Movie Review: 'Our Idiot Brother' Forgets to be Funny

Even with a talented comedic cast, 'Our Idiot Brother' isn't worth seeing.

Here, right at the end of August, comes the most disjointed, discombobulated movie of the summer. Our Idiot Brother wastes a cast of very talented comedic performers by giving them just about nothing funny to do and sticking them in a plot in which every character is a moron, a moral monster or both.

Crazy, Stupid, Love is a delightful surprise. Here's a lively, well-acted, deeply honest look at love, family and romance. If you've seen a movie in the past six months, you've almost certainly seen the movie's trailer—I know I've seen it dozens of times. The movie is not only much better than the mediocre preview would indicate, but doesn't end nearly as predictably as you may have thought. Steve Carell stars as a suburban dad whose wife (Julianne Moore) confesses in the film's first scene that she's had an affair (with co-worker Kevin Bacon) and wants to leave him. Fans of Robert Altman's Short Cuts will perhaps be disappointed to learn that this time, Moore's confession of an affair is not delivered while naked from the waist down. …
