Sorry, we can't find any suggestions at the moment.
Larry (Jason Schwartzman) is content with his dog Arrow and booze, barely tolerating anything or anyone else. His marginally successful relationships include his grandmother, who keeps him afloat financially, and his best friend Norwood, who provides him with pharmaceuticals. But a chance encounter at a Jiffy Lube gives Larry a beguiling new boss and the impetus to head in another direction for a while. This movie showcases all that may be needed to help a person get unstuck in life: love (or an unrequited crush), friendship (or someone your family likes better than you) and family (or in this case a grandmother who will support you whenever you get fired from a job).
Leave your thoughts about 7 Chinese Brothers.
| Screen-SpaceSimon Foster[Keeps] sentimentality in check and provides a denouement that honours the legacy of the 90's era slacker genre, from which it draws much of its personality. |
| Reeling ReviewsLaura CliffordByington could have made a Youtube video of Schwartzman just talking to his dog and the results would have been much the same. Good thing they're such amusing company. |
| The Film StageBill Graham7 Chinese Brothers has an abundance of half-hearted slacker charm that it is hard to fault. |
| Madison MovieRob Thomas"7 Chinese Brothers," modest and unassuming, wins us over too, even though I can't figure out what the R.E.M. song has to do with the movie. Plus, it looks like Byington could only afford 2 Chinese brothers at most. |
| AV ClubNoel MurrayBob Byington’s 7 Chinese Brothers is no "Listen Up Philip," but it’s an amiable enough slacker comedy, boosted by its star. |
| Cambridge DayTom MeekIt's a small film, with some great performances and one irrefutably cute dog. |
| New York PostSara StewartFeels like an homage to the early work of Wes Anderson with its plinky soundtrack, solipsistic banter and emphasis on uniforms. |
| Village VoiceAlan ScherstuhlA comedy too listless to bother crafting jokes or comic incidents, a character study centered on a sweet-natured prick it's hard to believe could actually exist tumbleweeding into a job at a lube shop, 7 Chinese Brothers is a go-nowhere shrug of a movie, the kind of indie that might send you screaming for the multiplex. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeByington's two-chuckle-a-minute script is mostly interested in Larry's constant, evasive patter, which continues whether the target of his words appears to care what he's saying or not. |
| Cinemalogue.comTodd JorgensonThe project is more of a sketchy workshop than a fleshed-out feature, but at least Schwartzman's freewheeling banter provides some modest amusement. |
