Overview
Brennan Huff and Dale Doback might be grown men. But that doesn't stop them from living at home and turning into jealous, competitive stepbrothers when their single parents marry. Brennan's constant competition with Dale strains his mom's marriage to Dale's dad, leaving everyone to wonder whether they'll ever see eye to eye.
So imagine you and a buddy wanted to make a film. You’ve only got a day so you loosely plan on some scenarios that on the surface sound mildly amusing. No script or anything – you just assume that when you get into the scene that magic will just start happening. Ladies and gents, I give you Stepbrothers. What an abysmal waste of talent. And when I mean “talent” I am talking about Richard Jenkins, Mary Steenburgen, Adam Scott and Kathryn Hahn. This movie was an absolute embarrassment. The film consists of one hacky scene after another (does it get more hacky than the sleepwalking scenes?). I thought it was even less funny than Eurovision – at least that movie had some kind of emotional core to it so that the viewer had something to latch onto. This movie was so bad that the scenes after the credits are actually worse than the scenes in the movie. Yes, THAT bad.
