Like its predecessor, Gentlemen Broncos is funnier in retrospect. The film itself is a bit hard to watch, dragging out the most uncomfortable sequences and characters to a point that is almost nauseating. It’s certainly quotable, and I will certainly quote it. And it wasn’t bad- Pure seventies camp in the best possible ways, right down to the awkward framing and pastel everything. But I don’t think I need to see it again. I don’t think my stomach could take seeing it again.

The acting is, of course, superb. Sam Rockwell gives an outstanding preformance as Bronco/Brutus, and the ensemble cast that fleshes out the rest of the film is committed to a point that makes one question their sanity. The lack of shame always gets me- there are some things that I could never do and that I find it difficult to watch someone else do, even when I know that person is getting paid. It just feels… dirty.

Anyhow, if you are less sensitive than I am to such things, I’m sure that this is the film for you. It was certainly worth seeing the once.
