Absurd Emotional Hype - "brothers"

The long-awaited borthers "Brothers" is finished. . how to say. I'm a little disappointed. I have been following this film since I knew that the three leading actors in the film were all my favorites. Later, I saw the trailer, the effect was very good, and the editing was very tight. But watching this video today was really disappointing. I don't know how the director made it. The plot is not compact at all and the cohesion is very rigid, and the plot explained is messy. Sam's departure and return are both very confusing. sam was sloppy in his account during his capture, but the escape from the dead was even more unexpected in terms of plot, and in my opinion, the screenwriter is dereliction of duty here. . And what happened after that has nothing to do with the emotional connection of the characters, which is far-fetched.
But some details are still very good, such as the difference between Grace's kiss on Sam's back before and after the battle. And Tommy's hug with his brother when he was released from prison, and the hug with his brother when he came back from the war seems to have something to say. .
Compared with "Escort Chance", which was also a U.S. military film at the beginning of the year, this film is indeed average, and the characters in "Escort Chance" are not emotionally restrained and not moving. The trauma of the U.S. military after the war was not well described, and the emotions between the family and brothers were not handled properly, and the director's own intentions were not well expressed.
The role of tommy is the younger brother of sam in the film. At the beginning of the film, he came out of prison and started a new life. I think Jake Gyllenhaal is a great actor, but he is an honest and good man in terms of image, even if the acting is handled It's relatively okay, but I really can't feel his ruffian appearance, so the process of "rehabilitating evil and returning to righteousness" doesn't feel much. . . However, the director handled the process of his involvement in the broken family left by his brother well, at least he did not make the mistake of "love comes and goes quickly" in Pearl Harbor. . . The relationship between tommy and grace is still very subtle. Grace's dislike of Tommy from the beginning to slowly accepting it still gave the audience a process. .
Natalie doesn't feature much in the film. . . Most of the time I watched the film for her, and it was nothing special. .
Among the three leading actors, Toby's performance is still the most worthy of recognition. He killed his comrade-in-arms under the pressure of the militants (remember, the film has no brains here, the plot is very far-fetched). . . The entangled human nature after "Near Death" obviously comes from the war, the guilt of killing a comrade-in-arms, and the loss of trust in family members, the characters are still well played emotionally, especially the last climax, everyone can pay attention.
In addition, the most worth mentioning in the film are the two young actors, especially Bailee Madison who plays Isabelle, who is so mature and outstanding at such a young age, a rising star~~~~ In
conclusion, this film has absolutely no I expected good, barely 7.6 points.
