The Brothers Sun Reviews
Chicago Reader
Gregory Wakeman
The Brothers Sun wastes its intriguing premise.
TheWrap
Ronda Racha Penrice
The "Everything Everywhere All at Once" star shines without stealing the spotlight from leading men Justin Chien and Sam Song Li
New York Magazine/Vulture
Roxana Hadadi
Yeoh uses a frank sense of humor and cunning to shift between domineering and domestic. Yet the ease she brings to the role contrasts with the rest of this thematically, tonally, and narratively muddled series.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
The Brothers Sun does ramble on, but when Yeoh and Chien bust out those fancy moves and gather around the family table with Song Li, its pure action/drama magic.
TIME Magazine
Judy Berman
Thanks to a talented cast and wild action sequences, the show remains fairly entertaining throughout.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
The quality of dialogue and storytelling in The Brothers Sun, despite much fun and electricity, proves a drag on many of her co-stars. Ms. Yeoh, meanwhile, levitates.
AV Club
Max Gao
For a show that reiterates almost ad nauseam the idea of 保护家人 (bǎo hù jiā rén), or "protecting one's family," it comes as little surprise that TBS is strongest when it keeps the focus on the core family unit.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
At its best when it's playful -- basically "Mother Knows Best" with a lot of violence -- and less so when it slips into silliness, the show features enough energetic action to work reasonably well on multiple levels.
Variety
Aramide Tinubu
The Brothers Sun has the perfect mix of comedy and drama. It's a narrative about what's expected, what can be endured and how much we are willing to give up so others can live out their dreams.
indieWire
Ben Travers
Its penchant for pistols produces an unwieldy edge; a violent streak too barbaric to be shrugged off when it's time for silly laughs or family bonding, and thus incongruous with such a warmhearted story.
Observer
Laura Babiak
The Brothers Sun abandons its compelling family saga in favor of international conspiracies, thinly written villains, and total motivational turnarounds.
The Hollywood Reporter
Angie Han
Although the end result feels like something less than the sum of its parts, it still yields enough fun to make Byron Wu and Brad Falchuk's action-comedy-drama as bingeable as a tray of freshly baked cookies.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Aside from the presence of Michelle Yeoh, "The Brothers Sun" is an awful series that's bad in almost every way.
Common Sense Media
Joyce Slaton
Propulsive and thrilling, this series has the vibe of action-thriller yarns like John Wick, but spreading the mayhem out over a season gives viewers ample time to get to know characters.
CBR
Sayantan Gayen
The Brothers Sun may be a mixed bag, but in its journey to bring two brothers together, it inevitably finds a balance that shakes the foundations of the Sun family's principle, making the show a riveting watch till the end.
JoBlo's Movie Network
Alex Maidy
Funny, violent, and well-acted, The Brothers Sun is a good way to start 2024, assuming you had a resolution for dead drug dealers, gunfights, and family squabbling.
Inverse
John O'Brien
Proving Michelle Yeoh can do no wrong, The Brothers Sun is the streaming giant's first such show that could be classed as unmissable.
Nuha Hassan (Medium)
Nuha Hassan
The Brothers Sun is an entertaining action dramedy that explores family obligations, the desire to follow dreams, and healing familial trauma.
Polygon
Joshua Rivera
There's a lot to love about The Brothers Sun - the way it delights in cross-cultural specificity, luxuriating in lavish shots of mahjong games, churros frying, and improv shows in equal measure; how well it builds its genre thrills around a family story.
Entertainment Voice
Alci Rengifo
This one is a fun popcorn escape but done without going cheap. It has style, a few arthouse flourishes and stellar casting.
