Brothers from Malta

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.

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...

Fabulous, fun ... and you don't have to be Maltese to love it! So many classic family and sibling situations that are so funny and are so relatable across all cultures (even had my German husband laughing and nodding throughout).

It's heart-warming entertainment pure, with deep family messages and yes, there's a dog in it too.

The authenticity of the film is so apparent in so many little aspects - from the absolutely authentic Maltese characters and their accents to the old family photos from Malta, and also the interior decorating style of Jo's home.

This is definitely the best way to embrace your inner Maltese in a cinematic way. A good-feel movie with cultural depth and a big warm Maltese heart!

All that leaves to be said is that I'm now waiting for "Brothers from Malta 2: Roxie rules".

We loved Brothers From Malta, the whole cinema was loving it with many laughs along the way. This film will bring back many of your childhood memories from Malta. Definitely worth going to see.

There are a couple of Maltese words during the movie and when I was translating them to my boys they could not stop laughing. Julian has dove a great job in making this film, can't wait for more to come. The cinema I was at was quite full with people with Maltese heritage and they all loved it. If you get a chance go and see this while it's there it at the selected cinemas, take your parents as they will love it for sure.

Loved this movie. Laughed the whole way through.

We all have an father/ uncle named Joe or Charlie. We were brought up to pray to St. Anthony to find something we have lost.

We all experienced the banter, the comical representation of westernised sayings and quotes slightly manipulated by the Maltese interpretation and strong accent.

The Galea brothers did an great job communicating what it was like to grow up in a Maltese family very well. A family that migrated to another country like Australia to make a better life for their families.

Finally a movie I can truly relate to.

Absolutely hilarious. Highly recommend Especially for Generation X we can really relate to this.
