The chracters keep saying they're a family, but you never feel too much like they are. That said, the action scenes and some of the interactions between the characters make this movie a fun time.

Four Brothers is an emotionally driven film. Not from the actors, but from the audience. Most of the actors phoned it in, despite the characters needing to show emotion for most of the film. The characters are interesting enough though, and you get a good sense of the brotherly bond that they share, even if they aren't blood-related. Ultimately, Four Brothers is a fun revenge flick, containing interesting characters and entertaining action sequences.

The four adopted sons (Mark Wahlberg, Tyrese Gibson, Andre Benjamin, Garrett Hedlund) of a community saint work together to try to discover and punish those who killed her. Rated "R" for action violence, profanity, and sexual situations (including brief nudity and simulated sexual intercourse).

When 4 brothers consist of upcoming hunky actor like Garret Hedlund or familiar face such as Mark Wahlberg and hip-hop star
Andre"3000"Benjamin,hearing their names alone were even enough for some to see this movie. although this was above-average action flick,if not that great.the first several minutes felt warmth and modest as these brothers showed their real bonds.It acted pretty decent with Wahlberg carried both the action and drama.It was a slightly above average action of brotherhood.

I like a good revenge flick and this works just fine. It's easy enough to pick holes in this movie if you want to. In particular there is some quite shoddy editing, and Fionnula Flanagan again proves herself to be a terrible actress, with the scenes where the brothers imagine their late mother just awful. That said it is all still fairly enjoyable, and even though this film leaves you with a feeling that it could have been a lot better, by and large it works well as a simple revenge caper.

When I see Jason Statham, I know how he will kick ass. When I saw here M.Wahlberg, I knew how will he swear and same goes for T.Gibson's 'nigga asskicker' attitude(watch any other film with him in it and you'll see what I'm on about). So I already knew half of the movie when I saw cast. Other half is mediocre action and family vendetta.

"I didn't come back here for the funeral," explains the Wahlberg brother, making clear right off the bat that this is to be a tale of revenge, a pursuit undertaken with a singular lack of strategy and diplomacy. Major assets, let's count them, are multiple: unselfconscious and unselfcongratulatory racial togetherness (to get the redeeming social merit out of the way first); a hurtling pace, albeit a bit lurching, leaping, and bumping; crisp photography; tangy dialogue ... more besides

A lot of fun. The movie works as a neo-Western revenge tale. The plot arc is nothing to write home about, but the action sequences are thrilling, and the principal actors have a chemistry that makes things very enjoyable. Helps that they're given a supporting cast loaded with talented character actors, but Terrence Howard is wasted in a small role. Still, it's a fun ride that I would definitely watch again.

It's strange that this film isn't credited as the rip-off of The Sons of Katie Elder that it is. The inspiration is very clear. That being said, this adaptation updates the story from the Old West to Detroit. There's somewhat of a retro '70s vibe to the proceedings. My main gripe with this film is that the dynamic between the eponymous brothers is not very authentic and none of the characters are particularly likable.

Though it is a bit romanticized in that Hollywood sorta way, it's still pretty gritty and brutal. The lead performances are all entertaining if not exactly expertly acted. And while it isn't deep or profound, it isn't really trying as hard to be as some of Singleton's other work. It's mostly just cool action.
