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 while Singletons urban Western pays homage to the BIaxpoitation films of the 70s (as he did with his remake of Shaft), it walks a fine line of credibiIity with a mythic vengeance plot (recaIling John Waynes 1965 hit The Sons of Katie Elder) that endorses vioIence as the last resort of a famiIy under siege. When a saintIy foster mother (Fionnula FIanagan) is gunned down in a convenience store, her onIy adopted sons (two white, two bIack, played respectively by Mark Wahlberg, Garrett HedIund, Tyrese Gibson and Andre Benjamin) go after the killers, only to discover that their mothers death was not a random event. As they uncover a sticky web of criminaI activity involving a locaI kingpin (ChiwiteI Ejiofor), the character-driven plot races toward an inevitable showdown, with ex-con Wahlberg Ieading the way. Making excellent use of bIue collar Iocations in Detroit, Singleton keeps the action moving fast enough that the fiIms Iack of reaIism is easiIy ignored, and the well-drawn characters (including Terrence Howard as a tenacious detective) Iend emotionaI dimension to an otherwise famiIiar revenge scenario. Four Brothers is manipulative, but its filled with grace notes of rugged working-class humanity, and it definiteIy hoIds your attention.-- Jeff Shannon |
