Half Brothers (2020)
3/10
A Comedy without Laughs
8 March 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This a story about a father and his son who live in San Miguel de Allende. They are interested in flying model planes and playing pranks of on people who live in their town. Both the father and the son are incorrigible. The father is extremely immature, but he and his child are buddies. The story is contrived and unbelievable from the beginning. It doesn't get much better. The actors are not very good, the script is poorly written, and the dialogue isn't real. The son in San Miguel grows up to be a snobbish, nasty boor, and he has become somehow rich. When he comes to the U.S. to visit his dying father, who he has decided to loathe, he meets his American brother. Their father was stranded in the U.S. for a generation - long enough for his two sons to grow up to become different kinds of jerks. In place of genuine emotions, the film substitutes insincere, recycled stereotypes, sentimentality and bad jokes.

Don't waste your time.
