Brooklyn Brothers Beat the Best

2012 · 98 min

A loose, offbeat road comedy that charms with its scrappy DIY spirit and oddball humor, even when it drifts.

Directed by
Ryan O'Nan
Genres
Comedy
Overview
Recently dumped by his girlfriend, underachiever Alex (O'Nan) embarks on an impromptu road trip with his new bandmate, the eccentric Jim (Michael Weston). By channeling their inner children and giving a new meaning to the term "lo-fi," Alex and Jim find their unique style by bringing the sound of children's instruments to their unsuspecting fans. Playing a series of bizarre shows and experiencing multiple near-disasters, Alex and Jim's persistence takes them on a true coming-of-age journey
How it feels
