Jamal Hill has done an exceptional job with this story of forbidden love. The cinematography is superb and Keke Palmer and Cory Hardrict do an outstanding job. The narrative is very compelling. A great cast and production. Starting with a twist on the "typical" tale of a school girl crush, Brotherly Love takes us to the great streets of Philly with a new but still classic tale. The soundtrack is another great asset to the film and overall I very much enjoyed this film. This film made me think of a classic films Aaron Loves Angela, Cooley High and believe it or not, even Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Macy Gray per usual is always a delight to see as she plays the mother of Jackie (Palmer), Sergio (Eric D. Jill, Jr.) and June. Quincy Brown (also in DOPE) is a great male, love interest. I am looking forward to more films from Jamal Hill and also from Flavor Unit films.

Brotherly Love is the movie that speaks to ALL generations. This Dynamic Drama will touch your heart as it reflects moments of our youth that we all face-- those life events where your decisions can either make or break your dreams. Brotherly Love is relevant and real!The main characters each played their roles in a way that clearly expressed a connection which complimented each and every scene. Cory Hardrict (American Sniper, 2014) is PHENOMENAL! I appreciated the unpredictable plot twist which is lacking in many dramatic films. Quincy Brown, being a new comer to the film industry will surprise viewers as he skillfully plays a co-starring role that keeps up with the talent and versatility of KeKe Palmer. It's a must see with the whole family to remind humanity that ALL LIVES matter!

The movie "Brotherly Love" reminds me of such classic INDIE movies like "Cooley High" "Boyz in the Hood" and "West Side Story" which I have not seen in a long time. The casting is phenomenal! And the writing and directing was genius! The city of Brotherly Love, Philadelphia and other urban community adults and youth can relate to this movie personally by taking you inside the Taylor home with their struggles of single parenting, unemployment, drugs, violence, hopelessness and dreams. Which Kept me on a roller coaster ride from beginning to end! This movie has an awesome twist; no one I discussed it with expected the ending, surprise, surprise! This new generation filmmaker has a positive message for our youth and so much needed, (The choices made in life and their consequences). This movie deserves attention from Hollywood. LOVED IT!

It just felt right! Awesome movie, awesome cast, awesome production. As a 21 year old it's nice to see what our generation can contribute to film and this will be one of those classics that kids will watch 20 years from now. Young Black Hollywood was so well represented in this - Keke Palmer, Logan Browning, Jay Lewis, Justin Martin, and more. The promo was dope for this because some of the cast members visited my school and we appreciated that. I'm glad Cory hardrict could shine bright in this because he's truly talented and Hollywood needs to see him more! Brotherly Love was well written and surprisingly did not end how I thought! Jamal Hill is an inspiration because I've seen his other films and the growth from those to this gives young filmmakers and dreamers hope. Go see it now!
