flowing excrete, no plunger - crud brothers

This is such a bad movie. I had this as a so bad its good recommendation and it's just bad. The main actors were so poorly cast, you'd think this is some film school project Will is this rebellious brother who drives the crappiest car in America. His father is some "top spy" with the CIA who just retired. It's his 65th birthday. Yet the son thinks it's a good idea to walt into the party in a USSR jacket. Sure he gets in a bit of trouble for doing so but it was just such an odd thing. Perhaps the director or someone was really proud of their jacket.

Both brothers can't act to save their lives. They should never have been leads in anything. Especially Loren Avedon. He doesn't have the looks, he has no charm and just comes off as this over confident jerk. I hate his voice as well it's like sand paper to my ears. They have so little chemistry. I get it brothers usually hate each other but the way they convey this to struggle to have any dialogue is about as fun to watch as pulling ones hair. The only way either of them got their roles was they both knew martial arts.

Why not a 1 star.. the action was good. The movie is a bit homophobic in the bar scene especially but I couldn't finish this garbage in a single sitting and doubt I will be able to finish this. I'm just glad I wasn't some middle or high school kid and this was the movie that was rented from a video store for the weekend. I'd be upset and actually want to do my homework before sunday night.

Trivia
While casting for the terrorist supporting roles was taking place, a traffic accident occurred outside of the rehearsal lot when a woman rear-ended the driver in front of her, after which he got out of his car and physically threatened her. The "terrorists" came to the woman's aide, after which the man apologized and drove away.

Goofs
A safety floor mat is visible when the bad CIA guy is shot and falls down in the airplane hanger.

Quotes
Casey Alexander: [to one of the bank robbers after defeating the group] This is the kind of American you're up against and why you don't stand a chance, you asshole.

Alternate versions
The Australian DVD release has additional dialogue between Will and John Alexander as opposed to the U.S. release, which cut down some of the dialogue.
