Sly, funny parody of boy band groups.
pebsdad22 February 2000
Not bad for a tv movie. The movie is a funny look at putting together a pop boy band. Funny bits include preparing answers for press interviews (and the implications of every type of answer), choosing members for their "type", rehearsing in different costumes and the mocking, silly lyrics to the songs. Good job MTV.

2gether... a surprise of a TV movie!
TheDvDFan22 February 2000
MTV's first made for television movie "2gether" is a pleasant suprise. Spoofing all the recent boy bands in real life, "2gether" takes a mix of "Wag the Dog" and "This Is Spinal Tap" to present the film. The plot is creative (by using the "boyband" approach) and the acting is pretty good by a bunch of nobodies (the best acting comes from Kevin P. Farley, who plays older brother Doug Linus). The directing is a minus for this film, using too many music video "styles" for this film. Nigel Dick needs to stay at what he's good at, directing music videos. Overall, if you want to see a film that's entertaining watch "2gether," it will give a good time to 82 minutes of your life.

Fun little TV Movie!
brettdeath8 January 2022
2gether is a fun little flick about an up-and-coming boyband and their hurdles on the way to stardom. The film may not excel in the writing or acting department but the interesting premise helps the film become something new! I also like the 2000s asthetic that the film has, I get nostalgia when I see / watch films from the early 2000s and this film definitely gave me nostalgia!

my rating of 2gether
chs_lnd6 August 2005
My daughter and I were recovering from my fiancée and her future step-dad being murdered when we came across this movie by mistake one night.We watched it the first night it aired,taped it the second time and have watched many, MANY times since.It was the first real laugh we had since losing Eric.So we will always love these guys and this movie.If you haven't seen the movie and have no desire, that's OK.Just search for their video"Breaking up is hard enough" and you'll get hooked too.We were disappointed when they broke up but it was impossible to replace Qt.Wherever Chad,Mickey,Jerry,Doug and Bob are now,they should know how important they have been to us.And I want to say thanks.We now have 3 copies of the movie and know pretty much every line.

Great movie!!
AprilMeeks9 June 2000
This movie is *very* funny. MTV did an awesome job with this movie. There's an awesome cast. Noah Bastian plays 'Chad Linus' the 'Shy One', Alex Solowitz plays 'Mickey Parke' the 'Bad Boy', Evan Farmer plays 'Jerry O'Keefe' the 'Hearthrob', Michael Cuccione plays 'Jason "QT" McKnight' the 'Dewey Eyed Youngster', and Kevin Farley (brother of the late Chris Farley) plays 'Doug Linus'(Chad's older brother) the 'Older Brother Type'. This movie is very, very funny. And yes, there WILL be a tv series based on the movie (this has been confirmed by Noah Bastian a.k.a. Chad). The soundtrack to the movie is also great. Oh, and FYI the cast is recording a *2nd* album/soundtrack (whatever you want to call it). Also, they will be opening up for Britney Spears at some of her August concerts. Anyway, the movie is great,.... so, if you like to laugh you gotta see this!

This movie is a *buttload* of laughs.... LOL 10/10 A+++

A terrific parody of today's ever popular boy bands.
frankien21 February 2000
I liked this movie. It didn't have much aesthetic value but it did prove to amuse myself and my roommates for about 90 minutes. I especially liked Nigel Dick directing the film, since he is one of the better known directors of today's pop music videos. Who better to direct a movie about a pop group than a pop video director? My thumbs up to MTV for yet another delightful movie masterpiece.

Hilarious!!!
natreddotrot8 September 2007
Well, I don't know about that other person, but I thought it was awesome! The fact that it was a spoof about boy bands and how each band had each of a certain type of boy in it. The cute guy, the shy guy, the older guy, the young guy and the sick guy. This particular spoof boy band that was put together even sounded great! I loved the fact that they actually did go out and hold concerts for charities. It was so sad that the one character in the show that was sick, was actually sick in real life, and ended up passing away during the T.V. series. Such a terrible thing! But I give this movie a thumbs up! It's a bit of silliness with some funny music and undertones.

best made for tv movie ever!
MichaelCorleone200215 August 2003
when i first saw 2gether, i wasn't all that impressed, some cute kids, funny songs, but other than that i didn't really like it. but then i re-watched it w/ one of my friends, and we fell in love with this movie. it's one of those movies that the more you watch it, the more scenes and dialogue are more appealing to you. very funny stuff -i can't be perfect every time out, i'm not ozzy osbourne! -doug

Witless and Un-intelligent
Reeves-25 March 2000
Very bad. It seems to me that anything MTV puts out is regarded as genius and original, why? The fact of the matter is this movie is far from it. It's witless, boring, and a very poor attempt at satire. It doesn't do a good job of mocking, it's very ho-hum, and has very weak, annoying characters. The only funny, creative thing in the whole movie was the young hearthrob's name, Jason Q.T. McKnight, now that's funny, but a 30 year old balding, boy band member...C'Mon. A satire is best when it's more realistic. This movie tries to hard, and winds up laps behind the finish line when it comes to satrical comedy, but finishes a strong first when it comes to shock humor, or maybe a photo finish along with American Pie. Take lessons from Kevin Smith and Tim Robbins...MTV

Outstanding display of hilarious humor!
Wrestlimania200017 April 2001
2gether was a wonderful movie made by MTV! It is by far the BEST movie they have ever made. It made me literally laugh my a** of at some points, and cry at others. I don't know anyone who didn't LOVE this movie. Mickey Parke doing all sorts of outrageous things and acting like the biggest poser ever was so funny. I suggest anyone who hasn't seen this movie to SEE IT and anyone who loved this movie like me to watch the series on MTV Mondays at 10:00 PM!!

Funny, but seriously lacking
JBoze3136 October 2000
The movie overall is pretty well put together, which is shocking, seeing as how MTV productions has absolutely no production value to speak of most of the time. The movie is cast really well, with a group of new actors, who are both talented and funny. It's pretty funny in general, but where exactly is the plot? I mean, I was hoping for something more in the way of storyline here, but that was clearly never gonna happen. The series based on the movie has the same problem. They come up with a very simple plot and wrap a few funny scenes, and even more pointless scenes around it. The filmmakers here definitely needed to add a lot to the plot, especially for the time it ran. If you like parodies of the annoying boy bands we are constantly assaulted by, check the movie out. Like I said, it has it's funny parts, but overall it just doesn't hit the mark quite well enough.

2Ge+her is the ultimate boy band movie! It works!
Pat19733 July 2000
Virtualy an unknown cast but it's fun and very energetic. It's about 5 guys that make up the ultimate boy band. These guys can really sing and dance with the best of them. Now they are no *N Sync or The Backstreet Boys but the singing is just as good. I know that this cast of characters can sing and dance. Evan Farmer is a very good singer and it's just pure fun and a very cool movie! Giv it a chance. It'son MTV all the time. I even even heard that there is going to be a T.V. series on MTV. Now I told you guys theses guys are talented1 I'll be watching an tapeing every episode! Out of 4 stars I gve it 3 1/2 stars!

2gether ROCKS!
funnyNflirty886 June 2005
when i first saw 2gether i thought it was hilarious. my friend had taped it and brought it to my house and we watched it and i thought and still think its my FAVORITE movie of all time, however she taped over it on accident and so neither of us can watch it, i look on ebay ALL THE TIME FOR IT, but it is SO expensive! i don't have $70-100 dollars for a movie, a used movie! however someday i hope to get it because the cast is AWESOME and the songs are awesome.. i still sing the songs all the time! i wish the TV show was still on MTV, especially in the summer time when all they do is play the SAME shows over and over and over again.. HELLO play 2gether for a day!

4 Everyone
nyrangerguy10 March 2000
Being a 17 year old male, I wasn't really going to give this movie much of a shot, but it really did satisfy my need for laughter. The whole concept is so far-fetched, which is what some movie critics criticize, but that's why I think it works. It would be awesome if something like that could actually happen. Maybe I'll audition for 2gether 2. There's definitely room for (4?) a sequel, and I'd definitely watch. A 10 in my book. This would be hard to top.

great movie
nickcarterlover8622 April 2000
i am a boy band fanatic and i love the backstreet boys. only them and no one else, until 2gether came along. i had seen the commercials and thought it looked good. i watched the movie and saw that there was a lot of talent in it and that nigel dick made good choices for a cast. the cast was very good looking (especially chad), and they had put a lot of effort into this movie. i thought that overall the movie was a great parody of all the boy bands out there today. i have the 2gether movie on tape and my best friend has the soundtrack and we watch the movie every week. now if that doesn't tell you my opinon on the movie, i don't know what will

MTV: Shitty Channel with Amazing Movies
plezbo6 September 2004
I was a highschool freshman, the first ever made-for-TV MTV movie was being premiered, was there any doubt that I was going to watch it even though it was about a boyband? No, not at all. While I figured it would be terrible, I watched it anyway, mostly because I was in that 15 year old tool stage where I still cared what girls thought, instead of just ruffying them.

I was GREATLY surprised. This movie knocked me off of my feet. From the hilarious songs, to Kevin Farley as a member of the band, I laughed the entire time. If you have never seen it, I pity you, as it does not look as though MTV will ever release it to DVD. Your best bet? Go buy the two CD's (one from the Movie, one from the Series) and listen until your CD player explodes.

Is this the best movie ever? Quite possibly so.

Funny Script + Good Actors = Funny Movie
jmcool51648 August 2000
Warning: Spoilers
SPOILERS AHEAD! Very funny movie! The script is very well-written, the songs are catchy (A bit TOO catchy), and the actors do pretty good, even though most are complete unknowns. Boy-bands really need a good spoofing and Saturday Night Live has done that too, with a fake band "Seven Degrees Celsius". This movie spoofs it, while pleasing boy-band haters and not offending boy-band lovers.

2Gether is the story about the formation of a boy-band. Bob Buss (Alan Blummenfeld) has just gotten fired from his job with the hottest boy-band "Whoa!" and hears Jerry O'Keef (Evan Farmer, who was an extra in Shaft) and decides he should use him. Then he finds Chad (Noah Bastian) and Doug (Kevin Farley, brother of Chris). Then he finds Mickey (Alex Solowitz) and then Q.T. (Michael Cuccione). All the while, they talk to the camera since this is a "Mock-umentary"

Bob has a rule for every celebrity ("My John Travolta rule: You go up and you go down") and is very funny. Kevin Farley could have a huge future, just like his brother Chris. Now all they need is a spoof of singing Valley Girls (Brittany Spears, I'm looking at you) ***1/2 out of ****

2gether + Me = Fun!
theresaus25 February 2000
I loved this movie! I have never been a big fan of boy bands, but when I saw the commercial for 2gether, I had to watch it! It looked so hilarious. This movie showed everything that is true about boy bands. My favorite was Chad. He was so funny and is the best singer of the group. Noah Bastian plays the dim-witted cutie so well! I had to buy the soundtrack, all the songs are great and funny, even Track 3 which is also so gross. I 3 2GEtHER!

I loved it! It was well written and performed. 2gether is by far the funniest movie I have ever seen. The guys are great actors, and singers. Also, that Noah Bastian is a major cutie. I think everyone should watch the movie, and get the cd too.

The Best movie!
iam2gethersgirl17 June 2000
I personally thought 2gether was the best movie ever! I loved it so much. Michale was doing especially well! I love you! It was well done and could be enjoyed by everyone! If you didn't like boybands, well they were making fun of them. If you do like boybands well they were one! It was well made and they were HOT!

I can watch this movie over and over again. Not only did I enjoy the singing and dancing, the characters were genuinely funny and then scenario was believeable. I believe this is the best made for TV movie I've ever seen. I hope they put it on DVD.

Chad aka Noah is a hottie!
starlette55523 February 2000
I thought 2Gether was hilarious! Although I do like boy bands and it kinda makes fun of them...It was very entertaining. And I think the actors are very talented b/c not only did they have to act, but they had to sing and dance as well! They did not lip sync as you would know if you watched to pre-show for 2Gether on MTV! And one more thing...I think Noah Bastian who plays Chad Linus in the movie is a major hottie! If you like the movie I suggest you buy the soundtrack b/c it is so hilarious and worth the money! I love u Noah!

Surprisingly Funny For An MTV Production
Shantanu15 April 2000
Usually when MTV tries to be funny, it comes off as being perverted, cliched, and/or 3rd-gradish. Thankfully, 2gether is none of that. This movie is a very funny tale about a bunch of unlikely guys who try to fulfill their dreams of being part of a successful boy band.

In short, the movie is an absolute riot. It satirizes the boy bands, but avoids becoming too mean or sarcastic.

You'll love it.

The funniest movie off all time!!!!
Pardepookada4 May 2002
2gether is the funniest spoof of boy bands today. Alex, Michael, Kevin, Even and the hottie Noah can act, sing, dance and give out this vibe of coolness. I love watching the show that follows them to the top. 2gether has all the right components. A tough guy, Alex. The cutie with an amazing voice, Michael. The horny, lovable clown, Kevin. The classic soap opera hot, Even. And the adorable shy and vulnerable, Noah. I'm deeply sad about Michaels passing and hope that the other members can keep up 2gether without him, although it will be hard. Miss you, love you. --Rebecca

MTV did a great job and so did the cast!
CourtneyRaye25 February 2000
2gether was a really funny movie! My sister taped it! Q.T. and Chad are hot! the movie is very funny and I think everyone should watch it whether they like boy bands or not, either way you should find it funny! Keep in mind it is supposed to be kinda corny! Jerry is trying to keep his girlfriend and be a teen idol, Chad is shy and really wants a Ski do, Doug ( Chad's older brother ) is supposed to be the older brother of the group, Mickey P just wants to win a fight, and Q.T. has a disease ( Brian Litrell? yeah I think so too ) and he is obsessed with girls! Well I don't want to tell you the whole movie but watch it and find out for yourself! MTV did a great job and so did the cast!
