English II
Step-Brothers
Two men, one is 39-years-old and the other is 40-years-old. They are very creative and comical in the most unusual ways. Yet, they still live with their parents. Fate has brought the mom of the 39-year-old, Brennan with the dad of the 49-year-old Dale. What was least expected is now happening, they will be step-brothers.
When they first meet, they show great resentment towards each other. From yelling at each other to tackling each other through the house, they can’t seem to get along. After a big fiasco in the front yard between Brennan and Dale, involving golf clubs, they literally got beat into being friends. From there on out they go to job interviews together, do karate in the garage, and create their own amateur entertainment group. All go’s great until the parents split up and are forced to fend for themselves. Brennan takes a job at his brother’s apache business and Dale works for a catering company. When Brennan holds an apache rendezvous and hires the catering company that Dale works for, the parents meet and decide to get back together. What was most dreaded at the beginning is no more; they will be step-brothers once again, this time for good.
The star actors in this movie are Will Ferrell as Brennan and John C. Reilly as Dale. As an American comedian, actor, voice actor, and writer, he has been very successful. Making his way through Saturday Night Live and from there having acted in 10 movies, he has officially made his mark in today’s entertainment as one of the best. On the other hand, John C. Reilly is an Academy Award winner, Grammy winner, and two time Golden-Globe nominee as an American Actor. He has acted in 14 movies all given four stars or above. They are considered “the best in the business” by many critics and citizens. Their skill and attitude during the movie helped them make the movie the funniest in America according to half the critics who reviewed the movie.
In terms of my overall enjoyment, this movie was more than enough to make me laugh. The cast of characters made it all the better along with the storyline. Being one of my favourite actors, Will Ferrell did an amazing job to keep the movie hilarious. After watching this film, it became my favourite comedy movie. I give this movie a 5-star review for its acting and storyline.
