Many Laughs, Good Plot, Good Story Arc, Passable Acting

Rating: 10/10 (18 July 2004)

I really don't understand the low rating of this movie. For me and the people I've watched it with, it was literally a laugh a minute.
For the record, there is no underlying theme that the brothers are gay, some people just don't understand intense, nonsexual love between two men.
Nor are Doug and Steve "losers" as some people have said. They're just "differently successful". ;-)
Nor is it the film's target audience 12 year old boys. It's fun for people who were of age during the 80s, and my nearly 16 year old daughter and her intellectual friends love it, though it's annoying to watch it with them because they've memorized all the lines.
Some people have complained that the movie has no plot, but it does have a plot, and it even has an arc to the story line, actually multiple arcs to multiple story lines, which is why the end of the movie is so satisfying, because each of several conflicts is resolved in the last ten minutes.
This is an excellent film, entertaining throughout. I gave it a 10.
