The Brothers Solomon (2007)

by D. Jacob Ryals

Home schooled kids have never been this funny.
You forget that there are some good jokes in this movie.  You never hear about this movie, and it won't go down in anyone's comedy hall of fame, but its actually better than I thought it would be.  Then again, I didn't realize till just now that Bob Odenkirk was the director and I don't think there is a movie he's been connected to I haven't liked in some fashion.  I would definitley say give this a movie a chance.  There are some jokes that fall a little flat (like the movie rental return joke) but there are some really great ones (like the coaxing of the little girl into their car).  Will Arnett and Forte are great in this movie.  They are both really good at playing innocent awkwardly.  Chi McBride also does a great angry black man.  
Give this one a chance.
