I love this movie on siblings love. The opening scene had me laugh so hard. The cat-and-dog contrast offers great comedic moments. Watching Ben, the over thinker, putting on a gang persona and having so much fun. It was hilarious and a sweet sibling bond moment. All the over-the-top elements work beautifully, like the number of paintings in the room or the car.
Maybe I would have loved to see a little bit more of Ben's world crashing when it comes to his bar exam. It seems that he was distracted and annoyed but it could have been stronger stake: missed opportunity for contrast and comedic shame as well as stronger emotional damage before it turns around.
Overall though, I love the authenticity of their relationship. Great sibling comedy! Very promising first feature, a comedy that has depth. It is a delicate task to achieve.
