Action Drama Thriller War

7.1 / 10

Before leaving on his second tour in Afghanistan, Marine Captain Sam Cahill, a leader, an athlete, a good husband and father, welcomes his screw-up brother Tommy home from prison. He'd robbed a bank. In country, Sam's helicopter is shot down and all are presumed dead. Back home, while Sam wastes away as a prisoner in a remote encampment, Tommy tries to take care of the widow and her two children. While imprisoned, Sam experiences horrors unbearable, so when he's rescued and returns home, he's silent, detached, without affect, and he's convinced his wife and brother have slept together. Demons of war possess him; what will silence them?

The original Danish version is immensely better, but the story is good and the plot interesting and twisty...if you can handle subtitles however, I would strongly recommend watching the Danish one: Broders! Excellent! - @Monday, October 22, 2012 12:35 AM

The Danish movie, the original one, is WAY better agreed! And I am NOT Danish. I only speak English and Spanish. But we rented this one and then stopped it after about 20 minutes because I could tell it was going to be a huge let down. But some people hate to deal with subtitles...so if that's the case, I suppose you can see this one. But, if you can handle subs at all, PLEASE watch the Danish movie. The actors are beyond what these guys do - and I like these three US actors. - @Monday, October 22, 2012 12:33 AM

i cant wait to see this, love the cast, and the plot, basically they could make 2 hours of silence whilst natalie portman sits and watches the steam emanate from dog shit and it would be brilliant. hahaha - @Wednesday, June 6, 2012 12:25 AM

No, it sure didn't show the whole movie. I don't think the movie was anything like the trailer, Its pretty deceiving...it was a good movie though. - @Monday, August 29, 2011 8:50 AM

It's lame with no credits to the original Danish movie makers. What's the deal writing a script you just have to translate? -Instructing a movie all ready played? - @Thursday, August 4, 2011 6:09 PM

@CathrineHelene hang on all i said was i didn't really like it? i know people that have been to iraq and afghanistan and it doesnt change how i feel about the film. and if you read reviews of the film i really don't think anyone else particularly liked it either. it was ok but it didnt really work for me. maybe the original was better. - @Thursday, February 24, 2011 7:05 PM

I didn't realize it when this movie came out, but this is a remake of a Danish movie also called Brothers, but you know, in Danish. LOL. I actually saw the Danish movie first and then our American version. The Danish one is WAY better. I liked the acting better, especially by Nikolaj Lie Kaas in the Jake Gyllenhaal park. Nikolaj is amazing. This one really hits you over the head with things that where way more subtle, but just as evident, in the Danish version making this one pretty cheesy - @Tuesday, October 5, 2010 4:30 AM

this movie is just a remaking of the danish movie "brothers" the americans just thought they would make their own version, but the story is totally the same, its just that it's actually not an american movie - @Monday, May 3, 2010 7:25 PM

Why dont you serve 4 tours in Iraq away from your wife and family and then get blown all to hell, come back and find out your brother is fucking the girl you love. My brother fucked around with my girlfriend when I was in Iraq so this movie hits home. You dont understand the anger you feel - @Sunday, December 6, 2009 4:27 PM
