Brothers

Year: 2009

Why'd I Watch It?: I was having a Jake Gyllenhaal marathon.

What's It About?: A soldier goes back to Afghanistan and sees bad stuff and his good-for-nothing brother takes care of his hot wife and two kids while he's gone.

What'd I Think?: I didn't know Tobey Maguire had it in him to freak out so hard and so well. I really like him in almost everything he's in (dammit, Spiderman 3), and he's always done a good job with his roles. So when I say he was even better in this one, believe me. In fact, everyone was really good. Now I need to see the original Danish film.
