Brothers from Malta

Went to see this premiere last night of the feature film after being a fan of the YouTube series. I was blown away I didn't expect it, being a indi film, looked like a studio to me.

Smart script obviously skewed to a Maltese audience but being of an ethnic culture it was like sitting in my family room. Great banter between the two brothers that kept us all laughing and the Maltese cracking up!!

Joe reminds me so much of Maltese mates dad growing up, the accents were so authentic.

It's great to see some diversity in Julian's ability as a film maker when both good first feature films were romantic movies, so well done Julian!

I recommend you give out a go...

I felt like I was watching my own family up there, it almost brought a tear to my eye.

Well done Julian for being able to show us the fundamental importance of the family unit, (even a dysfunctional one like Joe & Charlie) and then mix it in with some very light hearted rancour that played on the multicultural antics of Maltese people living in a Western country like Australia or the US.

A must watch movie for those who still appreciate a well thought out story and script and who dread having to watch another meaningless empty Hollywood Sci-fi superhero movie which seems to be in the majority these days.

What a great story about two hard headed brothers with a soft heart brought together by a loving sister . It defines the Maltese culture. Caring, loving, with a twist of hot temper and stubbornness. When you sit back listening carefully you get to absorb and understand the funny punch lines that where so cleverly put together. I highly recommend that every Maltese or Maltese connected person to go and see brothers from Malta. I probably would have liked to see a little more relating to the father and mother and a little more dialogue in Maltese however for a low budget movie with a small cast the Galeas managed to get the point across. " life is too short to hold a grudge"

Proset.

What a great insight in the Maltese culture. The connections were bloody hilarious and really confirms the very distinct attributes of the Maltese. Two Brothers from Malta made me feel proud to be Maltese. We are who we are and to see in on the big screen was a comfort and a great laugh. The loudness, the abruptness and most important the good heart behind the yelling all makes sense. So, I keep telling my Spanish husband when he asked me to whisper, my reply ... I am Maltese, I can't whisper. I can't wait to see another Maltese movie, we are a special unique breed and I enjoyed celebrating that while watching Two Brothers from Malta.

I took my mum and mother in law to see the movie. We laughed from start to finish. Loved all the Maltese references, especially 'The Maldives' reference. It's really nice to see movies being made for the Maltese community as this is rare. Hopefully the movie will be released in Melbourne again as I am sure the Maltese community in the west would support it. Would love for the producer to create a movie in Maltese next. Is there any chance of this happening? Would recommend to all 2nd generation Maltese.

Go and see the movie - you won't be disappointed. Thank you to Julian and the family, including Roxy.
