Two Brothers Reviews

[Highly rated reviewer]

superb.........

this is a superb action packed, heart warming story about two tiger cubs, who are taken away from their mother and about the lives they lead afterwards. The music is lovely, and the photography is awe inspiring. however this film might upset young children because there are disturbing scenes of mistreatment of the tigers, that seem very real. parental control is a must.

The extras on the DVD are excellent. There is a half hour documentary on the lives of Tigers and loads of featurettes covering the making of the movie.

well worth renting out.

Lovely film

I absolutely loved this film whilst sad it is also happy, it is a bit of tear jerker. The tigers are fantastic in it. I sat and watched it one saturday morning with my daughter. She loved it. But did ask me lots of questions about the horrible men. Definately a film to see if you love animals and happy endings.

Amazingly filmed.

OK, I don't usually go in for 'soppy' films - I'm more of an action gal.

But I had seen trailers for this and as I love Tigers, I thought I would give it a shot. And I'm so glad I did.

The cinematography with the tigers really is a delight and although the plot isn't an edge-of-the-seat one, it is still an enjoyable feel-good film.

The only thing I would say that at times it can be a little slow-moving, but this is overlooked when you realise all of the footage with the tigers was filmed, cubs and adults alike, rather than using extensive CGI.

The other bonus is, that at the end credits, there is mention of how few tigers are left and what the WWF is doing. Guy Pearce was very involved and felt strongly about the plight of the tigers.

Watch this if nothing else for the footage of tigers.

Disappointing

The trailer for this film looked good. It followed the formula - something cute - something happens - it gets worse - it improves. However, it was dull, depressive and boring. It was too sad for youngsters. The acting was wooden. We deserved an award for watching it!

kids will love this

this one the kids will love.good story to it and the kids sat glued to it

Good one for animal lovers

Really sweet, tearjerking film that is ideal if you're an animal lover. Perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

The tigers are brilliant in the film - the human actors aren't so great!

this film was very good.

i work in a safari park and some of the keepers watched it and everyone loved it.

the film is for all ages .

great stuff. one that has to be watched........

well done

Pull at the Heart Strings

This has to be a beautifully crafted film. Forget about the humans and just let the heart melt at the cubs.

The eyes say it all, and the tigers roar sum up the cruelty of man to the animals.

The documentary on the DVD is also interesting. With only 5,000 Tigers left in the world.

Entertaining

Good work done with the tigers, beautiful settings, the temple is obviously a powerful image as I dreamt about it the following night. But too antropomorphic for my taste although it is necessary to give human expressions to aid understanding when there is no other language, and flashbacks so the public gets a hint of what the tigers think.

Entertaining, not a masterpiece.

Definitely worth the watch

I seldom write reviews, but this film touched all of us, including 2 girls of 9 and 6;

It is beautifully filmed, both from an animal and geographic perspective. I sat down to watch this thinking it would be a half-hearted production, but I was astounded at the rich sets and magnificent locations in Thailand and Cambodia, no expense spared. Some amazing feats with the tiger stars and lots of very touching moments.

Also, Guy Pearce played the part of the "Great White Hunter" exceedingly well -he wasn't supposed to be Indiana Jones anyway. Full marks!
