One word comes to mind when viewing this movie: dysfunctional. As in, extremely dysfunctional. Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Ethan Hawke play brothers whose individual circumstances drive them to financial troubles. As a solution, they decide to rob a "mom and pop" jewellry store...literally, a "mom and pop" one, their own. But when the robbery is botched, the brothers crumble and so does... (more)

Im not really a sucker for flicks without good plots, however you stating that it is dysfunctional does make me wonder a little bit. If you gave it a grade like in school what would it be?

Maybe a C+, B at best. I don't think you can go wrong with this movie. It's just that with so many films coming out these days that wow me, this somehow falls short. It seems to be one of those movies that you're either the type to like it or not. Check it out though if there's nothing on your queue that you've been waiting this long to watch.

Step Brothers movie review

Some people may think Ferrell is just up to his old schtick, which I can see what they mean, but I love it. He was in his element with this movie, and it was much better than some of his other roles as of late.

Horton Hears a WHO! Movie Review

I think what I found most refreshing about this movie is that it took me a while to figure out which characters Jim Carey and Steve Carell were playing. It seriously could have been the other way around and I really like that. It felt like they were actually making an effort to play the characters as opposed to just being a famous voice in an animated cartoon.
