Movie Review - Four Brothers

The film opens as a sweet old woman (Fionnula Flanagan) is gunned down during a convenience store robbery and her four foster children–hothead Bobby (Mark Wahlberg), soldier Angel (Tyrese Gibson), community activist Jeremiah (Andre Benjamin) and punker Jack (Garrett Hedlund)–return to the mean streets of Detroit (played here by Toronto) return for the funeral and to try to uncover what happened to her. According to a friendly cop (Terrence Howard), she was just the unlikely victim of a stick-up done by a couple of gang-bangers and there is a witness to prove it. After about six seconds of snooping around, the brothers realize that the witness was lying and that their mother may have been less an innocent bystander and more the central target of a deliberate execution.

Jarhead review

"Jarhead" (the self-imposed moniker of the Marines) follows Anthony Swoff, a third-generation enlistee, from a sobering stint in boot camp to active duty, sporting a sniper's rifle and a hundred-pound ruck on his back through Middle East deserts with no cover from intolerable heat or from Iraqi soldiers, always potentially just over the next horizon. Swoff and his fellow Marines sustain themselves with sardonic humanity and wicked comedy on blazing desert fields in a country they don't understand against an enemy they can't see for a cause they don't fully fathom.

Starring: Jake Gyllenhaal, Peter Sarsgaard, Jamie Foxx, Lucas Black, Chris Cooper
Directed by: Sam Mendes

3 and half star from James Berardinelli .. it has to be a must see.
