I'm a little bewildered by this film... YEMAN. Really. One of the driest countries in the world, currently in a drought which is forcing thousands to move, one of the poorest, without any oil resources (that could ever pay for THIS), with some of the worst human rights violations... including the kidnapping of girls from other countries and forcing them to be brides... Parts of Yeman are beautiful, sure, but ... Did the director get a big map of the middle east and just pick out at... more

Parts of Yeman are beautiful, sure, but ... Did the director get a big map of the middle east and just pick out at random the country he had heard least about?

A few cheezy parts, like CGI baby, a morph-ette that seemed unnecessary, and that vamp soldier guy having a brag.

Based on a true story. Enjoyed this cross between a western/gangster movie, 3 brothers against the world. Realistic filming of the 1920's prohibition hillbilly "moonshine" era, fascinating time in American history. Great cast quality acting especially by stellar Tom Hardy and the violent/evil Guy Pearce, quality direction. Sub plot of 2 romances involving a young love and two damaged older couples enhanced the storyline. Excellent screenplay and soundtrack by Nick Cave. Brutality & violence... more

Brutality & violence extreme sometimes but necessary to explain the era obviously R rated, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
