hunky party boy who’s an estate lawyer by day? Meet cute: Check. Will-they-or-won’t-they shenanigans: Also check. Extravagant romantic gesture at the climax (of the movie, that is): HUGE CHECK. It’s like “Love, Simon” meets “Sex and the City” (the TV series, not the movies, and definitely not And Just Like That), only better. But more than the laughs and the raunchy action, this one’s got its heart in the right place. “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.” - The Atlantic “Billy Eichner’s performance endows this romantic comedy with energy that overflows its conventional contours… [He] unleashes a whirlwind of sharp dialogue with careful attention to the urgency and the pain underlying it.” - The New Yorker “Heartfelt, slick and crafted with such careful comedic care that a good deal of jokes will inevitably be drowned out by audiences still laughing over punchlines that came just before.” - The Globe and Mail BROS (R21) Valentine’s at the Cinema | 3 screenings only Fri 3 Feb, 8pm | Sat 11 Feb, 8.30pm | Sun 19 Feb, 5pm Book your tickets on our website now #theprojectorsg https://theprojector.sg/films-and-events/bros/
