Do You Have Will Ferrell Fatigue?

Do You Have Will Ferrell Fatigue?

Ah, Will Ferrell. He — and/or his characters — are incredibly divisive in the sense that you either go to a Will Ferrell movie for him or you avoid a Will Ferrell movie because of him. And while I used to be part of the former camp (I mean, Elf and Stranger Than Fiction are really good), I'm starting to fall into the latter (see: my feelings on Step Brothers). There are only so many times I Read more

Step Brothers Movie Review

Step Brothers is yet another entry into the canon of movies that have resulted from the collaboration between director Adam McKay, star Will Ferrell, and (. . . wait for it) producer Judd Apatow. After mining all kinds of scenarios for comedy (anchormen, race car drivers, the '70s in general, etc.), even these funny guys have to hit the bottom of the barrel sometime. I imagine the concept that Read more

Movie Preview: Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly in Step Brothers

It's still no Anchorman or Old School, but this next Will Ferrell project Step Brothers looks like it might be at least better than Semi-Pro. For one thing, it's directed and co-written by Adam McKay who wrote Anchorman and who, of course, collaborated with his daughter Pearl to make the viral video "The Landlord." For another thing, it seems like it will be based on these two big kids, Brennan Read more

Will & John Are Fancy Step Brothers

Will & John Are Fancy Step Brothers

Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly got all fancied up in their tuxedos on the set of Step Brothers. We're already liking this better than the NASCAR jumpsuits they wore for Talladega Nights. Besides, how could we not be on board with a movie that not only raised money for charity, but will feature a cameo by a lucky little boy? Good stuff all around. View 20 Photos Read more
