The Brothers Bloom

The Brothers Bloom (2008) - Posters — The Movie Database (TMDb)

When a movie is based on a curiosity enthralling plot, has talented lead actors, big-budget and production value, exotic locations you would expect it to be good. The Brothers Bloom has all that but lamentably is still a pretty miserable movie. The storytelling is extremely frustrating and even an absorbing setting and idea fails to create enough captivating scenes. Dialogues and character writing are average at best  and you through the second half you keep waiting for it to get good and it doesn't until the ending

Highs: Ends really well and brings closure to its fairish characters. Location and production value feel of good quality and adds value to the project.

Lows: Acting does not impress from the entire team which is a shame for a talented cast. Scene sequencing and pacing are impeding and lack of energy throughout is evident. The first half feels very confusing and you can tell really early that this is going to be a bumpy ride.

Rating: 2**
