Brothers tells the story of a reformed criminal (Josh Brolin) whose attempt at going straight is derailed when he reunites with his sanity-testing twin brother (Peter Dinklage) on a cross-country road trip for the score of a lifetime. Dodging bullets, the law, and an overbearing mother along the way, they must heal their severed family bond before they end up killing each other.

Unfortunately, these antics aren’t enough to liven up a script that’s mostly formula.

The quirkiest thing about it is how much of that time it spends accidentally calling attention to its own overwritten, under-thought weaknesses.

Rated: 2/5

TheWrap

Brothers takes a tediously familiar comedy story structure and hangs some genuinely interesting characters and performances on it. It’s like a Frankenstein monster made out of Raising Arizona and Dumb and Dumber To.

Common Sense Media

This caper comedy relies on a well-worn story—all the way down to the "one last job and I'm out" cliché—but the excellent cast goes all in on their oversized performances, and it's a lot of fun.

Rated: 3/5

For the Win (USA Today)

If you want to turn your brain off for just a bit and enjoy a studio comedy with good actors and wily creative minds behind the camera, Brothers is an oasis in the desert.

Screen Rant

An impressive cast can't save road movie caper Brothers from its biggest issue: it's just a little too dull.

Rated: 4/10

Left early. Expected more from Josh Brolin. Not sure how he bought on to that movie.

'Brothers'... not the best. I wanted to enjoy it given I like those involved, but it really does fall flat and, despite a small run time, it doesn't flow well either. Peter Dinklage and Josh Brolin are OK together, chuck in Brendan Fraser & Glenn Close and it's a good cast... on paper. In reality, I didn't sense much from any of those on the screen and they have all produced far better. You also have Max Barbakow in the directing chair, the same can be said for him as it is safe to say this isn't the best follow-up for him after the excellent 'Palm Springs'.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
