"You used to be hot. Hot and tall. You're still tall." -Zoey Deschanel to Emily Mortimer
I like Paul Rudd. Turns out he is pretty awesome. Our Idiot Brother is a semi-launch platform for Paul to prove his awesom-itude and lovable acting chops. On the other hand, there really is very little new, unique, or redeeming about Our Idiot Brother beyond its ridiculously talented cast. There's nothing wrong with it, it's just a ho hum formulaic not quite comedy.
Oh and a not to the casting agent: I in no way believe that Elizabeth Banks, Emily Mortimer, and Zoey Deschanel came from the same mother and father. To have 1 extremely attractive daughter is believable....to have 3 is just too much.
Ratings
Rashida Jones: Loved you with the big glasses and all
Kato and Inspector Clouseau: YES
Good Hippie People: See it
Thinking about lying?: See it
Ugly member of an incredibly attractive family?: Skip it
On a scale of Brian Fantana to Mike Hannigan, I give Our Idiot Brother 3 out of 5 stars.
