Trivia:
Shipped to some theaters under the name "The Insane Team". moreGoofs:
Factual errors: In the Wine Mixer scene when Dale is first playing drum rolls, it sounds like he is playing them with drum sticks, but it is showed he is playing them with yarn mallets. In real life performing a drum roll with mallets would not sound the same as performing it with drum sticks, and would be a lot more difficult. moreSoundtrack:

I have to write this review right after watching it. I hadn't been following Will Farrell lately, as I thought Semi-Pro was semi-funny and felt he was losing it. Just rented this today since I really like John C. Reilly (one of the most versatile, yet underrated actors around!) and they both wrote it. What a pleasant, yet shocking surprise! Step Brothers definitely has its highs and lows, and admittedly there were some scenes that were not bordering, but downright stepped over the line of cringe-worthy, but that was always the case with Farrell's movies. Those people who walked out half way, they missed one of THE MOST explosive finishes I have ever seen. The ending "climax" scene was one of the most creative, brilliant, and most importantly TALENTED scenes I have ever seen. It definitely left a lasting impression.
Will Farrell and John C. Reilly have outdone themselves. It's far too late to recommend people to see this in theatres, but definitely rent it if you haven't seen it. Fans of Farrell and generally wacky, over the top childish humor should love it, and Reilly does a fantastic job mirroring him. Richard Jenkins was great and pulled off his role perfectly, contributing to many of the hilarities, and Mary Steenburgen is just stunningly beautiful at 55!
