Comments on: The long con of "The Brothers Bloom" https://www.scene-stealers.com/reviews/print-reviews/the-brothers-bloom-movie-review/ Movie Reviews That Rock Fri, 05 Jun 2009 15:06:40 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.2.2 By: Eric Melin https://www.scene-stealers.com/reviews/print-reviews/the-brothers-bloom-movie-review/#comment-8903 Fri, 05 Jun 2009 15:06:40 +0000 http://www.scene-stealers.com/print-reviews/the-brothers-bloom-movie-review/#comment-8903 Thanks, I think its a really great movie; what Sam McMurray from “Raising Arizona” would call a “way-homer.”

-Why’s that, Glen?

-Cuz you only get it on the way home!

Seriously, though, I think people will discover “Brothers Bloom” on DVD and it re-watch value will make it pretty valuable…

I think the brothers never realized the gravity of their actions until they kind of blew up in their face. The turn in tone was necessary to end the movie the way they did, because without it they would keep playing “pretend” like little kids.

I defy anyone to think of a scene in a film that makes you smile more than when Penelope and Bloom first hold hands. Great review, as always Eric.

Aside from shifting too far from the early tone of the film, there are some rather obvious plot issues given Stephen’s choices late in the film.
