StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

LouHomey From my favorite movies..

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

targe1314 This movie will appeal to fun loving dorks and geeks who grew up on sci fi pulp novels in the '70s.Mike Angarano brings his quirky character to bear as a young sci fi writer attending his first writing convention and listening to his author hero. His mom is nuts, as is her bf, and everyone else also.Jermaine Clement gives the stand-out role of his career as the neurotic, self-obsessed author 'Chevalier' giving writing lessons at the conference:"You can add ANUS to the end of any character name to make it special and exciting..." James. Jamesanus. George. GeorgeANUS. See how this works?"To top off the entertainment, the movie follows along with the character's original sci fi novel idea, showing it as it would have been made as a B movie. Enter the idea-less Chevalier who steals the young author's ideas for his next book, and you have hilarity ten- fold."Oh crap. Surveillance Does. I hate those things...."The only thing out of place in this movie is the title. 'Gentleman Broncos' is perhaps the most irellivant and out of place title ever given. A more appropriate name would be:"The Yeast Wars""Battle Deer 3000""Broncanus and the Deer Wars for Yeast"

Adrian Hallberg All the reviews that have negative opinions about this movie are just the ones that don't get it. Any director that has the original idea panda style, which is the case for this movie, should have some critical acclaim. Jared Hess made a great Job Making a fully original movie with original style themes ideas characters, and prospective. This is a independent Sundance where the movies I don't expect a Hollywood or big budget production I can understand how a lot of people might thanks this movie is stupid so it is for the few that have the unique sense of humor to get it. So in that case it won't be liked by everybody but I personally thought it was clever, funny, and had some great themes and overall a great story.

intelearts You will know within 2 minutes of watching this if you can watch all of it or not - it is anti-Hollywood, just about anti-indie, a brilliant take on boredom, eccentricity, makes unoriginality into hyper-originality and is generally like a 1930s freak show with a side order of banal.Seriously weird, and yet oddly familiar, the psychodramas and models of parenting and the wakwardness of friendships are all twisted in a maelstrom of ideas that just keep on coming. Every character is explored not for character but for something odd, find the oddness, in the face, the mannerisms etc; and its in their eccentricities that you find the story.However, behind all of the strangeness, there is consummate skill: the actors are all just on the line between satire and buffoonery and it all works brilliantly. This is a truly strange, odd, little film with Sci-Fi roots and strange strange buds. All I can say is plunge in - it is one of the stranger films out there - yet it has heart and humor, and many will recognize the nerdcore COS world it inhabits all too well - if off the wall is your cup of tea you can rest assured you have found the right stop...weirdly brilliant....

juli_mac I watched this with my 10 and 6 year old boys and we laughed the whole time. It's a ridiculous movie, with crazy, interesting and incredibly funny characters. Jennifer Coolidge is brilliant, as usual. Benjamin, the main character, is believable as a thoughtful, possibly gifted outsider amongst crazies. There are lots of fun shifts between the main plot line and Benjamin's created one, the story that was stolen. His story is shown via perfectly bad sci-fi movie scenes, complete with dialogue believably written by a teenage boy. We loved it - happened upon it and were glad we did. I saw a negative review for the movie and will say I thought it was MUCH funnier and better than Napolean Dynamite.
