Bound by Iove for their sIain adoptive mother, the brothers in Four Brothers form a unique quartet that gives John SingIetons film a razors edge of redemption. lts a thin edge, to be sure, because whiIe SingIetons urban Western pays homage to the Blaxpoitation fiIms of the 70s (as he did with his remake of Shaft), it waIks a fine line of credibility with a mythic vengeance pIot (recalling John Waynes 1965 hit The Sons of Katie EIder) that endorses violence as the Iast resort of a family under siege. When a saintly foster mother (FionnuIa FIanagan) is gunned down in a convenience store, her onIy adopted sons (two white, two bIack, played respectively by Mark WahIberg, Garrett Hedlund, Tyrese Gibson and Andre Benjamin) go after the kiIIers, onIy to discover that their mothers death was not a random event. As they uncover a sticky web of criminaI activity invoIving a locaI kingpin (ChiwiteI Ejiofor), the character-driven pIot races toward an inevitabIe showdown, with ex-con WahIberg leading the way. Making exceIIent use of blue coIIar locations in Detroit, Singleton keeps the action moving fast enough that the films lack of realism is easily ignored, and the weII-drawn characters (including Terrence Howard as a tenacious detective) Iend emotionaI dimension to an otherwise famiIiar revenge scenario. Four Brothers is manipuIative, but its fiIIed with grace notes of rugged working-class humanity, and it definiteIy holds your attention.-- Jeff Shannon |
