Honestly this movie has everything I find engaging in a movie or drama, a brothers story, handsome leads, great actors, and well written angst. Sometimes a movie gets hyped up so you make this image inside your head of what it might be like right? And sometimes you watch the movie and maybe they took a different direction but it's still good, and other times you watch the movie and you knew what you're going to get but the delivery is so predictable it becomes boring. Ok, so what category does this one fit? The category where all your predictions come true and you still haven't moved an inch for about two hours because even though you know how it's going to end, you've become hopelessly involved in the characters. I don't always look for happy endings but for this one I wanted it so bad. Anyway just wow, super intense movie but the brothers relationship it brought me to tears. DO did an excellent job portraying someone with a disability and who's living a life of complete darkness after an injury and his trashy older brother just got out of prison on parole giving the excuse that he's going to take care of his recently disabled younger brother. And even though they start out having some trouble accepting each other when the truth comes out with time and both of them realize what the other must have been through they start getting closer.
