can anyone tell me why this is brilliant?? I could not figure it out for the life of me.
Brilliant moves are ones that allow the capture of material and are also good or best. Since the rook is able to he taken, that counts.

hm you would think it would just be a top computer move, but thanks
I think it might be because black's bishop is trapped. No matter where it moves it will get captured. Your knight also defends your queen if you capture the bishop on e6. You are also up in material, trading pieces when you're ahead could simplify the game a lot in a lot of situations are help you win. Hope that helps :P
It is very hard to figure out if you are joking or not. First of all, the bishop is protected by the b5 pawn, so it can just stay, it isn't even threatened right now. Second, the bishop can capture a rook on f1. That is a very weird definition of being "trapped".
It doesn't know either since the next few perfect plays don't achieve anything. However, the brilliant move rule is about sacrifice for advantage. Black lost a key piece which was defending the two pawns. A following queen trade would leave a rook, knight and four pawns against a knight and five pawns.
