  • Starring: Jenna Fischer, Will Arnett, Will Forte
  • Summary: The Brothers Solomon tells the hilarious story of Dean and John Solomon, two good-hearted but romantically-challenged brothers. When they find out their dying father’s last wish is for a grandchild, the brothers set out to find someone to have a baby with. But after spending their formative years being home-schooled by their father in a remote arctic location, their social skills prove to be somewhat lacking and their attempts at fatherhood go hysterically and disastrously wrong.

    A better film would have matched Arnett's seemingly effortless intensity throughout. This okay film does merely okay by it.

    The sheer, animal idiocy beaming from their faces in the opening credits of The Brothers Solomon creates the film's only moment of uncalculated comic joy.

    The upbeat brothers are full of sweetness and love, but the script is made of taffy, and if you can chew and laugh at the same time, you're welcome to it.

    An utterly average film with a few hilarious scenes. Will Arnett is good, but even his Arrested Development references cannot save this mediocrity.

    It was a generic comedy that is better off as a straight to dvd release imo. There were funny moments but overall, The film was far too generic and stupid to even be slightly enjoyable.… Expand
