Verdict on My Blind Brother
My Blind Brother is a romantic comedy following two brothers who end up falling for the same woman. However, with one being blind he is unaware of the situation it puts his brother in. Although, after years together they must figure out how to overcome their problems.
This is a romantic comedy that gets to play into the concept of meeting people when you least expect it. Along with the sacrifices people must make when it comes to supporting their brother. It all comes together to get a few laughs along the way. Even if you feel like the blind figure could have been more sensitive.
Final Thoughts –My Blind Brother is a standard romantic comedy.
