The Devil and the Daylong Brothers

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.

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.

What a ride! The Devil and the Daylong Brothers is a must see! The brothers, Ish, Abraham, and Enoch are a force to be reckoned with. Their individual stories and shared brotherhood come together to create an action packed dynamic that is a joy to watch. This film is honestly one of the most unique and creative I've seen in years! Along with the action packed sequences, they throw in a musical element that takes the creativity to the next level. The music brings the film to life in a way that I haven't seen on screen in recent memory. I found myself singing the songs in my head long after the credits rolled. I went on to buy the soundtrack, the music alone is amazing! This is a must watch!

It is a terrible movie with lots of music that happens in the southern backwoods.

Or is it a really bad western located in the southern backwoods with lots of music?

Or it is a long music video with singing cowboys set in the southern backwoods.

Whatever it is, please skip it to save whatever few left brain cells. This film is all over the place, without any rhyme or reason. It has a cowboy vibe, but it is not set in the southern backwoods. It wants to be a comedy, but not funny....ever. Maybe it will be an action thriller? Nope. The action is three stooges, slapstick, and no tension. It is three guys hamming it up in front of a camera(not a movie camera, an iPhone 12, maybe) and singing. Yes...that is it.

This film is so incredibly rich. The characters are deeply developed and riveting and the storyline is engaging and surprising. I've never scene any like this film.

It feels like Quentin Tarantino made "O' Brother Where Art Thou" but in a way that feels intimate and personal. It's the right combination of violence, beauty, folklore, and hope. The action scenes are real and gritty, while the songs compliment there scenes in a way I never saw coming.

The actors embodied their characters in such and powerful way. I felt connected to them.

The story, the songs, and the score are all outstanding. Truly a unique and powerful film.
