The Brothers Solomon

The Brothers Solomon (2007)
Seen on DVD 3rd Oct 2008

I was honestly expecting this movie to be quite crap, but it was surprisingly funny.

STORY: 4.5/7
John (Will Arnett) and Dean (Will Forte) are brothers who are, let's say, creepily close. After their father falls into a coma, they decide that they need to have a child so that he can have a grandchild before he dies. Unfortunately, neither of them have ANY luck with women, so they decide to find a surrogate mother.

ACTING: 5/7
Will Arnett is so fantastic to watch when he plays a brainless weirdo (Arrested Development, Blades of Glory and basically everything else he's ever in.) I'm not all too familiar with Will Forte but he was so funny! A special mention has to go to Kristen Wiig who was HILARIOUS as Janine.

One thing here before I give it it's overall score.
The openning credits for this movie were written in COMIC SANS!
what the heck is that about?
MOVIES shouldn't use comic sans.

OVERALL: 6/7

This movie was so much better than I ever expected.
