Stars Mark Webber, Zooey Deschanel, Chris Klein, Bill Paxton, Drea De Matteo and Harry Dean Stanton are at their best in this thoughtful, searing portrait of life in the all-American, football-obsessed Midwest. Jason Prayer (Webber) doesn't care about football, but that's just one reason he doesn't fit in. To escape his dead-end existence, he retreats into classic old movies- until he meets the beautiful and mysterious Frances (Deschanel). But when Jason learns that Frances isn't as she appears, he makes some drastic decisions in the explosive climax of this drama about one man's search, against all odds, for The Good Life.

The afterthought child to elderly parents (ED ASNER, JANE ALEXANDER), and the youngest son in a trio of successful brothers, a shady oil man (IAN ROBERTS), a surgeon (ROBERT STANTON), Brian is searching for his place in the world. Unfulfilled by his work he spends a good portion of his day pursuing his goal of someday adopting a baby from China. He gets swept up in a romance with the lovely but misguided Harriet Lolly (ZOOEY DESCHANEL) when she comes in to his store one day and falls asleep on one of the beds. To win her over, he must compete with her bear of a father, Al Lolly, (JOHN GOODMAN) an art-collecting loudmouth with a bad back and deep pockets. GIGANTIC is a funny, surreal love story about the anxiety that comes when two people with crazy families collide unexpectedly and fall for each other. (close)

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.
