Editorial Reviews:
|
Brennan Huff, a sporadically employed thirty-nine-year-old who lives with his mother, Nancy. Dale Doback, a terminally unemployed forty-year-old who lives with his father, Robert. When Robert and Nancy marry and move in together, Brennan and Dale are forced to live with each other as step brothers. As their narcissism and downright aggressive laziness threaten to tear the family apart, these two middle-aged, immature, overgrown boys will orchestrate an insane, elaborate plan to bring their parents back together. To pull it off, they must form an unlikely bond that maybe, just maybe, will finally get them out of the house.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Absurd yet hilarious!
Comment: Don't let all the negative reviews scare you off. If you are looking for an intelligent film then don't watch this movie. If you feel the need for immature and brainless entertainment then look no further.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Step Bros
Comment: It's very funny, but somewhat crude - not something I would watch with my mother or with small children, but exactly what you expect from Reilly and Ferrell. The bloopers reel is a must-watch!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Horrible from Start to Finish
Comment: What was this, I could not believe how dumb and immature this movie was. I would not recommend it to anyone.
Customer Rating:
Summary: movie purchase
Comment: I got it for my grandson & he was excited to get it I'm sure he loved it as it was something on his list.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Ferrell's movies are like a sugary energy drink
Comment: Will Ferrell is a funny guy. I wouldn't kick him outta bed for eating crackers(HUH?).
Okay, scratch that comment. But when watching any of his movies, you will often get a warm, fuzzy feeling in your brain(and your loins).
Uhhh, I meant to say there is often a mild rush of euphoria as you watch his childish tirades, uncouth mannerisms, and misplaced arrogance.
It gets to the point where you wish you could get down his pants(sheesh!)
Errr, I mean at some point your attention span inevitably starts to crash.
Ferrell and Reilly play the characters they should be in real life--two stupid, lazy, unemployed 40-yr-olds mooching off their parents.
Much of the humor here rides solely on the use of profantity. A cluster of F-bombs is fun and all, but it gets redundant. Plus it gets old. And repetitive.
But this does have some genuine laughable moments. Like when the step bros become best friends and pee together(and cross streams), look at nudy mags, or watch Steven Seagal movies. Funny stuff.
But their antics often get extremely childish and unbelievable. Plus, size matters! This gets too lengthy for comfort, and its only 98 minutes long. Plus I hate how nearly all comedies lately feel the need for a detached, preposterous climax that eludes any sense of logic.
All-in-all not a total waste of time, especially for the ignorant masses who will most likely squeal in exuberant delight. 2.5 stars.
