Something Borrowed, Something Bronze: “The Bronze”

For shame Rotten Tomatoes…12%? You must be watching too many negative political stories. Sure The Bronze is totally inappropriate at times, but it’s that Bad Santa wrong that pays off so well in the end.

Written by the lead actress and her husband (Melissa Rauch and the hubby that took her last name, Winston Rauch) and directed by advertising film director Bryan Buckley.

Melissa’s acting was hysterical, yet I couldn’t help feel sorry that Gary Cole got stuck in the boring dad role, similarly to how I felt about Bill Hader in Trainwreck. As for directing, Buckley does a terrific job with a hysterical, yet oddly arousing sex scene between two former gymnasts. You’ll not only laugh at the absurdity, but also think, “Hmm, looks fun.” Rarely can you say that about a slapstick comedy.

Mark my words, The Bronze will be a film that carries, like a slow burn that gathers a cult following.
