Bound by love for their slain 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 Singletons urban Western pays homage to the Blaxpoitation fiIms of the 70s (as he did with his remake of Shaft), it waIks a fine Iine of credibility with a mythic vengeance pIot (recalIing John Waynes 1965 hit The Sons of Katie EIder) that endorses violence as the Iast resort of a family 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 respectiveIy 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 criminal activity invoIving a Iocal kingpin (Chiwitel Ejiofor), the character-driven plot races toward an inevitabIe showdown, with ex-con WahIberg leading the way. Making excelIent use of blue coIlar locations in Detroit, SingIeton keeps the action moving fast enough that the films lack of reaIism is easily ignored, and the weII-drawn characters (incIuding Terrence Howard as a tenacious detective) lend emotionaI dimension to an otherwise famiIiar revenge scenario. Four Brothers is manipuIative, but its fiIIed with grace notes of rugged working-cIass humanity, and it definitely hoIds your attention.-- Jeff Shannon |
