Amazon.com: Expanding their one-joke skit from television's Saturday Night Live, Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell are Doug and Steve Butabi, the wearers of the rayon suits and Speedo trunks who bob their heads in unison to dance music while unsuccessfully preying on women in clubs. What's funny in a three-minute piece doesn't always get funnier by expansion, but Kattan and Ferrell give it a go with fellow SNL member Molly Shannon as their ambitious neighbor. By day they work in their father's fake-plant store. By night they prowl the club scene after spraying on the cologne in their gauchely decorated bedroom. A fender-bender with Richard Grieco (playing himself) gets them into the popular club the Roxbury, but it's not all good news, as the brothers soon find themselves torn apart. Doug and Steve are pathetic but lovable, mostly due to the actors' talents for self-deprecating humor. All gifted comedians, Kattan, Ferrell, and Shannon obviously feel comfortable around each other, and their love triangle (which prompts send-ups of Say Anything and Jerry Maguire) is the funniest joke in this mostly lame comedy. Too bad, because it clocks in at about 80 minutes and could have run on television as a pretty good episode of SNL, which has been known to get a bit lame itself. --Shannon Gee

Rating: - Roxbury Rox!
This movie so fun to watch, whether you're 10, 15, 18 or 50. Trust me, once you watch it you'll make other people watch it with you and the music is so much fun too. Anyone who grew up in the 80's - 90's will love it. The extra features are cool too. They talk about the costumes, music, the Real Roxbury club in LA, and the actors also do commentary which is really funny to watch.

'Songs' will haunt you (Poughkeepsie Journal)
Some books should come with warnings. That's not a complaint, at least in the case of Stewart O'Nan's haunting novel "Songs for the Missing," which kept me up most of the night.
