John and Dean Solomon are two guys that have been away from civilization for too long. After their mother died, their father Ed, decided to take them to the North Pole where the boys wanted to live and gave them a home education. The result of their upbringing created two guys that are misfits in a society such as ours where being cool is the norm. These brothers have no clue as to how to act.
When Ed Solomon collapses into a coma, the boys decide to bring him home together with all the medical paraphernalia that will keep him alive. In one lucid moment John and Dean figure what could be best to get the father out of his condition? They decide it must be a baby that will restore his lost health because of the joy it will give the old man. The only problem is these guys do not know how to create it.
"The Brothers Solomon", directed by Bob Odenkirk, a man that has been among the writers for Saturaday Night Live and has been involved in a lot of television. The comedy was written by one of the stars, Will Forte, who plays Dean Solomon. This is a picture that is obviously not for everybody, and, judging by the negative comments submitted to this forum, has equal amounts of lovers and haters. Some of the gags work better than others. The director gets deadpan acting from the two principals that deliver their lines with a straight face.
Will Arnett and Will Forte play the inane brothers with gusto. To their credit, both actors are never obnoxious. This is a perfect party movie when friends are looking for a few laughs enjoying a cold beer. Kristen Wiig, also of S.N.L., Malin Ackerman, Chi McBride and Lee Majors, who never utters a word, are seen in supporting roles.
