Story: Brotherhood starts as Sam (Clarke) is trying to put his life back together with his partner and children, when his past starts to come back and haunt him, as he finds himself being targeted by a new menacing group of criminals who want him to join them, but he isn’t willing to give up his new honest life again.
Thoughts on Brotherhood
Thoughts – Brotherhood is the third chapter in Noel Clarke’s hood series, taking us to the more adult stage of his life, where he is trying to put a life together away from the criminal world, a world that is waiting for him to come back and will do anything to drag him back in. This does highlight the mentality of the gangs running riot in London, never putting people’s honest life in their minds. The performances in the film are strong without being on the levels of the previous films where everything will end up going too far for the greater good.
Final Thoughts – Brotherhood is an unneeded sequel in the franchise that reached its peak.
