... from an indie auteur of questionable vision, Jared Hess hits screens. “Gentleman Broncos” is Hess’ followup to his big-studio debut “Nacho Libre ,” of course that film made possible by the success of the little movie that could “Napoleon Dynamite .” ‘Dynamite’ wasn’t the worst film in the world, but it was cloying and condescending and the trailer for this one looks even worse. We’re not rushing out to see this one, so we’ll let the reviews speak for themselves. The movie is 14% fresh at RT and has a Metacritic ...

... Yes, it's true. We've been hard on Jared Hess ' " Gentleman Broncos ," cause it just looks... not like our thing... and right now it's sitting at a rather poor 12% score on Rotten Tomatoes so maybe our prejudging distaste for the silly looking film is very justified (though our reviewer, who didn't love it, ...

It doesn't work so well when your movie is a stinker, which is exactly what Fox Searchlight seems to have learned with Gentlemen Broncos . It opened in two theaters last weekend and earned a merely-OK $5,751 per-theater average. But with the reviews scathing and a wider release unlikely to bring in new fans, Searchlight has apparently decided ...
GENTLEMEN BRONCOS Limited Release Shrinking As We Speak

... Grad was dumped in the doldrums of August, while Whip It failed to find a crowd in October.
Cut to now: Amelia has been effectively neutered as a ready-made Oscar contender, while Gentlemen Broncos (from the director of Napoleon Dynamite, which did particularly well for the same studio) is being pulled from wider release after this weekend after posting modest numbers on two screens and earning savage reviews for the most part.
With Miramax also facing tough times, it's a shame to ...
