The Devil and the Daylong Brothers

An epic and wild ride you won't regret. This movie is unlike one you've ever seen! Camp and vengeance underscored with the most powerful bluesy soundtrack. It was "Hadestown" meets "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" with all of Tarantino's guns... come for the fun and stay for the heartbreak and stunning cinematography in this surprisingly touching story about who and where we come from and who we are destined to be....

Brendan Bradley, Nican Robinson and Jordon Bolden played off one another so beautifully and their brotherly banter was one of the most riveting parts of this film, which says a lot since every moment is action packed. And the music!!! It will stay with me for a long time.

Don't read too much into the plot (hey supernatural doesn't), it's a fun romp with great singing and music. It's basically a music video movie with plot sprinkled in to contextualize the songs and tie them together.

The brothers were fantastic, everyone was very talented in the film and enjoyable to watch. The cinematography of the south was beautiful (I'd rather see on film then visit - not a fan of humidity) and visuals were great. Very catchy songs. It's a great movie to drink and sing along to. It's got a basic overall story it follows, the hate is just from those expecting a traditional movie when this is more music driven than story/plot driven. Just don't take it too serious, pour yourself a drink and enjoy the music/movie.

This movie has a killer soundtrack and some really beautiful scenes. The direction is really effective and it added a lot to the story. It was funny and touching, and had characters that were interesting. It was entertaining to see the men live through rules they just hope will guide them on the right path with little evidence that they're right, and do so with such conviction - it really shows the desperation of people to believe in something, that they can somehow be redeemed I guess. A nice look into the folly of man. I really didn't want it to end and I want to see these characters again and spend more time with them.

I wasn't sure what to make of this show at first. But I am so glad I watched it. To me, it was if you crossed Supernatural with a Broadway show. I think the songs were great! It presented a good story line and the acting was great. Though, to be honest, I felt Jordan's performance was way over the top. And I don't mean to knock him. I am sure he is very talented actor. I don't know if the actors actually did the singing in the movie, but if they did, kudos! To me this was actually scripted to be a Broadway show originally instead of a movie. But if it wasn't, they should consider making it one.

I enjoyed The Devil and the Daylong Brothers quite a bit. It's strengths were it's sharp writing (reminiscent of a Coen brothers film), catchy songs, and how well it nails the Southern Gothic style. Unfortunately the director's vision exceeded his budget in some of the action scenes but having many of them be musical numbers helps with that. True to the genre, the film explores the darker side of human nature so it's not for everyone but if you can stomach the violence and general evil constantly on display there is a powerful portrayal of mercy in the climax. I would love to see more of the Daylong Brothers quest to get their souls back.
