Two Brothers Reviews
Stunningly beautiful, but too intense for little kids.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 29, 2010
This is a family movie on a grand scale, enhanced by lush cinematography and throbbing music, with a minimum of dialogue and an endless assortment of thrills.

It's undoubtedly good-natured, old-fashioned family entertainment, but Two Brothers never quite manages to strike a successful balance between fantasy and reality.

The kind of movie that kids used to flock to on Saturday afternoons in the forties and fifties.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 3, 2004
Noteworthy because it represents a kind of fevered moviemaking insanity that we rarely see these days.

... one of the most amazing animal adventure fables ever captured on film.

I would have gladly volunteered to lead all the tigers participating in this movie directly into the wilds, just to stop them 'acting' in this slow-moving, heavy-handed drama.

The movie can be taken as quality children's entertainment ... But the film offers much more than that.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 25, 2004
Impeccably well-crafted, kid-friendly and downright cuddly.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 25, 2004
A beautiful film, but it's also a troubled one.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 25, 2004
Two Brothers may not be a great movie, but it's an unusually diverting episode of Wild Kingdom.

You don't have to be a cat-lover to fall in love with the cuddly young tigers who star in Two Brother.

Although special effects and careful editing pitch in, the wild-kingdom authenticity on display is an astonishing achievement.

Two Brothers is the kind of movie that makes me optimistic for the future of family films.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 25, 2004
Two Brothers is an odd crossbreed: documentary-style nature film, broad comedy, environmental sermon and Disney wannabe. But the awesome aww-power of its irresistible tiger cubs smooths its unevenness.

An enjoyable, Kipling-esque adventure.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 25, 2004
There is a lot in Two Brothers I admire. Families will not go wrong in attending this film. Some kids will think it's one of the best movies they've seen. My objections are of a sort that won't occur, I realize, to many of the viewers.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 25, 2004
The Bear was a little too cutesy for my taste, but director Jean-Jacques Annaud gets the tone right this time.
