Will Ferrell continues to sink further into non-funny territory.  Does he “step” up the game with Step Brothers, re-teaming with the director of the hilarious Talladega Nights and Anchorman?

QUALITY:
Faded color, ok sound.

BONUS FEATURES:
Theatrical and unrated versions of the film, commentary, deleted scenes, interviews

The movie falls kind of flat.  Reilly takes his character a bit over the top and Ferrell doesn’t take his quite far enough.  With Anchorman faring so well with heavy improvisation, I think director Adam McKay relied a little too much on that practice this time around and the actors were trying a little too hard.  The quality is a little shoddy but the special features are decent.
