Step Brothers
could be the stupidest film this year, and yet I'd be lying if
I told you the movie didn't make me laugh.
As much as I wanted to hate this movie
outright, I can't all the way.
It's a shame, because the simple concept
of a pair of 40-year-olds living like 12-year-olds could be some
really funny stuff.
My warning for you is there's more four-letter
words than there is laughs, so just for the laughs: scissors
sideways. |
It's adolescent humor in an adult vein
as Step Brothers uses crude, rude, and downright dirty
humor to convince us that it is a comedy.
Although it has some laugh-out-loud funny
moments, its pacing makes it come off more like a series of T.V.
skits rather than a full-blown big-screen production.
But like most comedies, it really depends
on your mood. |
Step Brothers
is an adult arrested development comedy about two 40-year-old
characters who are little boys trapped in men's bodies.
Mentally and emotionally they are both
goofed up, and that's pretty much the whole movie -- two grown
men acting like mischievous, vulgar kids.
The idea is amusing, but after 95 minutes
of rude, crude, and profane humor, these two childish and foolish
characters becoming annoying, in my view. |
