movie forecast: the brothers solomon

editor's note: for a detailed explanation of a movie forecast, click here

the brothers solomon looks like a movie where the actors seem to have a great time filming the movie. usually when this is the case, the movie ends up in one of two ways: really bad, or really good. in the case of this movie, i'm expecting it to be really good. from what i can tell, it stars will arnett [another actor from arrested development] and will forte [saturday night live] playing two brothers who are socially inept but now seek to father a child for some reason. i know that will arnett will deliver [especially if he plays it like gob], and will forte seems like he'll actually be funny for a change [i usually don't like his characters on snl]. though the plot might seem to be weak, the chemistry of the actors [and maybe its writing] is what will put this film over the top of other comedies of its ilk.

prognosis: 8/10
