Review of Our Idiot Brother (2011) by André D — 26 Jul 2015

Our Idiot Brother? More like Our Idiot Writers. Now I was not expecting that much from this, I was hoping Paul Rudd would be Paul Rudd and it would at least get some laughs, but, the way this is written, Paul Rudd being Paul Rudd is not nearly enough.

Now don't get me wrong, Paul Rudd is good as Ned, and the 3 actresses playing his sisters (Elizabeth Banks, Zooey Deschanel and Emily Mortimer) are also good, but unfortunately, nothing happens in this movie.

I don't know what is going on with Paul Rudd because this is the 3rd movie in a row of his that was not very good (after Dinner For Schmucks and How Do You Know), he was on fire after Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Role Models and I Love You Man, but I think his script choosing has been lackluster.

This is a poor movie at best, but hey it's not the worst thing ever so I guess that's something. SKIP IT.
