One joke over and over again

Rating: 5/10 (1 June 2014)

Clueless brothers Steve (Will Ferrell) and Doug Butabi (Chris Kattan) can't get into the Roxbury and dreams of opening their own club. They are still living with their parents Barbara (Loni Anderson) and Kamehl (Dan Hedaya) working at the hated family flower shop. Family friend Emily Sanderson (Molly Shannon) lusts after Steve who can't stand her. The guys get rear-ended by 80s star Richard Grieco and they finally have an in into the Roxbury. Gold-diggers Vivica (Gigi Rice) and Cambi (Elisa Donovan) sees the guys talking to the owner Zadir (Chazz Palminteri) and assumes that they have money.
The guys and writer from SNL Steve Koren are just piling stupidity onto the Butabi brothers. Steve is slightly more likable because he's just stupid whereas Doug has a real mean streak. The problem is that the movie does the one joke over and over again. It's a little cute at times but mostly it's boring. If Doug is a lot nicer, then it would easier to root for the guys. If there is any hope for this movie, it's the bromance with the brothers. This could have been another 'Dumb and Dumber'. Only Doug is way too angry.
