  • Summary: The Blood of My Brother tells a story of the war in Iraq from a perspective rarely seen. The primary point of view is Iraqi -- a family grieving at the tragic death of its eldest son. (LifeSize Entertainment and Releasing)
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 8 out of 11
  2. Negative: 0 out of 11
  1. 75
    Combines an insider's perspective with what can only be described as gutsy cinematography.
  2. While the film loses focus along the way, it has enough moving and powerful moments to make it a worthy entry in an increasingly crowded genre.
  3. 70
    Much of the picture is exciting and terrifying.
  4. 60
    A few American soldiers are interviewed in a halfhearted attempt at balance, but Berends, who thankfully eschews narration, makes his own p.o.v. clear enough.
