Brothers: Josh Brolin and Peter Dinklage in an action comedy on Prime Video

On October 17, 2024, Prime Video unveils Brothers, an action-comedy with an impressive cast, including Josh Brolin(Avengers: Endgame) and Peter Dinklage(Game of Thrones). Directed by Max Barbakow(Palm Springs), the film is written by Macon Blair and Etan Cohen, known for their work on gritty comedies. Glenn Close, Brendan Fraser and Taylour Paige complete a promising cast. This story follows two brothers with explosive personalities on a journey where dark humor and emotional moments intertwine with shootouts and outrageous situations.

In Brothers, Josh Brolin plays an ex-criminal trying to turn his life around after years of illegality. However, his plans for redemption are compromised when he is forced to reconnect with his twin brother, played by Peter Dinklage, whose fragile mental health further complicates matters. The two brothers find themselves plunged into a road-trip across the United States, where they must confront not only the forces of law and order, but also their own family demons. Against a backdrop of ill-prepared heists and wild chases, the two men attempt to repair their relationship before it ends in bloodshed. All under the critical eye of an invasive mother played by Glenn Close.

Brothers is aimed at adult fans of action comedies combining dramatic tension and absurdist humor. If you've enjoyed films like Bon à Tirer (B.A.T.) or Les Frères Sisters, you'll probably find something to your liking in this new adventure. The film stands out for the chemistry between Josh Brolin and Peter Dinklage, two actors renowned for their ability to play complex, charismatic characters. What's more, the addition of Glenn Close as the overbearing mother promises memorable moments and explosive family dynamics. This blend of road movie, black comedy and sibling drama is reminiscent of the Coen brothers' best work, with a wackier twist.
