Since its release last week, “Brothers” has quickly climbed to the #1 spot on the Prime Video Top 10. Since its release last week, “Brothers” has quickly climbed to the #1 spot on Prime Video's Top 10 Movies

and is now the #1 film on Prime Video's Top 10 Movies

Given that this is the second feature film from Max Barbakoff, the director of Prime Video's acclaimed sci-fi romance “Palm Springs,” it is not too surprising that “Brothers” has taken off. The problem is... Not many people who checked out the film are singing the praises of director Barbakow's new film. Concerned? Below is more information about “Brothers,” along with a sample of what critics have to say about the Prime Video production.

“Brothers” is a refreshing R-rated road trip comedy that, unsurprisingly, revolves around a pair of brothers.

One is Mork (Josh Brolin), a reformed criminal who now lives an honest life with his wife Abby (Taylor Page). On the other side is his twin brother Juddy (Peter Dinklage), who is “testing his sanity”. He waltzes back into Mork's life after winning early release from prison. Cue legal troubles, gun battles, and drama that will test their relationship... Can the two reconcile before the mission destroys them both?

In addition to Brolin, Dinklage, and Page, the film also stars Glenn Close, Jennifer Landon, Brendan Fraser, and the late M. Emmet Walsh in his final screen appearance.

The general consensus is that “Brothers” should be skipped and look for other films that can be streamed on Prime Video; “Brothers” took the #1 spot from “Killer Heat,” which was also never well received.

At the time of this writing, critics on the review aggregation site Rotten Tomatoes were quite unimpressed with a 41% rating. This is based on 17 reviews, and those ratings definitely lean toward “rotten.” Audience ratings are not much better either, with only 48% on Popcornmeter.

Variety's Peter DeBruge said of “Brothers” that it “resembles countless films made in the past-in this case, from ‘Raising Arizona’ to ‘Logan Lucky’ to the mid-2000s sitcom ”My Name Is Earl.”

In a review in The Hollywood Reporter, Justin Lowe was equally disappointed, writing: “Josh Brolin and Peter Dinklage, in Max Barbakow's second feature, are heavy-chinned (in Dinklage's case, by a handlebar mustache enhanced) and play disproportionate siblings.”

It's not all bad, though: RogerEbert.com critic Matt Zoller Seitz gave “Brothers” 3/4 stars, calling it “hardly entirely bad,” adding: “In fact, it's a pretty good movie, largely thanks to the acting and is much livelier than you might expect, given its concept and formulaic way of getting to the main story points.”
