Brothers

Sam Cahill (Toby McGuire) is a loving husband, father, and brother. Before going off to Afghanistan for the 2nd time, he welcomes home his brother Tommy (Jake Gyllenhaal) from prison. Sam then leaves home once again, leaving his wife Grace (Natalie Portman) and his two children.

While on duty, Sam's helicopter is shot down and all are presumed to be dead, and Sam's family mourns his loss and tries to accept his permanent absence from their lives. Tommy tries to take care of the recently windowed Grace and step in as a father figure for his two nieces. As Tommy does his best to serve as an anchor for their family in his brother's memory, him and Grace find themselves growing together emotionally, but not physically.

What is unknown to these characters is that Sam is in fact alive. He has been captured by the Taliban and has been imprisoned, subjected to trauma and torture, and exposed to the most gruesome of treatment as he is robbed of every last bit of humanity that he owns. On the contrary, ex-prisoner and brother Tommy is gaining back character and strength overseas.

Sam is rescued and much to his family's surprise, the fact that he is alive becomes known to them. He returns home – but much of who he was is left back in the remote mountains of Afghanistan. He is unstable, paranoid, detached from reality, and is possessed by the demons of war. He is convinced that his wife and brother have had intimate relations, and accuses them of it. What will silence the voices in his head? Who will dominate as the male role of the house?

Then what starts off as a story of learning to live and let go of the loss of a loved one; the story of re-building a life - takes a complete unexpected turn.

Critics loved and raved about this movie, and I believe you will too. With the most chilling yet intriguing of story lines, a more-than-believable cast, and 1 hour and 45 minutes of emotional upheaval, you will not want to miss out on a movie of this size.
