"You have the voice of an angel. Your voice is like a combination of Fergie and Jesus." - Dale Doback to his new stepbrother Brennan Huff

Why watch this? This could easily be titled Dumb and Dumber... Again. And it's pretty darn good.

Plot Summary: Brennan and Dale, two 40-year-old immature, out-of-work losers, suddenly become stepbrothers when their single parents marry. They initially hate each other, of course, manifested in the most childish ways possible. Eventually, they become pals, chiefly because Dale stands up to Brennan's arrogant brother, Derek. Their new friendship does not, however, prevent additional disasters to the newly combined family.

Dad's Preview: From the same creative team and actors that gave us Talladega Nights (2006), we are served a second heaping helping of that style of comedic ass-holery. I, for one, really think these movies are a blast. Perhaps, it's witnessing grown men act like poorly behaved 10-year-old brats. I'm accustomed to Ferrell's child-like style, and I continue to be impressed by John C. Reilly - man, that guy really cracks me up - he portrays a moron like the nobody's business. That said, if you don't find this pair's antics to be hilarious, you might want to skip out on this flick.
