The Brothers Solomon

Aspires for a high level of distilled creepiness, but it turns out to be very uneven. Will Forte is pitch-perfect, but Will Arnett, whose brazen cluelessness on Arrested Development was sublime, stumbles here. He’s too lecherous, and not innocent enough to be sympathetic. Kristen Wiig is unfortunately underused and plays it straight. Not the worst movie of the year, (it gets points for daring), but under no circumstances can I recommend it.

  1. This film might work when it comes out on DVD, then you can fast forward thru most of the bad jokes. But there still are some good ones.
