Notes: 
Storyline Heading
Smart, successful and sexy, Jackson, Brian, Derrick and Terry are “The Brothers”- lifelong friends banded together to weather love’s innate terrors and occasional triumphs in this brazenly comic yet painfully true exploration of the battle between the sexes. “The Brothers” love women, as many as possible, but a shocking revelation tests their friendship and changes their dating habits forever.
.
Movie Type (Genre) Heading
Romantic Comedy - Adult audiences, male and female, should enjoy this sweet and funny comedy. The frequent and fairly explicit sex talk make the film inappropriate for children.

Critic's Review Heading
Good
With its basic premise of L.A.-based group of African-American male friends bonding in the wake one of their members’ impending nuptials, Gary Hardwick’s The Brothers has been quickly dismissed as a rip of The Wood, Rick Famuyiwa’s sleeper of a couple of summers ago. But if the two films are all that similar in any way (and, for the record, they really aren’t), it’s in their laid-back style and warm heart.

OPINION GRAPH

OPINION OVERVIEW
The following is the original "What's Worth Watching" write-up for this movie.

Moviegoer Opinions:
These are some VERY high opinions! Nearly everyone enjoyed "The Brothers." Looking at the opinion graph, you see that the majority rated it either "Excellent" or "Fantastic." I don't recall seeing this before. This is obviously a movie MOST people are going to LOVE. As with all movies, there will be a few of you who don't care for it. But, it should be only a very few, according to these opinions.

I would feel confident in highly recommending this movie to everyone. It was very funny and entertaining. However, this is a VERY sexual story and I suspect that fact is what caused most, if not all, the low opinions given. Be SURE to read the detailed content before seeing this movie. If what you read doesn't bother you, BY ALL MEANS SEE THIS MOVIE!
