I've mentioned recently about a potential backlash towards Will Ferrell, as the guy just wasn't putting out the same quality of stuff we'd grown accustomed to. Blades of Glory and Semi-Pro were far cries from his work in Anchorman and Old School, and even Talledega Nights. But with Step Brothers, Will Ferrell returns to form. And then some.
It's not perfect, but I don't remember laughing this much at a movie in the theatres in a long time. There's gross out humor, random humor, action humor, and subtle humor. If you want to laugh for 90 minutes and feel like you've got your money's worth, this movie will do the trick.
I was misled a bit by the previews, as this turned out to be a very vulgar movie. That being said, it was refreshing to see Will Ferrell in an R rated role, and his chemistry with John C. Reilly was once again a stroke of brillance. These two should be making movies together for years to come.
So that's my recommendation, go see Step Brothers.
