Wonderful film. It's simply one of those films where you find no flaws, only because it says a story we've seen many times before, but still finds a way to say it so differently than all other films have in the past. Everything is so thoughtfully looked after, and so perfectly pi...( read more)

A strong movie with genious actors. Connie Nielsen really has a special glow in this movie. But once again american cinema could not resist to make its own adaptation of this movie. so be sure to watch this original and not the new american movie "brothers".

a really wonderful portrayal of the changing roles between people and just how close we are to the edge of everything and the salvation of everything.
Wow! Intense, I haven't sat through a movie and been so captivated in ages. Can't wait to see the American adaption, but there's no way it'll be as good as this.
This is the kind of movie that doesn't solve everything at the end -- that observes some situations are capable not of solution but only of accommodation. full review

While its focus is domestic drama, the film doesn't shy away from harsh scenes of wartime violence. full review
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Brothers (Brødre)" !
