faceless_entityFeb 19, 2021Pointless trip. Pointless movie. Pointless comedy. Pointless moral of the story. Pointless father. Pointless ending. Pointless characters. Shout out to the goat, he was a better parent than the father.

I'm objectively biased for these little Spanglish movies. The cross-border themes always work for me. I'm sympathetic to the family complications it can create. I spend a lot of time with loved ones who ARE a blend of two cultures, and frequently DO speak Spanglish, so the…

"Don't you wanna know how this story ends?" - Asher Murguia See where it ranks among my Top Films of 2020 and click here! Well, this is about what I expected and not at the same time. History can often repeat itself. A father physically abandons his family to…
Michael CoxJan 1, 2022Estuvo muy buena, me alegra mucho que Luis Gerardo Méndez este teniendo esta clase ee proyectos, proyectos donde mueve más lo dramático por delante de lo cómico. Hay comedia y la disfrute, el compa que hace de Asher me cae muy bien, pensé que será un típico personaje…

EPErica PinegarThis was a great movie! It was funny & yet it had a great message & helped the audience see things from a different perspective! I'd highly recommend it! P.S. It has some questionable language.

I’d say Half Brothers half works, but that’s unjustifiably generous.

There’s much to like about the road-trip comedy Half Brothers. It’s funny, smart, topical and even touching at times. But it’s hard to overcome the inescapable rot at its center.

There is an intentionality here that is overwhelmingly optimistic while also insisting on acknowledging all of the troubles of our current moment. And while this does not always mix well with some of the slapstick, the alchemy is ultimately fulfilling.
