Title: Four Brothers
Post by: MacGuffin on May 25, 2005, 09:44:01 PM
Exclusive Poster Premiere: Four Brothers
The final one-sheet for the Mark Wahlberg-Tyrese Gibson flick.
 
Currently scheduled for release on August 12 is the crime drama Four Brothers. The film tells the story of four adopted brothers who reunite when they come to bury the kindly woman who raised them. Upon further investigation, they find that their foster mother may have been the victim of murder, and these four brothers want revenge.

The titular four brothers are played by Mark Wahlberg (I Heart Huckabees), Tyrese Gibson (Flight of the Phoenix), Andre "3000" Benjamin (Be Cool), and Garrett Hedlund (Friday Night Lights).

John Singleton (Shaft, Boyz n the Hood) directs from a script by David Elliot (The Watcher) and Paul Lovett. Four Brothers reunites Singleton for the third time with singer-turned-actor Tyrese after their efforts in 2001's Baby Boy and 2003's 2 Fast 2 Furious.

Today we've got an exclusive first look at the final one-sheet for Four Brothers:

Three out of the four cast members made crappy music and are now actors. This really seems below Wahlberg. He has usually been very good at picking scripts so maybe he knows something we don't. But Singleton is trash to me nowadays. Wait and see, ya know?

Yeah, they are trash now. Is there even an outkast anymore? I don't think they are a group anymore.

Hey this was good. Lame villain but still. The kind of movie you can go see with your non-cinephile friends that you and they will like. So  :yabbse-thumbup:

The script forgot where it was going with each new sequence.  Could have been better.

Considering John Singleton could have been much worst than better though

Four Brothers is to Mystic River as Scary Movie is to Scream.  Except unintentionally so.

I just saw this and I thought it was good. It had many cliches and bad writing, but I wasnt expecting anything else.

Mark Whalberg to me is always good... I mean he has good roles... from Dirk Diggler, to Dingam, to Rock Star and Huckabees... I love the guy.

Also, I bought it for $4.99 so who cares...
