There are way too many clips in this movie. Obviously, it's from time before Youtube.
A well known story, which, funny enough for a movie w/Cobie Smulders before HIMYM, echoes Barney Stinson telling Ted Mosby "I'm gonna teach you how to live", is not very-well carried out. The "Barney Stinson" of this movie (the older brother) is lacking any real plan or "plays". "Ted Mosby" of this story - the younger brother (who hooks up w/Robin Scherbatsky of this story, obviously) is not nearly so goofy or interestingly "out to lunch". He's mostly just whining.
But, these guys and gals are having fun and do manage to crank up a few good jokes and some well placed (if immature and borderline disgusting) clips. Since you can see them having fun, you're kind of OK with it.
So, it's an OK watch, but there are much better comedies.
