The Brothers Solomon

I would have given this movie a higher score if kept me laughing throughout the whole film. Don't misunderstand, there are HILARIOUS parts in this movie but as a whole, it deserves an average.

Will Arnet is amazing at being awkwardly hysterical, and I feel he really did his part. Will Forte though just didn't hold up his part of the deal I'm afraid.

One thing I thought was funny was how they are such horrible drivers, they may have hit five cars or so swerving around traffic and nobody said a thing about it. Something subtle like that really makes me laugh.

I must say though, the opening credits were the highlight of this movie. My sides were aching before the movie even started...but the rest of the movie just funny, not side splitting.

Worth a watch for sure

This movie reminded me a lot of Dumb and Dumber. Two dumb brothers that have no luck with the ladies decide they need to have a child for their comatose father. They are annoying and quite disgusting at times. This movie was not laugh out loud funny, but was amusing at times. I really liked the airplane banner at the end. That was funny. In the beginning they buy women groceries in hopes of getting phone numbers. But no such luck. One of the brothers ask a woman to marry him on the first date. They just don't get the dating game. But of course think they are cool. There were many more silly things throughout the film.

FINAL VERDICT: This is for people who like all those silly Jim Carrey films. So check it out, if you fall in that category.

I usually don't write reviews for comedies, because they usually don't deserve one. These days, we know our actors and can say, "Yea, it's going to contain this sort of comedy, if I liked what he (or they) did last year, I will love this," and that isn't to put down comedies at all, they are made that way and they're hilarious (as most comedians usually write or co-write and produce their films these days). This film, which I never even heard whimpered or scoffed of anywhere, deserves a review, because I don't think many people paid it any mind.

The film was written by Forte (Dean Solomon), a recent SNL personality (I never watch it personally). I never knew his comedy style, but the two brothers, (John Solomon played by Arnett) both have symmetrical characters who play off each other as pretty much two men who were raised in a sheltered home and pretty much see everything in a very positive light.

Their own characters weren't even that annoying, as one might think, and I am easily annoyed by characters. They were straight forward guys who would ball-bust people with a smile on their face. The comedy is situational to them pretty much completing scenes with their personalities (playful 'burning' of each other with wise cracks or situations that happened to them and getting by spotty and racy situations by their pure ignorance to their offenses).

Simply put, if you like comedy, you will like this movie. It has a very good modern plot with a twist and two characters who are hilarious. If you liked Dumb and Dumber you should be reminded of the quaint quirky humor back in the 90's, with this new fresh look at situational comedy.

The plot also keeps moving, unlike some comedies that catch a snag. This movie is continuously in motion with pretty much trial and error scenes that are all a laugh.

I had the opportunity to watch "The Brothers Solomon" for the second time here in 2021. Sure, I watched it back around 2007 or 2008, when it was relatively new, but I have to admit that I couldn't remember the movie. So as I had the opportunity to watch it again, of course I did so.

And I must say that "The Brothers Solomon" is definitely one of those comedy movies that just work out on just about every level. I had completely forgotten the storyline told in the movie, and I had forgotten just how amazingly funny both Will Arnett and Will Forte are.

The storyline told in "The Brothers Solomon", as written by Will Forte, is actually one that is every bit as funny as it is one that is entertaining. So Will Forte definitely churned out something good here with the script, and gave director Bob Odenkirk some solid material to work with.

There is just so many funny moments and scenes to be enjoyed throughout the course of this 2007 comedy, so I was laughing most of the time. That was something I enjoyed about the movie, because this is how comedy is done right.

Aside from the great comedy team of Will Arnett and Will Forte, then "The Brothers Solomon" also had the likes of Kristen Wiig, Chi McBride, Lee Majors, Bill Hader, Sam Lloyd and Bob Odenkirk on the cast list. So you really are in for a good treat with a stellar comedy cast.

Having returned to watch "The Brothers Solomon" was definitely a good move on my part, because this movie is just hilarious. And it is a great addition to the comedy genre.

I am rating "The Brothers Solomon" a well-deserved seven out of ten stars.

Yes this movie began with everything amusing oddly, its about 2 men sibling John & Dean, where their mother is passed away when they little kid and then their former military dad raised them by homeschool. Their childhood was filled by what their dad thought at their residence without connecting with other human cause the was stayed in North Pole was before.

Then they grew up they return to society but with odd manner like their comman sense side's with opposite direction thats conclude odd humourism in this movie. This movie must got average rating because some people probabbly feel annoyance by this two main character, by me im feel slight odd but im enjoyed some of their funny scenes.

They found out their father in the Coma, then Doctor said about their father wishes dream to have a first grandchildren, they with.motivation and passionate about their father will, they worked hard to make the dream come true, started odd and clean soul journey of two uncomman senses brother to achieve their Dad dream. I thought this movie is just simple minded emptyness without good ending, im wrong, im cried for the climax scenes, give movie of chance and yeah the brother smile alot like that lately horror movie smile, i think they was the first invented the unnessary smile before the smile horror movie lol.
