'The Sisters Brothers': Unusual and Compelling . . .

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

The always fussing Sisters Brothers were killers for the Commodore who had been assigned to run down and kill a man who held a gold prospecting invention. Eli (Reilly) was the sane and nearly sober brother watching out for Charlie (Phonenix) the aggressive drunk who enjoyed their killer reputation. The Commodore (Hauer) had assigned a scout (Gyllenhaal) to follow and deliver Warm (Ahmed) to the brothers for killing.

This film is rich with character development, sly humor, gun fighting, greed, and Eli's struggle to leave their life of crime. Karol Kane appears as their mom in a very touching, bittersweet ending.

Even though this story is chock full of the classic Western hallmarks, I still felt this was an unusual and off-beat film.
