When a decorated Marine goes missing overseas, his black-sheep younger brother cares for his wife and children at home—with consequences that will shake the foundation of the entire family.

"Brothers" tells the powerful story of two siblings, thirtysomething Captain Sam Cahill (Tobey Maguire) and younger brother Tommy Cahill (Jake Gyllenhaal), who are polar opposites. A Marine about to embark on his fourth tour of duty, Sam is a steadfast family man married to his high school sweetheart, the aptly named Grace (Natalie Portman), with whom he has two young daughters (Bailee Madison, Taylor Grace Geare). Tommy, his charismatic younger brother, is a drifter just out of jail who's always gotten by on wit and charm. He slides easily into his role as family provocateur on his first night out of prison, at Sam's farewell dinner with their parents, Elsie (Mare Winningham) and Hank Cahill (Sam Shepard), a retired Marine.

Shipped out to Afghanistan, Sam is presumed dead when his Black Hawk helicopter is shot down in the mountains. At home in suburbia, the Cahill family suddenly faces a shocking void, and Tommy tries to fill in for his brother by assuming newfound responsibility for himself, Grace, and the children.

But Sam is not dead; he and a fellow soldier have been captured by Taliban fighters. In Afghanistan's harsh, remote Pamir Mountains, Sam is subjected to traumas that threaten to rob him of his very humanity. At the same time that Sam's sense of self is being destroyed overseas, Tommy's self-image is strengthening at home. And in the grief and strangeness of their new lives, Grace and Tommy are naturally drawn together. Their longstanding frostiness dissolves, but both are frightened and ashamed of the mutual attraction that has replaced it.

When Sam unexpectedly returns to the States, a nervous mood settles over the family. Sam, uncharacteristically withdrawn and volatile, grows suspicious of his brother and his wife. Their familiar roles now nearly reversed, Sam and Tommy end up facing the ultimate physical and mental challenge when they confront each other. In the shifting family dynamics, who will dominate? And how will the brothers come to terms with issues of love, loyalty, and manhood—and with the woman caught between them?

  • This movie touched me emotionally because my uncle has Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome! :(

  • best movie..worth to watch it in webmovietube

  • what a movie..watched 5 times in webmovietube

  • No I haven't. And based on this trailer, it's blatantly obvious she fucked him. Otherwise it's false advertising, and that's fucking stupid.

  • @MaoiMeowi2

    you havent seen the movie have you?

    they only kissed one time and both felt like crap for it. ... if you havent seen it i recommend it, if you have than you didnt understand the movie, i had to rewind to see where in the movie it showed that they screwed cuz i was confused with the little girls comment at the birthday party

  • Eh...WHICH INCLUDES his wife fucking his brother.

  • @MaoiMeowi2 this movie has nothing to do with him thinking his wife slept with his brother, its a view of the life of our men and women post war. what they go through once they get home... heart wrenching movie... that whole scene where he looses his freaken mind had me crying till the end... LOVED IT!
