Frank Bartlett has been tortured, embarrassed, and humiliated by his brother Bruce -- usually on film -- his entire life. Now that Bruce is finally off drugs and has turned his life around, things should be different. They are not.
I made the mistake of paying to watch this film. It is almost dreadful. I say almost because the director has shown that he is able to employ some useful examples of cinematography but almost everything else about this film was bad. Bad script, bad acting, bad plot, utterly disappointing!
However, the director has shown some promise, and having seen (and been impressed by) his earlier work I am confident that he can improve the quality of his work without having to resort to churning out bilge like this that impresses no-one. The film was billed as a gentle comedy, but i failed to see the humour. Indeed other members of the audience were laughing at times, but I can only put this down to the fact that the cinema allowed its customers to drink alcohol during the film!
