I had the pleasure of viewing Broke at its premiere in Chicago, and I must say, it was everything that you want in a comedy. It had a great storyline, believable characters, and most of all, it was genuinely funny. It wasn't over the top or trying too hard, it was just funny because it was real. Everything these guys went through is definitely something I could relate to and that made it even more enjoyable. Broke is def one of those comedies you want in your collection because it has a timeless quality to it; you can go back and watch it anytime. Living in Chicago, I'd heard about this movie way before it came out, so the anticipation was set-in hard. When it finally premiered, I was not disappointed.

I wish I had four hands so I could give it four thumbs way way up!!
