Gentlemen Broncos Review: Bucked Off

GENTLEMEN BRONCOS: Released on DVD from Monday 3rd May

Some directors are able to create a unique cinematic style that can not only satisfy them as an artist but earn them mainstream success.

Husband and wife filmmaking team Jared and Jerusha Hess are not these directors. After their fleeting success with Napoleon Dynamite, audiences soon realised that it was a one-off and the pair could only create work of a similar ilk but dissimilar quality, resulting in Nacho Libre and now Gentlemen Broncos (which will not even get a cinematic release but go straight to DVD).

Michael Angarano plays Benjamin Purvis, a home-schooled aspiring sci-fi writer who’s living in relative poverty with his wannabe fashion designer mother, Judith (Jennifer Coolidge). Do It!
