Strange Brew in a word is... FUNNY! (Or at least I think so?!) I have owned this movie for about 11 years, and i've shown it to most of my friends at one time or another; However, only a few seem to share my enthusiasm for the McKensie bros. Here's a tip for those who didn't like it. The lion at the beginning, it didn't roar. No siree! It... burped. That is a huge clue as to what kind of movie you are watching. If you didn't laugh, then SHUT THE VCR/DVD player off! If you almost laughed, watch the next few minutes and then quickly make your decision because that is a good indication of how the movie begins, flows, and ends.
How many movies can you see 30 or 40 times and still enjoy? Strange Brew is that type of movie for me. I have to admit though, that it isn't quite as strong towards the end. It's almost as though the writers got tired. That is why I only give it 8 out of 10 stars.
You don't have to be a fan of SCTV to enjoy Strange Brew, but it sure helps. Going back to the roots of Bob and Doug McKensie just makes the movie that much better for me, mostly because of the differences between the characters in the movie adaptation.
Now given that this movie has been out for so long, and that Bob and Doug McKensie have crossed so many genres, you probably know all about what i've said and then some. If that is the case, quit reading and go watch Strange Brew!
