Too much of everything
One of the best films i have seen
It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
I have three favourite films of all time, they are as follows, in ranking order;Step Brothers, Schindler's list, Gandhi.I need not say anymore.
Yeah, I'm not going to lie: my inner 12 year-old loves this movie. Or at least parts of it. Whenever Will Ferrell and John C Reilly are at war, it sends me into a fit of giggles - and totally feels like they'd ad-libbed half this stuff. It's when these scenes are awkwardly melded into the overall family story that the humor starts to go flat; despite the cast involved. That said, Rob Riggle steals every one of his scenes. And Reilly's random "Boats and hoes!" outbursts has been in my head for ten years now. It's so lovably dumb.
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
So I have seen this film many times over the years from the first time I watched it with my dad I must have seen it roughly 100-150 times in the last 9 years and I can tell you it has aged well. The film is one of my all time favorites and it has me in stitches every time I watch. This type of comedy relies on just childish stupidity and naivety in 40-year-olds and is so ironic it is just so hilarious. The way Will Ferrell and Adam Mckay made this film it keeps you constantly laughing through out and just keeps the jokes coming. There are none of the long pauses to add context to the story, whilst keeping the context of the story with many short and unbearably hilarious breaks from the main skits. This is one of the reasons the film is always laughable and cannot be beaten in my book. Through out the main sequences, the use of ironic humour is constant and even though at some points slightly over used it is inescapable and funny as hell. This is due to a number of awkward scenes, such as when the entire family are eating dinner for the first time and the two go back and forth with immature and petty insults like "I remember when I had my first beer". this line said at dinner whilst Will (Brennan) is sipping on blue gator aid like a small child and then when met with a retaliation from John (Dale) proceeds to wail and cry. That is just one example of the Immature and hilarious moments in this film and give the audience an easy laugh by making them feel superior to the morons on screen. This, I believe is why the film has been so successful and why it is a classic, in my opinion, this is one of the best comedy films ever. I would write more, but this is my first review and I wanted to keep it rather short and concise. If you haven't seen the film I highly suggest it and if you have, watch it again. thanks for reading hope you enjoyed it. C_S_S_D
