Expanding their one-joke skit from television's Saturday Night Live, Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell are Doug and Steve Butabi, the wearers of the rayon suits and Speedo trunks who bob their heads in unison to dance music while unsuccessfully preying on women in clubs. What's funny in a three-minute piece doesn't always get funnier by expansion, but Kattan and Ferrell give it a go with fellow SNL member Molly Shannon as their ambitious neighbor. By day they work in their father's fake-plant store. By night they prowl the club scene after spraying on the cologne in their gauchely decorated bedroom. A fender-bender with Richard Grieco (playing himself) gets them into the popular club the Roxbury, but it's not all good news, as the brothers soon find themselves torn apart. Doug and Steve are pathetic but lovable, mostly due to the actors' talents for self-deprecating humor. All gifted comedians, Kattan, Ferrell, and Shannon obviously feel comfortable around each other, and their love triangle (which prompts send-ups of Say Anything and Jerry Maguire) is the funniest joke in this mostly lame comedy. Too bad, because it clocks in at about 80 minutes and could have run on television as a pretty good episode of SNL, which has been known to get a bit lame itself. --Shannon Gee

My daughter want this DVD for her Birthday party. She wanted something funny to watch at her 17th Birthday Party and this is what she wanted. The movie is funny and has some cool music that kids of today really like. I would suggest anyone to order this movie from Amazon.com.

Classic. When SNL AND NBC had a Hit in their Hands. April 9, 2009
Jose Lopez (Miami,Florida USA)
Ferrell And Katan, This was when NBC had a Hit on their hands(Excluding the office the only good thing left on NBC) SNL when it was funny, this movie is a direct result of that. Very funny. stupid funny and silly.
Dumb & Dumber At The Disco March 27, 2009
Craig Connell (Lockport, NY USA)
Here's another modern-day comedy which automatically means two things: lots of sex jokes and stupid-but-harmless and funny characters.
This "dumb and dumber" movie features two geeks who want to enter a disco and later want to own one.....all to get chicks, of course. It does have some very good disco music; somewhat likable leads; and an entertaining supporting cast - from the parents (Dan Hedyaa and Loni Anderson are a hoot!) to the bimbos to the exercise trainer.
The movie also is short, which was a good move. You can only take so much of these idiot Butabi brothers, played by Will Ferrell and Chris Kataan. This gets a little sappy at the end when the brothers feud, but overall it's a pretty good lightweight comedy with a good share of laughs.
