Bromates (2022)
3/10
Barely Funny

Warning: Spoilers
I saw Bromates, starring Josh Brener-What Men Want, The Internship; Lil Rel Howery-Free Guy, Rel_tv; Jessica Lowe-Wrecked_tv, Blended; Asif Ali-WandaVision_tv, Wrecked_tv and Brendan Scannell-Bonding_tv, Heathers_tv.

This is a comedy that is barely funny. The cast is okay but the story and the jokes are just dumb. Josh and Lil are best friends-since childhood-that have a big life disappointment at the same time; their girlfriends break up with them. Jessica is Josh's girlfriend that is really into social media a lot-she is always taking selfies and posting them-but she runs off with a neighbor that is a puppeteer. After the breakup, Lil decides that he and Josh should move in together as bromates-roommates that are bros. Asif and Brendan try to console their brokenhearted buddies at a Karaoke bar, which leads to a redneck festival in Amarillo, Texas-where more unfunny stuff happens. There are a few cameos. I remember seeing Rob Riggle, Snoop Dogg and Marls Gibbs-I think Snoop was a producer, which explains a lot.

It's rated R for language, drug use and sexual content-no nudity-and has a running time of 1 hour & 38 minutes.

It's not one that I would buy on DVD. I wouldn't rent it either. Heck, I don't even think I would watch it on tv but if you have a different sense of humor than I do, you might want to watch it on tv.
