About this movie

Frank (John Pollono), Swaino (Jon Bernthal) and Packie (Shea Whigham) are lifelong friends who share a love of the Red Sox, rowdy bars and Frank's teenaged daughter Crystal (Ciara Bravo). But when Frank invites his pals to a whiskey-fueled evening and asks them to do a favor on behalf of the brash young woman they all adore, events spin wildly out of control. Based on Pollono's award-winning play, Small Engine Repair is a pitch-black comedic drama with a wicked twist, and a powerful exploration of brotherhood, class struggle and toxic masculinity.

Ratings and reviews

I loved the trailer, looked like it was going to be a great movie, right up until the end when they just HAD to throw in the "story about toxic masculinity" tag line. It could be the best movie in the world, but I'll never watch it. I get that most entertainment industry people are way left of center but they should really leave their religion out of their films. People just want to be entertained without having idiotic dogma shoved down there throats.

Any movie that uses toxic masculinity in the description is obviously trash especially when the movie centers around a young woman using her lady parts to manipulate men into doing her bidding which is super hypocritical smh screw these out of touch idiots also figures all positive reviews are from women lmao

Slow burn...great acting... But my hometown of Manchester New Hampshire is nothing nothing like those people. Well, maybe a few of them but every city has them
