荷里活這個花花世界，電影的題材包羅萬有，最熱門的當然是最賣錢的商業片及奪獎保證的劇情片。這個故事屬於劇情類型，但有別於一般的迴腸盪氣的愛情親情片，由故事情節可見，兩兄弟的情誼與兩夫妻的感情會因為時間及環境有所改變，其中以西方人更為普遍，試比較中西方的親情片，中國產(甚至整個亞洲)的影片往往能夠觸動觀眾的心靈，但西方則著重於男女之間的愛情，即使由電影表達出的親情也不免失真，欠了一份真摯。而《Brothers》就屬於典型的西方親情片，但主線因不刻意造作而變得更加自然深刻，導演功夫不俗。
電影在選角方面都不錯，憑《Spider Man》系列紅極一時的Tobey Maguire擔正飾演心態轉變的軍人，以前偏向偶像路線的他，近來接拍較多的商業片，在這偶然的機會下，能夠獲得這個發揮極大的角色，為他打開了一條新的戲路。Natalie Portman被公認為圈中實力派演員，雖然從未得到過Academy Awards，但每一次的角色都栩栩如生，即將在美國上映的《Black Swan》更獲得影評人的賞識，認為她有潛力候選來屆Academy影后。Jake Gyllenhaal則無須多講，自從《Brokeback Mountain》一戲成名後，便多了很多片約，但角色深度平平，所以影響發揮，而此作則令他挽回劣勢，起碼讓更多觀眾留意他在這齣戲的演出，他可算是選對了角色。
其實不只上述三位演員，另外有一些不太重戲份的綠葉都做得不錯，不過不在此逐一品評。假若荷里活那些導演能夠著心籌備一齣親情片，相信本港的戲迷一定會受惠不少，同時亦大飽眼福。
評分：
唔知點解，我總係對呢類既電影有d興趣，明知呢d電影唔會刻意將戲中演員做賣點，但係都好似會好舒服咁，雖然每條劇情線在套電影入面交錯，但係一d都唔覺得好亂，不過對我黎講，呢d戲既主題唔係咁重要lu。
唔好意思，上面張相唔係咁清楚，但係呢一pair係我比較喜歡既一對，因為呢一pair好似幾有劇情follow，兩個演員唔算話太突出，但係都適當地演繹出角色要求。套戲既cast其實唔算強，最出名既都係Bradley Cooper同埋Natalie Portman，兩個演員亦算中規中矩，而呢部戲都有香港人熟悉既面孔：Maggie Q同埋舒淇。
最後套戲在平靜之下落幕，真係冇乜大既迴響。不過，聽講話黎緊同一方式表達既電影《Valentine's Day》仲唔好睇，希望我唔會咁覺得啦。順便借呢度講下今年Academy Awards既感受，基本上所有獎項都實至名歸，不過我真係好想睇到Meryl Streep可以再拎The Best Actress。
