Brothers

Fraternal twins Jady and Moke Munger played by Josh Brolin and Peter Dinklage respectively are the heart of Brothers. A plot which starts when the brothers vow to go get their mother, Cath (Glenn Close), stashed head of emeralds after she ran thirty years earlier.

Corrupt Judge Farful (Brendan Fraser) springs a lifetime convict named Jady from prison early and is having his inept corrections officer son James trail Jady. As the years of resentment and unresolved issues come to the surface the brothers begin their mission and what follows is the series of expected and unexpected shenanigans. The film's finale brings a bittersweet reunion with their mother after she ran again from prison.

Brothers Movie Explained

The movie is a family story, action movie, and robbery. The one driving the story is the fact that Jady and Moke have not gotten along going all the way back to their lives. From there, their trip to recover the emeralds is something that allows us to take a look at their past, their resentments, and their attempts at reumatilization. Judge Farful and his son bring such comic relief and tension to the table, as they complicate the brothers' plans. The climax of the film is full of action as well as emotion, unsurprising since the main characters face off, with a happy ending to their eternal tit for tat.

Brothers Movie Reviews

The film Brothers has been reviewed by critics from all ends, some expressing praise towards the actors, others considered the film to be shallow and incoherent. According to a Screen Rant review, Despite an impressive cast that includes all veterans of comics, film, and television, the movie is 'a little too dull', the director encouraged the actors to play up to their ham-fisted antics, making the characters not so much people, but cartoonish figures.

Despite this, Roger Ebert has a more positive view of the film, saying it has 'a lot more life than you might expect because of its performances.'

Peter Dinklage is especially singled out for his excellent and entertaining performance of Moke, a charming rogue. Many roles on the Show go underutilized, but Glenn Close has presence, intrigue, and exuberance as the twins' mother. It should also be noted that Josh Brolin's delivery as the more susceptible and manipulated brother is admirable in his total dedication to its facsimile. The editing of the film by Christian Hoffman and Martin Pensa is notable for setting its comedy on the madcap side and for more serious moments in precisely balanced proportion.

Is it Good?

Whether Brothers is a good film is a matter of personal taste. The movie has a lot to offer for those who like films with strong performances and a taste of comedy and drama. However, Peter Dinklage’s performance is a highlight, and the film’s editing and pacing are, for the most part, smooth. Unfortunately, viewers expecting a more serious or coherent story will probably be disappointed with the over-the-top characters and convoluted plot the film has to offer.

All in all, Brothers (2024) is an entertaining and solidly written film about brothers and their differences, which in this case feature solid performances. Though it won't be everyone’s cup of tea, it is definitely one well worth watching for genre fans as well as the talented cast.
