Four Brothers (USA) (Paramount) (2005) **1/2Year: 2005iMDB
Director: John Singleton Cast: Mark Wahlberg, Tyrese Gibson, Andre Benjamin, Garret Hedlund
I have not quite figured out if Four Brothers is meant to be taken as a serious drama or just as a semi-mindless adrenaline rush like John Singleton's previous 2 Fast 2 Furious. The movie is somewhere in between and the story of four deliquent brothers looking to find why their adoptive saintly mother was murdered maintains its dramatic credibility for about... 5 minutes. However the movie, while forgettable, manages to be entertaining, with tongue-in-cheek replies and random violence in the style of an old Western.
