Fantastic Fest Video Review: Gentlemen Broncos
Jared Hess' new film Gentlemen Broncos was the opening night film at Fantastic Fest 2009 in Austin Texas. I attended the premiere at the downtown Paramount theatre. I was hoping to leave two hours later quoting lines and laughing with friends, like I did five years earlier with Hess' debut film Napoleon Dynamite. I really wanted to love this film, but ended up only mildly liking it. Sure, my expectations were high, but the film was very uneven with a only a few minor moments of brilliance. I recorded a video blog with Scott from WeAreMovieGeeks and Alex from FirstShowing talking about the film. Watch the video review/discussion after the jump.
