Step Brothers
BetaMax Crap - Plant
This is a film where two what 50 year olds and looking it, play 40 year olds acting 14 years old ….what the f'. This isn't a film where you just suspend your disbelief, here you make a noose find a high beam and string your belief up high holding on tight until it stops kicking! What a terrible movie. What credit crunch…..when there are moron's willing and able to sign off on finance for something like this. I'm telling you this should never ever have gotten near a cinema screen! It should have went straight to BetaMax then into the bargain box at a garage sale in a lane down the back of no-where! Its drivel. Two infantile moronic baffons become half brothers when their parents marry, half wits is more like it. They of course wreck the house sleep walking, hate and squabble and fight each other and become friends in the end of course, wreck the father boat and along with it the marriage. The fight over a drum set and there is a bean scene like from Something about Mary that isn't anything as funny, you just know it will be done.. Go from being friend to hating each other then of course back to friends. There is the common ground of hating a brother who is mega successful and then go on to become mega successful themselves. They of course go to therapy get jobs and become successful. Something I hope this movie doesn't otherwise we will get the same drivel again and again. This movie is like something you and your mate might make while drunk and goofing around and then only watch several years later while again intoxicated. Unbelievable completely unbelievable!
