Editorial Review:
Product Description: Marine's wife takes up with her husband's brother.
Amazon.com: Screenwriter David Benioff (The 25th Hour) didn't have to do much to relocate Brothers from Denmark to America. The story remains the same: Captain Sam Cahill (Tobey Maguire) loves his family, but he's equally devoted to his career. Just as his ne'er-do-well brother, Tommy (Jake Gyllenhaal), exits prison, where he did time for robbery, the Marines deploy Sam to Afghanistan. Tommy starts looking in on his wary sister-in-law, Grace (Natalie Portman), but then Sam's helicopter crashes in the mountains, and the military informs Grace that her husband has died. Unbeknownst to the Cahill clan, the Taliban has taken Sam hostage and tortures him to elicit information. Sam resists, but his colleague caves, leading to an unthinkable act. Back in New Mexico, Grace and Tommy grow closer, stopping just short of a full-blown affair (in Susanne Bier's original, they take the plunge). Even Tommy's disapproving Vietnam vet father, Hank (Sam Shepard), sees his son in a new light after Tommy renovates Grace's kitchen. But when Sam is rescued by his company, he returns a broken man and is convinced that his wife has fallen in love with his brother. Even his daughters are afraid of him (Bailee Madison impresses as the eldest). As in Bier's film, Jim Sheridan (In America) elevates redemption and forgiveness over tragedy and loss, and his well-meaning remake gets off to a solid start, but it loses steam by the end. Brothers offers a compelling scenario, but the telling is too overstated to capture the full heartbreak of the situation. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

"Brothers" was directed by Jim Sheridan, director of "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" in 2005 and is based on the motion picture "Brødre" from Denmark. The story is about two brothers, Tommy and Sam played by Tobey Maguire and Jake Gyllenhaal. Sam is the good son, a marine deployed to Afghanistan and Tommy has always been a bit of a screw-up and just got out of jail. While Sam is gone, Tommy attempts to take care of Sam's wife, Grace played by Natalie Portman and their daughters.

This movie was very intersting, however, I was extremely disgusted with the way Hollywood originally marketed it--as a thriller--in the previews leading up to its release. I couldn't wait to see this movie when it first came out off that alone. It was almost billed as a Fatal Attraction-esque movie from the previews alone: Widow becomes romantically entangled with her dead husband's brother only to find out that he isn't dead at all and they try to conceal their relationship until he discovers the truth ...

I saw this film in the theatres and thought it was amazing!
Not only is it timely, but it's one of those stories which could actually happen,
which gives it even more gravity. Tobey Maguire gives what I think is one of the
best performances of his career...so far!
He just oozes all the right emotions to bring this character to life in a way
that leaps off the screen!---He's intense in this!!
Jake Gyllenhaal is also great as the well-intentioned brother who tries to

This film is Oscar worthy! Tobey McGuire should have received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor!
Coming from a military family (USMC) this movie truly hit home.
