  Review by single white femalien 9

  ok a single divorced bald father of two being a member of a brand new freshly assembled boy band is pretty funny like watching pre-plugs aj bald in the bsb video where theyre vampires but for a whole movie! i was scared this would be a sneering boy band parody but...... it isn't, not really! i got for real sad when i learned the youngest actually died at 16 from cancer which made the joke where reporter asking how long he has to live just uh depressing considering he didn't survive???? calculus is funny but also i would and will listen to it on purpose in the future as i explore my latest adult boy band cycle

  Part of what makes pop music awesome is that it doesn't give a fuck, it is unabashedly pimping itself out to you and attempting to manipulate you and there are billions of people that are willing to say yes, including myself on some occasions.

  This movie started a fictional band, that then actually had hit records and a TV show that I bought and watched, just like the Monkees, or Victorious, or Big Time Rush, or a ton of other shit. This movie cynically mocks the boy band craze, its fans, and those…

  “What the world needs now... is boy bands.”

  God, I love my nostalgic millennial gay agenda pop culture childhood.

  Review by Nacho Klahn ★★★★★

  "Say some girl picks up a copy of the magazine and she reads that both Jerry's and QT's favorite color is blue. Her favorite color is green, but nobody in 2gether likes green, ergo nobody in 2gether likes her, ergo she has no personality, no taste, she's worse than nothing, she's a waste of human flesh"

  Best. Scene. Ever.
  Definitely an unknown, underrated movie

  scavenger hunt 100: a film recommended by a stranger.
  2023 summer of trash: a spoof/parody movie.

  Painfully 2000s in some aspects, but overall a funny spoof mockumentary about a rising boy band. All of the actors did a great job portraying their characters and had natural chemistry so the band element felt realistic.

  Definitely could have done more with the comedy and plot, as even with an 80 minute runtime things dragged quite a bit in the middle. It also would have been nice to hear more songs than just the same two they sang over and over but they sounded like actual tunes a 2000s boy band would put out. It also would have been fun to see more scenes of the group being put together and learning the ropes.

  Still enjoyed it for the most part though, and might have to check out the TV show since I can see this concept working really well in that format.

  Nigel Dick directed the greatest work of art of the 20th century, and also this gentle boyband parody.

  "We make out anyway"
  "...Or I'll be a youth pastor"
  "Taffy!"

  Quotable as hell, neat little gem of a comedy, which serves as a time capsule of the Y2K aesthetic. Absolutely loveable and with better acting than American Beauty.

  When it first came out, I genuinely thought they were a real band and loved the movie and the original songs. Eighteen years later, I still love the movie. I generally enjoy parody films and that definitely includes this one. It's still really funny.

  Review by Wormy ★★★½ 3

  I'm coming to the startling conclusion that the amount of movies that outlandishly represent the 00's aesthetic choices is far less than the 80's, 90's and even the 10's.... and that's MY decade! wth. Please... recommend me as much as you can. I want a decent list to get going... But all in all, at least there's this movie, which is probably the purest and most distilled exemplar of the oughties. Not just in the music and clothes, but the made-for-tv-teen-movie language... it was like someone hearing their home language in a crowd 1000's of miles away from home. So besides all that, this movie has a mystifying effect... It drifts between earnest tween drama and slapstick parody at a…
