Feels like a nervous student's heavily footnoted thesis film.August 12, 2005
As long as the action snaps and the violence feels (somewhat) righteous, there'll always be a place for movies such as Four Brothers -- on rainy Saturdays, on TNT.August 12, 2005
If Four Brothers spent half as much energy making us feel something for its heroes as it spent making us feel nothing for their victims, it would be a far better, and far more engaging, film.August 16, 2005
Unremarkably schizophrenic -- half gritty sojourn into the inner-city furnace, half Hollywood brain death.August 12, 2005
Loud, stupid, unrealistic, overdone, without a thought in its ugly little head and kind of enjoyable.July 10, 2007

[Director] Singleton is back in rare form with a very good remake...March 22, 2011
Four Brothers tries to mix the revenge quest with the drama of the four boys finding and learning about each other again. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.February 21, 2006
A healty mixture of action, humor and sentiment...one of the most sheerly enjoyable popcorn movies of the summer.August 15, 2005
Four Brothers is a violent, macho story with a perfect feel for the dynamics between four tough guys who will do anything for each other.August 12, 2005
The sometimes absurd Brothers works only on a larger-than-life level. But on that level, the zest is back.
