Verdict on The Devil and the Daylong Brothers
Recap
The movie follows three brothers searching for their father who sold their souls to the devil. They want their souls back and are hunting anyone who has any involvement in it until they get the answers from their father.
Best Parts
The stand-out factor in the movie is the unique blend of musical and revenge thriller. It felt like something we haven’t seen before and while the songs might not be the most memorable, they add something to every scene. The three leads have great chemistry and bring the movie to life. I couldn’t help but feel like this was a gritty vision of the Nicolas Cage movie Drive Angry.
Worst Parts
While I love the style, you could see people not enjoying certain moments. This is mostly because the location is an area with has been used a lot.
Final Thoughts –The Devil and the Daylong Brothers is entertaining, stylish and wacky.
