Movie night with Iris.

An unintentionally hilarious documentary on the band reunion. The 80s story is mildly interesting, but the David Brent analogies and psycho-babble are hilarious.

If anyone has seen Popstar with Andy Samberg they'll know what I'm saying. This is like that movie, mixed with David Brent: Life on the Road - literally the same scenes here as when David Brent's band sit there shaking their heads behind them. If they are really not laying it on thick, Matt Goss is entirely traumatised by just breathing. He's like Peter Vincent from Fright Night, living in his tower in Las Vegas and as fragile as wet paper. Luke Goss thank the lord has Shirley Lewis as a wife, so at least one foot on the ground, and he has some self-respect and a sense of humor. Both are talented, clearly, but still have no confidence despite their success, and that lack of confidence has made them completely unformed as men. They still call themselves boys because that's what they are at 50. The drum fill scene is the best laugh I've had in ages. Luke is just cut down in a barrage of nonsense and then somehow ends up apologising to Matt. You couldn't write the psycho speech Matt comes up with, it's genius. Second, the scene in which Matt is babbling about drawing an elephant on his face with his beard. Completely barmy. Luke, run for them hills, do another movie and leave your mad brother to it! Although he probably already did that, hence them going their own ways for 25 years. When Matt finally comes out as gay he'll probably feel a whole lot better. It's so obvious.

I am not a Bros fan I am a movie and music fan, I see so many 10 ratings of this documentary by Brosettes its obvious that this has been overrated, but not by much... Bros were a 80s band who had a female support much like Take That had in the 90s while Bros were an 80s band. There were three members, two brothers and another member who is missing from this documentary. The band had some success and like most of the teen bands of the time, split up and the brothers went their separate ways. One continued as a musician while the other made a name for himself as a B grade Hollywood actor. This documentary focuses on the two brothers preparation of a come back concert over 20 years after they split up. Since then its obvious that they have serious problems getting along and they have spent time apart mainly due to the brotherly hate which arises whenever they are in the same room. While this is a documentary about a band reforming its really about the relationship between the two brothers who seem to slip back into sibling rivalry and pick at each other like children, despite them now being well into their 40s. They seem at times completely unable to stop themselves slipping back into a cycle of conflict which seems to arrive out of nowhere and threatens to derail the comeback concert. Stuck in the middle of this conflict are support band members and management who have no idea where to look of how to manage the situation. At times the viewer is left feeling very uncomfortable with whats on screen due the sheer rawness of the emotions on display. This is a very warts and all documentary, little is left to the imagination and this is no vanity project. Its not all arguments however, there is humour and some of it is even on purpose. Some of the musings of the Goss brothers are simply laugh out funny and its difficult to tell their level of self awareness. It has elements of Spinal Tap except this is for real. The documentary also covers the losses the brothers have experienced and these scenes are very emotional. In all this documentary covers every emotional range and is very engaging, you neither need to know who Bros were or be a fan of their music to enjoy this. I can recommend this to most people, although their fans apparently have been re-watching this over and again. You will certainly want to watch this at least once as its one of the best documentaries of 2018.
