Brothers

Superb acting highlights this gut-wrenching, intense, down-to-earth film about the anguish, tensions, and suspicions that ensue and escalate for a decorated, traumatized, distraught Marine captain (Tobey Maguire) when he returns home to his faithful wife (Natalie Portman), two young daughters (Bailee Madison and Taylor Geare), his ex-con brother (Jake Gyllenhaal), and his parents (Sam Shepard and Mare Winningham) in Maryland after serving four tours of duty in Afghanistan and being captured and tortured along with a private (Patrick Flueger) by zealous Afghan rebels.
