Step Brothers is unashamedly dumb, unoriginal and downright offensively childish. But aren't these the very same reasons why people like these movies?July 25, 2008
There's a good subject for satire here, the extended adolescence of American kids. But satire presupposes maturity, or at least some perspective.December 24, 2009
You know you're in trouble when the cleverest parts of your movie are the ironic T-shirts, worn unironically ... (but) a bonus is deserved by the person who dug up the Pablo Cruise shirt.December 19, 2010
Foul-mouthed Ferrell comedy isn't very funny. No kids.October 18, 2008
Unremittingly juvenile and irredeemably funny.February 01, 2009
Step Brothers is a rowdy, rambunctious, fitful, against-the-wall comedy. Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly, and director writer Adam McKay heave comedy, like spaghetti, against the wall. About half sticks; the other half makes a real mess.August 29, 2008
Despite some obvious flaws, 'Step Brothers' remains a hugely enjoyable, well-constructed slice of lowbrow Saturday night entertainment, leaving Ferrell's position as the reigning king of US comedy secure for a while longer.October 21, 2014
You only needed one look at the poster for Step Brothers to know exactly what this film would be like.October 18, 2008
On its own terms, Step Brothers is hilarious. But it's a shame that the filmmakers didn't have more faith in the audience. Why resort to gross-out tactics when your premise is strong enough to allow for a more sophisticated approach?July 14, 2011
McKay and co. manage to pull off a strangely heart-warming finale.
