    SURPRISINGLY GOOD!!!

    I know what you were all thinking when you saw the trailer for Step Brothers, another Ferrell movie trying to squeeze out some comedy. But this wasn't that at all! It actually turned out to be a descent, laugh-out-loud comedy flick!

    I give Ferrell, Reilly, and McKay an A- for their story in this movie. It actually had some clever comedy in it, not just slapstick like we saw in Talledega or Semi-Pro.

    I give the acting a B+

    And i give a A- as well for the directing. Very well made and was put together almost perfectly!!

    Even though the comedy died down a little during the middle, It ended with a BANG!!

    ***Warning for all of those parents out there: There is lots of swearing and sexual humor in this film so please be careful!!!

    Overall...Great film for a good laugh!!!

    Go see it

    For those of you that love Anchorman... this is a movie for you. I enjoyed every minute, and had a bellyache from laughing so much.

    Why to people review "MAYOR" (the words Major dip-****!) comedies with such a serious tone. This movie is fun and that's all you need to know.

    Step Brothers

    The movie was one of the funniest I've seen in theaters in a while. The humor was childish, but can you expect from Will Ferrell. He's still good even though he's the same person in all of these movies. The movie was memorable, but not an epic movie obviously. Good for laughs, expect little and you'll get a bunch.

    Frieking HILARIOUS

    First of all, if you're not a Will fan, don't go see the movie.
    If you don't like stupid humor, don't go see the movie.
    If you're an idiot, don't go see the movie.

    IT IS HILARIOUS!!!

    Plain and simply, DON'T EXPECT an AWARD-WINNING SCRIPT. Too many people are b!tching about this movie being a disappointment. If you liked Superbad, or Knocked Up, or Anchorman, go see this ASAP. If your favorite comedy was The Birdcage (and many idiots who reviewed this movie - and disliked it - on this site probably loved that one), don't even bother seeing Step Brothers.

    This movie was the funniest movie I've seen in years . Do yourself a favor and buy a new pair of underware and see this movie. You'll need it by the time you leave. Will's greatest performance by far. Honestly, I was laughing from nearly start to finish.

    However, don't take kids to see it; there's too much vulgar language and nudity.

    Step-Brothers

    Okay, So I am a die-hard Ferrel fan, but even I can admit that is track record is getting rather smudgy, with a repeat of the same over the top lines and the intense fight scenes.
    Of course I laugh when he threatens to punch people in the back of the head, or in ball sack!
    I just do, It's funny. But, there comes a point when something new and fresh is needed. The plot to the movie was different from is line of sports related movies (ie talledega nights, blades of glory, semi-pro) And I will always feel that anchor man was the greatest movie ever made. Which is what I think my problem is, I am subconciously waiting for another anchor man, which to be honest won't happen! All in all it was a funny movie, I was a little overwhelmed by all the cursing, don't get me wrong I love the word F*&% as much as the next guy, I just want something fresh! The ending could have been better, a little predictable and rather annoying. But, go see it! I mean come on it's Will Ferrel!!

    Step Brothers Rules

    If you do not understand the effort it takes to create the finest low brow comedy possible you probably won't appreciate this movie. For those of us who get it this movie is the BEST COMEDY OF THE SUMMER!

    Step Brothers is now my #1 favorite movie surpassing Taladegga Nights, and Anchorman

    by

    Just go see it. I was laughing from start to finish. I know there are alot of critics that bash Will Ferrell all over these websites about how he shouldn't watch his movies, well they are pretty blind of Will Ferrell's humor, and Antics. Go and See it, its worth your money, and guaranteed a laugh!!!!!

    Funny Movie for Adults

    This is a very funny movie. Its more for adults than kids. You don't want to take your kids to see this movie. It has a lot of bad language, sexual content, although no sex in the movie. Just the content to what they do. But it was funny. Will and John had good chemistry between them in the movie. Its full of laughs. If your a fan of either one of these 2 actors, and you don't mind foul language, go see this movie. It is full of laughs.

    HILARIOUS!!!!

    by nashap

    OK whoever said this movie was not funny, has no sense of humor, or at least doesn't get this type of comedy. I read some of the reviews posted on this site before going to see the movie on opening night, and I was ALMOST scared to pay $10 to watch it. I AM SO GLAD I didn't listen to any of the negative reviews, because they are ALL wrong. This is one of Will Farrel's BEST movies!!! LOVED IT!!

    Will Ferrell's best in a while

    I was convinced to go see this by my teenage boys and it was very funny. From beginning to end it kept me laughing. If you liked Talladega Nights, this is better. These two guys are funny as heck and are the best team since Martin & Lewis. Go see it......but don't bring the young kids.

    Rated R for a Reason

    by Jadman

    Yes, it was vulgar. And no, children should not see this movie. But why would parents take their kids to see an R rated movie in the first place?

    Beyond that I laughed my butt off. You know the humor is going to be crude with this comedy duo so accept that going in and enjoy this guilty pleasure.

    Just don't take anyone that is easily embarrassed or someone you wouldn't want to be embarrassed in front of (like your kid, your mom or a first date). A great movie for guys night out.

    It's worth seeing if you're looking for mindless, summer fun and don't want to have to think for about 90 minutes.
