Often times you love them. Sometimes you hate them. But your family is here to stay. Especially in the case of siblings. However, as seen in the new film “Half Brothers,” you don’t always have to like your siblings, especially ones that you just discover exist minutes ago.
As seen in the trailer for “Half Brothers,” the film follows the story of a successful Mexican businessman that is brought to America to say goodbye to his dying father that abandoned him when he was just a boy. But when he arrives, he discovers that he actually has a half brother, and you know what? They’re exact opposites! The hilarity, most definitely, ensues as the duo has to go on a scavenger hunt to discover the true history of their father and why he seemingly has two families.
“Half Brothers” is directed by Luke Greenfield. The filmmaker is probably best known for his previous features, “Let’s Be Cops” and “The Girl Next Door.” And you can see Greenfield is bringing his stylish comedic sensibilities to this heartwarming, yet silly adventure. The cast is led by Luis Gerardo Méndez, Connor Del Rio, and Juan Pablo Espinosa.
