Netflix Minute is a weekly feature highlighting a title from Netflix's catalog of instant view films. If you want to spend a night snuggled up with a bag of popcorn and don't want to drive to the video store, this is for you.
I’ll say it right now - I think Will Ferrell has some of the best comedic chops in the business. Furthermore, John C. Reilly has one of the best, most diverse pedigrees of any actor out there, if you ask me. You may not agree, but their intersection in the film Stepbrothers delivered one of the most hilarious 98 minutes I’ve experienced in front of a television screen in quite a while.
Considering the fact that Stepbrothers was produced by Judd Apatow, I shouldn’t really be too surprised. One of the most satisfying elements of this comedy is the fact that it was clearly aiming for an R-rating, holding no jokes back and letting the somewhat difficult to swallow premise stretch to its appropriate proportions.
