Review of Brother

"Hermano" was a very interesting film, and was something that I had never seen before. The reason why I enjoyed this film, is that it showed the bond between family such as siblings, who are dedicated and committed to achieve the same goals and want to do it together. The actors in the film in my opinion played their role very well, even though the movie was violent, like most American movies are, this film is not like most American films , because it has a different plot , whereas American films base off of the same idea. Daniel and Julio are raised together being brothers, and try to escape the slums by committing to soccer, they were both dedicated and talented players, and throughout the movie have a strong relationship, because of it. Daniel really cares for Julio and their mom especially since they were the ones who saved him when he was an infant, so throughout the movie he has a very good relationship with them,and it was really nice to see that in the film. Once the tragic moment occurs in the film, Daniel is not willing to give up, he keeps on trying to stay motivated, especially because soccer might bring him and his brother Julio to a successful life, but even though he tried to stay positive after the incident, it was very hard for him to control his emotional feelings, and this is what got him to act in a certain way, which therefore caused the plot to happen. The main reason why I would not rate this film a 10/10 is because the ending of the film threw me off a bit. Overall I would say it was a good film, but would it give this a 3/5 stars.
