User Reviews

This movie has moved the low end of my scale downward

I began to feel embarrassed for another person (the director/producers) while watching this movie. Probably one of the worst feelings out there. Embarrassed, that is, until I discovered the title similarity to "Brothers at War" (also 2009) which made me realize the director/producers are simply trying to make money off of people grabbing this "movie" by mistake. This really put the low budget situation in a different light.

Utter waste of time.

I paid $1 for a rental and feel overcharged.

How can I say it again? I'll try....The electricity to run your TV/DVD player would be better spent running a washing machine.

To the actors: not really your fault
