Brothers (I) (2015)
7/10
Pulls the heart strings just right

2 estranged brothers. 1 fighting tournament.

R2F is an international MMA tournament brought to India by Peter Braganza. Whilst introducing the concept to a tv anchor, he says something that is the core essence of the film. In a third world country like India, one has to fight on a daily basis to make ends meet. Everyone is fighting different entities, some are fighting external circumstances while some grappling with their inner demons...From the streets, a fighter shall emerge and rightfully show the indomitable fighting spirit symbolic of this country's spirit on the international stage.

As the film's plot is pretty straightforward, the onus was on the acting and audiovisual effects to serve us the pangs replete of regret, hatred and internal strife within the protagonists, and they have commendably risen to the occasion. Fight scenes were really professional, so was the portrayal of the reception such an event would receive in our country. All actors were on point, but some fights(especially of Monty's) were way over the top, but all in all a brilliant one time watch.
