STEP BROTHERS (MA15+) Presented on 35mm

Step Brothers at Revival House Perth

Prepare for Adam McKay's outrageously hilarious 2008 comedy that proves some people never really grow up - and that's perfectly fine. When 39-year-old Brennan and 40-year-old Dale's single parents get married, these two man-children are forced to live together as step brothers, leading to an epic battle of wills that destroys everything in its path.

Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly create comedy gold as the feuding step siblings, delivering perfectly timed improvised insanity with the commitment of Shakespearean actors. Their childish rivalry escalates from bedroom warfare to full-scale domestic destruction, all while their bewildered parents try to make sense of their sons' arrested development.

McKay's direction allows his stars to fully embrace their characters' immaturity, creating set pieces that range from absurdly violent to surprisingly sweet. Mary Steenburgen and Richard Jenkins ground the chaos as the well-meaning parents caught between their love for each other and their sons' ridiculous behavior.

The film's exploration of family, friendship, and finding your place in the world comes wrapped in deliberately juvenile humor that celebrates the power of never letting go of your inner child. From drum kit destruction to job interviews gone wrong, every scene builds the lunacy while surprisingly developing genuine heart.

Presented on authentic 35mm film for the true cinematic experience!

When: Thursday, October 9th at 7:45 PM
Where: Revival House Perth
Rating: MA15+ - Crude humor, coarse language and sexual references

A gloriously immature masterpiece that proves family isn't about blood - it's about who you choose to be ridiculously stupid with. Essential viewing for anyone who's ever refused to act their age.
