I first saw this movie in theaters when it came out and I laughed from the beginning to the end to the short part at the end of the credits.  Was the movie stupid? yes. Was it juvenile? yes. Was it laugh until your cheeks hurt hilarious? yes.

I usually find Will Ferrell’s movies pretty funny the first time and then they start to grow on me more and more as I begin to appreciate the humor he is going for with each film. With this one, I found it to be hilarious from the start. Watching it on DVD was even better since I was able to catch alot of the jokes I missed from everyone cracking up in the theater.  While I understand his humor may not appeal to everyone, there is enough funny stuff in this movie to get a laugh out of even the most hardened Ferrell critics.  While the movie wasn’t exactly innovative, it did accomplish its mission of being insanely funny. Without giving too much away, it also happens to feature one of the best and funniest ending fight scenes ever.

Perhaps one of the best indicators of a good comedy is how quotable the movie is. How many lines you can bust out from the movie that not only people who are familiar with the movie will find funny, but those who didn’t may laugh also. Step Brothers has quotes up the ying yang. There has been a recent boom in hilarious”R” rated comedies coming out in the past few years and Step Brothers definitely keeps this trend moving in the right direction. Fans of comedy should definitely check this one out.
