Rian Johnson’s (Brick) “big fun globetrotting con man movie” The Brothers Bloom doesn’t hit theaters until May 29th, but right now you can watch the first 7 minutes on Hulu. Things to look out for: One of the young Brothers Bloom is played by Where the Wild Things star Max Records, as Rian points out in the intro.

But this opening sequence introduces you to the quirky tone and ...

As noted earlier in the day, the first seven minutes of Rian Johnson's whimsical crime caper, "The Brothers Bloom" are on Hulu. Or as they call it, "a globe-trotting comedy about the last great adventure of the world's two best con men." It's basically a long opening sequence that tells you the back story of the lead brother characters in the film played by Adrien Brody and Mark Ruffalo and how they got to be the little schemers they are (the film also stars Rachel Weiz and Rinko Kikuchi). It also features Rod Stewart's rejiggered cover of The ...
First 7 Minutes of ‘Brothers Bloom’
We Are Movie Geeks —
I couldn’t believe after seeing ‘The Brothers Bloom’ at last year’s St. Louis International Film Festival that it was then going to hold off on getting a release until May. It was such a great, fun movie, and Rian Johnson is quickly establishing himself as a diverse filmmaker whose only real similarities between projects is the level of story telling he brings to the table.
While the movie doesn’t release until May 29th, you can check out the first seven minutes of the film right here. This clip comes to us today courtesy of Hulu, which is, evidently, plotting to take over the world. Alec Baldwin told me so.

10 Films Ruined by Voice-Over Narration
SpoutBlog —
A few weeks ago, Summit Entertainment released the first seven minutes of The Brothers Bloom online. Normally, this kind of marketing strategy is useful, particularly if the movie isn’t well known. However, it helps for such a movie to have a terrific opening, which grabs the viewer in and makes him/her need to see what happens after that teased beginning. The Brothers Bloom, unfortunately, has an unbearable start, enough that I couldn’t even get through the entire seven minutes. I turned the streaming video off at the 4:24 mark.
The primary cause of my annoyance was the voice-over narration, provided ...
