  Step Brothers: In Step Brothers Ferrell plays Brennan Huff a sporadically employed thirty-nine-year-old who lives with his mother Nancy (Mary Steenburgen). Reilly plays Dale Doback a terminally unemployed forty-year-old who lives with his father Robert (Richard Jenkins). When Robert and Nancy marry and move in together Brennan and Dale are forced to live with each other as step brothers. As their narcissism and downright aggressive laziness threaten to tear the family apart these two middle-aged immature overgrown boys will orchestrate an insane elaborate plan to bring their parents back together. To pull it off they must form an unlikely bond that maybe just maybe will finally get them out of the house. Talladega Nights: A comedy film about a fictional NASCAR racing driver named Ricky Bobby. It has fun with stereotypes of the sort of people involved with NASCAR racing. Kicking & Screaming: Welcome to that cutthroat hyper-competitive do-or-die sport of...little-league soccer; a world where kids and their victory-crazed suburban parents find themselves on a high-stakes collision course-all in the name of good clean athletic fun. At the epicenter of this overzealous world is Phil Weston ((Will Ferrell) a gentle New-Agey vitamin salesman who by default ends up coaching his sweet 10-year-old son Sam's (Dylan McLaughlin) last-place team the Tigers. This would be tough enough for the super-supportive Phil who truly believes it's not whether you win or lose but if your soul gets nurtured. But when he's pitted against his gung-ho relentlessly competitive father Buck (Robert Duvall) who coaches his own young son Bucky's (Josh Hutcherson) top-ranked team the Gladiators a lifetime of putting up with Buck's overbearing ways finally takes its toll on Phil and well...the balls hit the field. Eventually as Phil and Buck go head-to-head for the soccer league championship the pair's past and constant rivalry spins wildly out of control forcing each to stop at nothing to ensure a winning season. This includes a now-maniacal Phil recruiting the world's best assistant coach the legendary Mike Ditka (played by none other than Mike Dikta) as well as two young Italian soccer prodigies who become the Tigers' secret weapons. Can father and son put their rocky past behind do what's best for their own children (and grandchild!) and realize that soccer is just a game? Not a chance! May the best coach win. Stranger Than Fiction: Stranger Than Fiction is an inventive comedy about a novelist (Emma Thompson) struggling to complete her latest and potentially finest book - she only has to find a way to kill off her main character Harold Crick and she'll be done. Little does she know that Harold Crick (Will Ferrell) is inexplicably alive and well in the real world and suddenly aware of her words. Fiction and reality collide when the bewildered and hilariously resistant Harold hears what she has in mind and realizes he must find a way to change her (and his) ending.

  American Pie: You'll never look at warm apple pie the same way again! American Pie takes a hysterical look at the goal of four ""unlucky in love"" high school friends who make the ultimate pact: lose their virginity by prom night. As they try to manipulate their way into the hearts of some of their classmates their plans often backfire with hilarity. One fails to score with the sexy foreign exchange student and then makes a last ditch effort with a band member who has an interesting way with her flute while another is so desperate he actually hires someone to give him a ""reputation"". Follow the raging hormones of four teenage boys and their girls as they gear up for the most important night of their lives; the prom! (Dir. Paul Weitz 1999) American Pie 2: After their first year apart at college the guys (Kevin Jim Oz Finch and Stifler) rent a beach house vowing to celebrate their friendship and make this the best summer ever. But as always whether their dreams come true or not is ultimately up to the girls (Vicky Michelle Nadia Heather and Jessica). Through one boisterous summer of ear-splitting parties side-splitting mishaps - and yes a trip to band camp - the gang discovers that times change and people change but friendship lasts a lifetime. (Dir. J.B. Rogers 2001) American Wedding: Jim (Jason Biggs) and Michelle (Alyson Hannigan) have finally decided to tie the knot but with their friends (including Stifler) returning from college the chances of their big day going off without a hilarious hitch or two are very small indeed!

• Talladega Nights - The Ballad Of Ricky Bobby/Kicking And Screaming | DVD | (02/06/2008) from £9.70   |  Saving you £3.29 (25.30%)   |  RRP £12.99

  This boxset contains the following films: Kicking & Screaming (Dir. Jesse Dylan) (2005): In Kicking & Screaming funny man Will Ferrell's (Old School Anchorman: The Legend Of Ron Burgundy) humorous man-child antics meet actual kids on the soccer pitch. He plays vitamin salesman Phil Weston a sensitive man easily capable of both crying and sewing. Unfortunately for Phil these qualities have never quite endeared him to his tough-as-nails father Buck (Robert Duvall) who will stop at nothing to one-up Phil. He goes so far as benching Phil's 10-year-old son - his own grandson - on the youth soccer team he coaches. Upon Phil's begging to get his son more playing time Buck trades his grandson to the last-place team the Tigers. Not just any normal cellar-dwelling outfit the Tigers feature a cast of loveable losers who prefer eating worms and telling jokes to playing soccer. When the Tigers' coach leaves putting the season on the line an inexperienced Phil steps in to helm his son's new team. With help from Buck's neighbour and rival real-life football coach Mike Ditka - hilariously playing himself - the Tigers turn their season around. Fuelled by a raging caffeine habit Phil starts to overly obsess with beating Buck losing sight of why he took the job in the first place - to be a better dad to his own son. Director Jesse Dylan (American Wedding) is a natural for the story-line being famed musician Bob Dylan's son. Farrell for once is content to play straight arrow to the crazy tykes in the first half of the film before he unleashes his trademark zaniness in the latter half. Those attributes alone along with fun-loving family themes make Kicking & Screaming a treat for fans both young and old. Talledega Nights (Dir. Adam McKay) (2006): Talledega Nights: The Ballard Of Ricky Bobby is a comedy film about a fictional NASCAR racing driver named Ricky Bobby. It has fun with stereotypes of the sort of people involved with NASCAR racing.
