Tudo Por um Bar

I feel like the events and key moments for this film weren't well planned or executed. There were some surprising scenes once in a while, but there just wasn't enough excitement in them and when there was, it quickly faded out. On one minute I was happy that something happened and then the next minute it gets taken away. Kinda upsetting.

A few songs in between scenes would have made a huge difference, but instead there were waaay too many silent scenes that weren't even interesting. A good soundtrack would have set the tone for the film and given more emotion to it.

It's a pitty though, cause the plot seemed kinda fun and most actors are great. It just really lacks some action and more interesting characters. For a comedy movie, there should really be some funny/happy scenes. I didn't come close to laughing once.

It was not my choice to watch this movie, my poor sweet, not cinematically-choosy, boyfriend selected it. I was on-board at first solely due to my love and professional respect for Rachel Bloom and Melissa Fumero. However, the more time I spent "watching" (better said, "enduring") this film, the sadder I felt for these two underrated talents. They should not be agreeing to such genuinely trivial, D-List projects that are so beneath their talents. Albeit you don't every day book a "Brooklyn 99" or "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" as those were needles in the hay stacks; however, standards should have been set. There was not a single original thought or line throughout this entire film. I also never once even had a silly chuckle. It was a completely sub-par, novice, straight to streaming film that nobody really should waste their time on. There are better bad films out there to pass the time on.

Um yeah ok, 18 minutes in this became stupid officially. This movie doesn't soar but it tries to. Rachel Bloom has become massively oversized since that show about the Crazy Ex-Girl Friend. You can tell it's going to be a chore to watch. Here's what you do. You just either turn up to the bar whenever you want, or you don't. It's pretty simple. Since he found the bar it should be his and as a lawyer she should acknowledge that fact. Anyway back to the "review". The movie is what it is. It's light hearted. It tries to be quirky and different. It could be enjoyable in the right light of day. The biggest issue is that is starts out with a breakup in which nobody fights. So we're in fantasy land right off the bat. And there just isn't enough material to have a whole movie based on who gets a bar. Also the black guy has the most weird haircut. It's just plain stupid looking hair. Ultimately the thing about this film is that it's a breakup movie and that's never something to get excited about. It's a downer of a film and I'm calling it a 3/10.

This has got to be one of the most boring "comedies" I've seen in a long time. The jokes, what few there were, were lame. The chemistry between the characters was nonexistent. This might have made an ok 30 minute TV show, but there is no way it should have ever been made into a full, feature-length film. As a matter of fact, the whole issue with "whose bar it is" could have been solved really simply if they'd both just ignored each other or even just stayed on opposite ends.

What there two ever saw in each other in the first place - the whole, overdone overweight, frumpy, "every-man" scores beautiful, out-of-his-league girl notwithstanding - they have nothing at all in common. That they broke up without even a single cross word between them... yeah. No. Then you bring in the girl's best-friend. She has got to be the most annoying, obnoxious, crass person alive. Again... nothing in common between her and Melissa (the main girl), either.

Of course, the required reading was there... both the main guy and the best friend's husband are portrayed as the perfect "house husbands" - within the first five minutes, Melissa literally says that exact thing about Luka, her ex-boyfriend. When Luka tells the annoying best friend that she is, in fact, mean, she cuts him off and asks if he's going to call her "opinionated," "bold," "overbearing" because of course, he's sexist. When Melissa is walking back to her car, Luka asks her if she wants him to walk with her - you know, as a gentleman to make sure that she gets there safely - she looks at him in disgust and declares "sexist!" practically spitting the word out of her mouth.

Do yourself a favor and skip this. Not even the big names (relatively speaking) could save this dumpster fire.

This film lacks good acting performances, humour and wit. Personally I cant find anything good to say about this film - maybe the colour palette of the whole film was quite pleasant. The main ex-couple had no chemistry, most of the jokes repeat themselves, side characters and their lines are annoying and extremely unnatural and the story is quite predictable. The whole film felt super staged and more like an episode of a sitcom. And eventhough I like Melissa Fumero in Brooklyn 99, this role just didn´t suit her. I must admit I struggled to get to the end of "Bar Fight", eventhough the runtime is quite short.
