Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

Greatly entertaining film. Funny, dramatic, and always interesting…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Keith Cohen (225) for Entertainment Spectrum (633) on 28 May 2009

This globe-trotting romantic comedy is like going on a scavenger hunt where the fun is in the journey…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Eric Melin (822) for Scene-Stealers.com (667) on 28 May 2009

It's as much about society's need for a well-told story as it is about an emotional connection between its characters…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By James Kendrick (1,607) for Q Network Film Desk (1,607) on 28 May 2009

A confident and even touching bit of genre twisting, with its best moments providing plenty of anticipation for what else Johnson has up his sleeve…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Robert W. Butler (884) for Kansas City Star (1,573) on 28 May 2009

It's diverting for an hour or so, but one tires of all this forced playfulness long before the final reveal…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Amy Nicholson (961) for I.E. Weekly (269) on 27 May 2009

The Brothers Bloom is to precocious adventure movies what Crank is to action throwdowns; it finds the genre's limit and doubles it…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Brian Orndorf (4,059) for BrianOrndorf.com (1,055) on 27 May 2009

Johnson's lube of choice is whimsy, and as the filmmaker pours an endless stream of cutesy behaviors and larger-than-life screenwriting into…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Jeff Vice (1,455) for Deseret News (Salt Lake City) (1) on 27 May 2009

It probably takes a particular sensibility to really enjoy and appreciate The Brothers Bloom…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Steve Ramos (98) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 27 May 2009

A fun, fast-paced and fashionable caper adventure, and a worthy homage to such classic thievery comedies as Topkapi…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Joe Williams (923) for St. Louis Post-Dispatch (1,715) on 27 May 2009

Although it's got a strong cast and visual panache, Johnson willfully dispenses with the caper complications that might have made it more fun…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Tony Macklin (521) for tonymacklin.net (414) on 26 May 2009

The Brothers Bloom jerks us around without end. The cons and twists pile up like debris…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Roger Moore (6,008) for Orlando Sentinel (1,594) on 26 May 2009

It's all a con, but thanks to Johnson's way with characters and dialogue, we don't mind the hustle so long as we're rewarded along the way…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Chris Hewitt (2,086) for St. Paul Pioneer Press (4,360) on 21 May 2009

What saves the day is Johnson's bold, bananas style, which is equal parts Fellini and Teletubby…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 21 May 2009

Notable mostly for its ultra-cutesy style, which smothers the convoluted tale in visual and verbal affectation so heavy that you almost choke on it…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Karina Longworth (242) for SpoutBlog (66) on 21 May 2009

If Johnson doesn't reinvent the con man wheel, he pulls off a magic act in the romance department, reinvigorating the fiction that first love…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Linda Barnard (586) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 21 May 2009

It's not blockbuster material, but this clever picture is a romantic -- and genuinely amusing -- charmer…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) (2,277) for St. Paul Pioneer Press (4,360) on 21 May 2009

What saves the day is Johnson's bold, bananas style, which is equal parts Fellini and Teletubby…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Colin Covert (1,936) for Minneapolis Star Tribune (2,416) on 21 May 2009

The leads have zero comedic skills, but you can tell they're being funny because they all wear sarcastic hats…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Liz Braun (961) for Jam! Movies (2,396) on 21 May 2009

The dialogue is quick and funny, and so are the visuals…

Review of The Brothers Bloom (2008)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 20 May 2009
