Way back in July we posted a trailer (since pulled by Lions Gate) from Brothers, the Jim Sheridan (My Left Foot, The Boxer) directed remake of the Danish film by Susanne Bier, Brodre . This one stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Tobey Maguire, and Natalie Portman, and we now (via Yahoo) gets a new trailer.
Brothers hits theaters on December 4th.
Can’t wait for this movie to come out. Anybody seen the original “Brothers”? I wonder if it’s at all similar?
I am a big fan of the Danish original so I was a little skeptical that the American version could live up to it, but it exceeded my expectations. Great direction by Sheridan and not as overly-sentimental as it might have been.”
‘Brothers’ truly was loaded with good stuff, from acting to cinematography to the overall storytelling quality, it rocked
It’s a really good interpretation of the original. It doesn’t do it justice to call it a “remake.” The acting is captivating and the script is well adapted with the proper adjustments to make it all the more relevant to current American audiences. Classic American cinema at it’s finest.
