    Under-rated by some

    A good solid film correctly badged black comedy. Well carried off by the two brothers and builds to a suitably dark ending. Made to a budget but I've seen worse films meant to be blockbusters.

    I'm sure you'll enjoy it if you like the Coen brothers movies as it's in much the same vein

    Wow what an Aussie stormer!

    What is it with Aussie movies, they seem to do everything right, i cannot remember the time I have watched any that have been bad from Picnic At Ayres Rock to Mel Gibson in Mad Max and now we have Brothers Nest.

    From the very start the movie draws you in and intrigues the viewer to want more, almost the perfect start to any movie. Then we have the dialogue and comedy which just sparkles and scintillates with every word; I could not stop laughing from lines like "Ice Junkies always use box cutters" to the conversation about wives it is absolutely magic the chemistry between the two main characters whom I believe are actually brothers in real life.

    The movie proceeds with aplomb and eventually punches the viewer in the guts with a totally horrifying end belying all that came before and gives the viewer a real mind bender to think over. This is Dark Comedy at its finest!!!

    So much better than expected

    This is a great dark comedy/thriller type movie - kind of like a dark heist Coen brothers type film but with a smaller budget. The real brothers do great together! I laughed, I cried. I gasped. Not too long. I feel bad that I was expecting a 5/10 movie and got a 7! Which is really high in my books...not many movies get above a 7 these days from me.

    No Kenny

    Nice change for the Jacobsen brothers but I wanted to like at least one of the characters but I just couldn't. Set over one night we did not see why they feel their actions are justified.

    You're on for the ride from the start

    This is why I love non Hollywood films so much. It could've happened, just like it's being told in this movie. Every single thought presented makes sense in this day and age. Bravo, bravo

      It's explained there is no toaster in the house as their parents use the oven grill to make toast... then the almost next scene shows a toaster next to the kettle with a piece of toast in it! The white toaster is in several shots.
