That’s how The Bronze opens, so it’s as good a place as any to start a review of The Bronze. How you feel about that opening shot is probably a pretty good indication of how you’ll feel about the film as a wholeโit certainly does set the tone. The Bronze is good old-fashioned shock comedy, set in and around the world of professional gymnastics, helmed by a defiantly unlikeable protagonist who does lots of things that chipper little blonde girls aren’t supposed to doโthe aforementioned diddling; lines of pain medicine; anonymous drunken sex with strangers; soda that isn’t diet.
