BROTHERS UNDER FIRE MOVIE REVIEW
What do soldiers fight for? Some would say that they fight for mom, apple pie, baseball, and a little ideal we sometimes take for granted called freedom. But for those who have actually been a soldier, perhaps they would say that mainly soldiers fight for each other. Brothers under Fire features Kiefer Sutherland leading his band of brothers against the cartel after his subordinate’s wedding is crashed in Mexico. Captain Jordan Wright (Kiefer Sutherland) has the skills, wisdom, and manpower for this mission with his special infantry unit soldiers. Can they avenge the interrupted holy matrimony by letting their military hardware speak? When the lines are blurred between doing what’s right and causing an international incident, it’ll take a real hero and his brothers to bring the most evil of criminal tyrants to justice. Bradly, Drew, and Bret bunker down and discuss their viewing history of Kiefer, from the big screen to episodic television. They discuss a variety of themes that always appear in violent war films, then Bret goes full Nick Fury and assembles his own team of cartel busters.
DIRECTED BY: Justin Chadwick
STARRING: Kiefer Sutherland, Ashton Sanders, Solly McLeod, Tommy Martinez, Omar Chaparro, Laura Osma, Flora Martinez, Laird Akeo, Orlando Pineda, Fredy Yate, Sebastian Sierra, Gabriel Camero, Enzo Morales
YOUR REVIEWERS
Bradly Martin (Screener Squad Boss, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)
Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and maybe even providing some comments of his own.
Drew Shaw
As the son of a Coast Guard pilot, Drew has lived everywhere in the US that has a coast that needs guarding. All his childhood travels eventually landed him in Northern Virginia where he works at a brewery by day and watches movies with all the other free time life has to offer him. Drew’s fiance and cats are tired of him ranting and raving about whatever his latest movie obsession is so he is taking to the air waves to make it everybody else’s problem. On the off chance Drew isn’t watching a movie, he likes spending his time reading comics and literature, gaming, and playing around with all his various music making gadgets.
Bret Dorman (Necromancer, Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad)
Bret Dorman was forged in the frost-bound realms of Rochester, New York, tempered in the iron winds of Chicago and the marble-shadowed courts of the Greater DC dominion, before casting his banner beneath the blazing sun of Austin, Texas. There he found not only fellowship in the revels of cinema and story, but his fiercest ally and beloved wife, Sonia Santamaria, with whom he roams the wide roads of the world in restless adventure. Though he lends his voice boldly to the chronicles of film with Necromancer Podcast, he is no mere teller of tales — for he has wrought sagas of his own in moving shadow and light, including Godzilla P.I., The World’s Best, and Violence of the Sun. In his hall dwell three cunning feline familiars — Johnny, Tony, and Ringo — and when not questing abroad, he and his companions wage noble battles of wit and strategy in games both tabletop and arcane.
