Zany and funny

I get that it might not be everyone's cup of tea but my wife and I found it laugh out loud funny!

Underrated

Seeing this was released in 2009 my first thought was, "Oh yeah, there WAS a follow up to 'Napoleon Dynamite'... wasn't it not that good?" Now I'm watching it in 2024 and it's better than 'Asteroid City', so either entertainment was so good in 2009 that 'Gentlemen Broncos' was considered "mid", or entertainment for the last decade has lowered the bar to where 'Gentlemen Broncos' is now comparatively "good". Regardless of how we got here, I'm enjoying it now.Jared Hess certainly continues the weirdness in this one. 'Napoleon Dynamite' pioneered the art of bludgeoning the audience with awkward character actors, which he does again here. The first time I saw ND I couldn't find the humor through the cringe, and it took multiple watches to appreciate. GB is much less grounded in reality and more absurdist slapstick than ND, which imho makes it more accessible to a general audience.I like the characters, the actors, and the story, but some of the characters lean a little too hard into their stereotypes to where they lose some believability, and the believability of the characters was a strength of Napoleon. Great cast, sets & props, music, cinematography, lighting, etc.Saying 'Gentlemen Broncos' was "ahead of its time" implies it does something profound, which it doesn't; but it was ahead of its time in the sense that if it came out today it would probably receive more praise than it did in 2009.As a fan of Breen, Wiseau, DeCoteau, Nguyen, MST3K, Rifftrax, EFAP, etc, I appreciate the bad films.
