Step Brothers

Step Brothers

source: Step Brothers

Step Brothers follows the same path as the other McKay-Ferrel collaborations: a fast and strong start in a good first half, dynamic, funny and captivating. Then the movie runs out of steam in its second part, with overlong passages and a script that becomes messy and sometimes even boring. The only difference here is that this heterogeneity is a bit less noticeable, maybe because the movie is not as long as other ones like Talladega Nights for example which felt very long. Still, the movie is enjoyable as usual, with crazy characters and a dumb, absurd humour that does the job. Ferrell and Reilly are good like always.

I Just got back from the midnight showing of Step Brothers. It is freaking HILARIOUS. I seriously laughed so hard that I almost passed out during the part will Farrel sings for his "step brother". Not a quiet moment in the theater. I never thought I would find another movie that could get more laughs out of me than Superbad, but this movie definitely did it. Don't even think about passing this up, you'll regret it. The movies contains some male and female nudity so use discretion when deciding to bring a younger audience. Phenomenal movie! Will Farrel brings the performance of a lifetime with co-star John C. Reilly.

This is a dumb movie for dumb people like me. And I will continue to chant boats and hoes till the day I die.

John c. Reilly, Will Ferrell, Mary Steenbergen star in this story by Adam McKay. When Jenkins marries Steenbergen she brings Will Ferrell with her. Reilly is also there and the two step brothers bond. The sleepwalking wreaks havoc. The boat crashed and the martiage breaks up. The brothers get jobs. They want their parents back together. Will Ferrell is naturally extremly funny. Reilly is also fun. The film made me laugh.

Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly come together for a great combo in this movie. It's hilarious. It's weird and odd in its own way. And it has its light of seriousness and reality too. But the humor is the sunlight of the movie with the other making up the shade. My favorite scene was the job interview they had with Pam. Classic.

This movie had potential, but the script just didn't deliver. Instead of being clever and genuinely funny, it is dumb and lacking laughs. In many ways, it's a movie that you'd expect to find from the 80s, and even looked and felt like one. Sadly, whereas an 80s version would most probably have been funnier and less crude, this modern comedy fails to deliver anything truly memorable. I have the feeling that the writers tried to copy 80s style humour, but are so locked into the modern 'shock value' mindset, that the whole project ended up being a waste of time and talent. Will Ferrell is a funny, talented guy, but he obviously can't find scripts that do him justice. He needs to stop embracing lame, crude ideas, and make some genuinely funny movies that people with a reasonable degree of intelligence can laugh at and enjoy.

Man - I love this movie. It is literally the right amount of funny and very quotable. The scary thing is the manchildness being depicted in this film is getting more and more common. I can not say enough about this film and yet, almost as a solute to the film itself, I am too lazy to even finis

super random funny moments in this movie. The greater good of humanity shines through, and no matter what age ,you can still get your act together. however for those who condone absolute stupidity, don't watch this movie. it's hilarious to a certain point, at which point there is no possible way a 40 year old acts the way the step brothers do. my friend was laughing the whole way through...its not as funny as some of the movies out there...such as the 40 -year old virgin. Okay, how can you compare the two movies? There is no easy answer to that. Except that the two main characters of this movie are the same age as the guy in 40-year old virgin. Some of the funniest quotes in this movie...and some of the random things that happen (in a completely insane world)...man you just got to love yourself at times in this movie. GOOD ENTERTAINMENT!!!
