A truly discreet dramatic comedy that with great depth and at the same time intimacy, digs into a particular relationship between two twins linked by the same childhood almost totally conditioned by a present and affectionate but at the same time very sad father who concluded early his life with a suicide that has greatly influenced the past but also the present of his two sons.
Twins at the same time so different yet so similar and bound by a strong and extremely credible and deep brotherly love, similar also in the kind of life, an unsatisfactory, melancholy life where something is missing enough to bring both to attempt suicide just like their father had done before them to look for an escape from the disappointments and injustices of life.
A relationship that has suffered from a distance that lasted more than ten years but perhaps it is the only thing that can complete their life and that can make them move forward together.
One of the biggest surprises of the film is precisely the interpretations of the two protagonists, Kristen Wiig who proves to be unexpectedly talented even in dramatic roles and an extraordinary Bill Hader that represents the soul of the film thanks to its performance in perfect harmony with its charismatic and complexed character.
What is missing from the film is a more incisive personality and a better beat and amalgamated rhythm that would have helped especially to make it more engaging and less heavy, in any case manages to convey a variety of emotions thanks to many scenes that I will hardly forget because of their really strong emotional impact.
