This is the most fun binge watch I’ve encountered in a while. The comedy engendered from the “odd couple” pairing of the severe older brother and sensitive younger brother works well to bring levity to the otherwise grim events. Michelle Yeoh is mesmerizing and cutthroat and just so good here. I

Standard action-comedy stuff with an Asian twist, but leans more with the former than the latter. Nothing wrong with that, it's just not my cup of tea. Go see American Born Chinese: https://www.serializd.com/review/6071644. DROPPED after three episodes.

give me season 2 omg. started this for michelle yeoh and ended up really liking it.

Good stuff. Action is well choreographed, characters are all really awesome, and the story is pretty strong. Academy Award Winner Michelle Yeoh is indeed still academy award winning status.

Great way to start 2024. Very fun show with good comedy. They need to work on balancing the comedy with the serious moments. There was multiple times where the dramatic weight was cut off by a poorly timed gag or joke Additionally the fight choreography was a bit weak at times. Still, fun cha

The Brothers Sun is an early contender for one of the most underrated and overlooked shows of the year. While the show has a pretty basic premise, it’s the top-notch acting sequences, incredible performances, and the equally hilarious and dramatic moments that truly set it apart. I found it to be

This show had no right to feel so Asian. It’s awesome and I love it. There are many relatable quirks from the characters. It’s a lot of fun. Besides all that, the story is comedic and easy to follow. The pacing is very quick and nothing is that difficult to understand, but through this all the steps

All I’m going to say is that this better get the recognition it deserves. Was it binge worthy? Yes. But to me it was a lot more. It had heart. It had beauty. It had humor. It was nuanced and layered. It was unexpected and human. It was everything I want in a show. It honestly wrapped up so nicely

Wow! Definitely a pick for most underwatched show of the year! So great! I’m hoping for a season 2, but if not, it had a good ending so I’ll be alright! LOVE THIS SHOW!!

The Brothers Sun
Netflix will pay for canceling this

Though I can’t see this staying at the top of any 2024 ranked list, this is still a good Netflix Original that everyone should give a chance. The first three episodes can be quite rocky, but from the fourth onwards, it finds its own footing and stays consistent till the end. It’s meant to be comed

my moral compass was really struggling with this one 😭😭😭 super entertaining watch !!!

In the realm of streaming series, "The Brothers Sun" emerges as a true sleeper hit, offering a refreshing blend of The Godfather's essence with a distinctive Taiwanese ethnic Chinese flavor. Michelle Yeoh, an Oscar winner, delivers a stellar performance as the crime family matriarch, bringing depth

This show was so campy and fun! I only gave it a shot for Michelle Yeoh and I wasn't expecting to like it much but I ended up loving it. The Sun family became my family now kinda.

Them massage therapists of Michelle Yeoh and Justine Chien must've been working overtime treating their backs after wrapping up this show

Michelle Yeoh is excellent in this at times tonally confusing yet extremely entertaining and enjoyable series that have brutal moments with good fight sequences and some funny moments,not everything works but it is extremely fun.

The Brothers Sun
good action sequences and a rich story and netflix just cancels it for god knows what reason.

Created by Brad Falchuk and Byron Wu, Netflix's "The Brothers Sun" debut season, blends action, comedy, and drama to create an engaging viewing experience across eight - hour riveting episodes. Anchored by a talented ensemble, the series thrives on energetic performances and wild action sequences.

I had to drop this show after only 2 episodes in just couldn’t get In to it at all

It’s nothing super special but it’s still really fun to watch I came for Michelle Yeoh, and I stayed for Michelle Yeoh too.. but I also stayed coz the fight choreography is insane, I wish they kept the creative and unique fight scenes from the earlier episodes, it was still cool to watch but they t
