Some Quickie Movie Reviews

-------------------------------------------------------------
.
.
STEP BROTHERS

This is a very funny movie.
Think the Brady Bunch, except each parent 
has only one kid and each kid is 40 years old and still lives at home.

Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly are the step brothers after
both their parents marry.

Yes they are both about 40 years old but you 
wouldn't know it by the way the act.
They are more like 12 year old kids.

Both these guys are enabled by their parents 
allowing them to stay home that long without jobs or 
just actually becoming adults.

All that changes after the wedding as they now have to
share a room and go out and get jobs.

Their antics during the job interviews and 
both brothers sleepwalking shenanigans are a laugh out loud riot.

3 1/2 out of 5 stars

MAN ON WIRE (documentary)

This is the story of how a man and his friends
strung a wire form one tower to the other 
of the World Trade Center about 35 years ago.

Even though you know that he has survived 
this feat(he narrates the movie and is interviewed throughout)
You are still mesmerized and on the edge of your seat hoping he doesn't fall.

This movie will probably win for best Doc at the Oscars for this year.
Must See.
4 out of 5 stars.
