Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

superindrajit It isn't rare for a Bollywood film to be a remake of a popular Hollywood movie. If there is anything rare, it is when a Bollywood remake clicks well and is appreciated. Brothers(2015) is an official remake of Warrior and it tries very hard to stand out. Unfortunately, Brothers does not make much of an impact. It has brilliant choreographed action sequences, good performances, and amazing songs but this is far from enough. When the trailers came out, one was expecting a well made remake but the hype was not matched.The main problem with Brothers is that it fails to display the emotions effectively. Warrior did a good job at displaying the right emotions and ensuring that it does not go overboard. Brothers falters here because it becomes way too melodramatic. The emotions do work but at times, it becomes unbearable. When the melodrama goes overboard, watching Brothers becomes a very tepid experience. Jackie Shroff's character has not been well handled in the initial scenes; he is made to cry inconsolably. These scenes are supposed to be powerful but they do not create a strong impact. Nick Nolte had acted these scenes without hamming but Jackie Shroff is forced to mess it up terribly. I did not understand why Akshay Kumar's on-screen daughter was nicknamed PooPoo. This caused unintentionally comedy when it should have been an emotional scene related to the girl's illness.Brothers successfully scores in showing the relationship between the young Akshay and Siddharth. Their relationship is well explored. Those flashback scenes stand out until Jackie Shroff's character is made to shout and create a mess. Brothers also works in terms of the action sequences. The MMA fight scenes are good and keep the audience entertained after a highly melodramatic first half. The training montage scenes are fantastic. To sum it up, the screenplay is faulty and Karan Malhotra's direction is nothing great. It is time he directs a movie which is not a remake.A major saving grace for Brothers is the music. Ajay-Atul have done a great job as most of the songs stand out. The Brothers Anthem create a powerful impact during the training montage scenes; Vishal Dadlani croons the song superbly. Gaaye Ja is a slow but soulful song. Sonu Nigam's Sapna Jahan is beautiful song which is my favorite. The only song that does not work is Mera Naam Mary. Kareena Kapoor scorches the screen by exposing her body but the lyrics are cheap. In addition, such a song should not exist for a movie which was promoted as one of good content.Akshay Kumar has given a superb performance. He can be seen as the crusader in this jungle in which most others ham it up. Siddharth Malhotra has not impressed much. He has tried his best and is functional for the most part. Jackie Shroff is decent until he has to scream and shout. This makes his performance average and the screenplay can be blamed for this. Jacqueline Fernandez does not have much to do and is passable. Shefali Shah is a small role and she does well. Kiran Kumar is funny but he hams it up as well. Ashtosh Rana has some good moments but an actor of his caliber can do so much more. The rest provide decent support.On the whole, Brothers fails to be a solid remake of Warrior. It is at best an average film with some merits. At the box office, the film opened big but failed to sustain. Once again, it has been proved that Bollywood cannot make good Hollywood remakes consistently.

dwaipayan771994 When i heard brother will be directed by karan malhotra i was happy cause he did fine job in agneepath but same thing never happens all time . Warrior was a great film by story and acting, akshay did a fine job but sidhart loose the part front of tom hardy i know tom hardy nailed that part was expecting sidhart will do good but it's like i was watching Ek villain when i saw siddhart's acting in this film .the director only focused on the fight scene which was very good in this film but except akhsay and jackie all other character was not established well . what siddhart character do after the death of his mother nothing have shown here , whish was shown in warrior . One more thing if u have cried at the climax of warrior then you will be disappointed after watching this film climax .

Rowdy Fab A Must watch Movie Specially for all Fighter lovers. Very Hard Work done By Akshay Kumar, Siddharth Malhotra and team to make this movie. in one movie there is Family Emotion, which is back bone of the movie, there is fight, there is Love for Child, Love for Wife, love for mother... Really the Must Watch movie... It's Also an inspiring and Motivating Movie! it contains beautiful Songs. A emotional song 'Gaye Jaa', A motivational Song 'Brothers Anthem', a Love Song 'Sapna Jahan' and one more Song by Kareena Kapoor Khan 'Mera Naam Mary'. Really the audience was impressed by the movie and in every fight there was huge clap and whistles. The Climax was Tearjerker! Really impressed!!!!!!!!!!

samiem41 I would have loved to give negative rating. I don't understand which kind of people have voted good for this movie. This is a nightmare movie which can only give you headache. Only show this movie to your enemies. This is the first review of mine, found a option to include spoiler..Let me tell, there is nothing called spoiler in this movie. The entire movie was a spoiler. Disgusting is the word which I would say.Waste story, waste acting. Someone said that second half is good, hence i waited like a fool for good part.Even if you subtract 2:25 mins from this movie. That 5 min is still intolerable. Nothing just nothing at all is good.Its one epic from bollywood like "Jhoom barabar jhoom, AAG " People should use this movie against criminals to torture them, nuffin more than that.
