Preview: Our Idiot Brother (2011)

Synopsis:

Incarcerated briefly for selling a copy pot, a free love hippie seeks out one of his sister and begins staying with them despite his inability to grasp life and its consequences.

• Poster: C+

Review:

The idea of making the poster look like it's part of the free love era and Rudd as some kind of blissful flower child works a little, but overall is just off-putting.

• Trailer: B

Review:

When I first heard about the film, I thought it was some kind of slapstick, gross-out comedy, yet the trailer makes it seem a little more genuine and funny to boot.

Oscar Prospects:

None.

Release Date:

• August 26, 2011
