Step Brothers

Another Will Ferrell movie. Lots of laughs. Lots of quotable jokes. Who cares about the story?

Actually, STEP BROTHERS wasn't as good as his other stuff, but I kinda enjoyed it nonetheless. I've always liked Will Ferrell for some reason. My lovely wife hates him. She surprisingly liked this movie though.

Step Brothers is about these late thirty-year-old losers who both live with their parents and end up becoming step brothers 'cause their parents hook up and ooof on a whim. The predictable comedy ensues because now instead of just one loser living at home, both are living at home sharing a room together. They basically act like kids and argue like brothers would, except, of course, it's supposed to be funnier 'cause they're older.

Some parts are really silly. Other parts are hilarious. Mostly because they say childish things with adult language. Will Ferrell just has a way of saying things that always makes me laugh and think that he's pretty clever underneath all that silliness. I like him better than Ben Stiller.

I like when you watch the special features on the DVD and they show them ad-libbing the same scene twenty times saying different things off the top of their heads. That's when you get to see their true comedic genius. Where do they come up with some of this stuff?

This is a movie to watch to lighten the mood a bit. I wouldn't say that it's especially good, but it wasn't too bad either. Again, my wife seemed to like it and she hates Will Ferrell. I kinda felt like I was watching PEE-WEE'S BIG ADVENTURE except that there were two Pee-wee's and none of them were whacking off in the middle of a theater...
