Five Eagle Brothers (2014)

This is a really good movie. Saw it accidentally in RED channel then saw Chan Sung in it, my mom and I decided to watch it. The writer and director did a really good job in this. There were no dull moments in the movie. It's a really funny story with the right amount of mystery/thriller vibe! The plot twists and clues are just right, too.

The casts are perfect for each roles. The acting was superb, I almost cry at the end but end up laughing because of their funny quirks and dialogues. The music is good, too, because it will definitely stir and set your emotions.

I think if I watched this in the big screen/movie house I'll end up shouting and laughing my ass off. All in all, I think this is a heart warming film because it shows how a family can pull through hard time if and when they are together.

A Dynamite Family is not a comedy not even a dark one. It does have a couple of humorous moments, but overall it is no comedy.. It's a murder mystery. If I had to pigeonhole it, I'd say it was a quirky and thrilling family drama.

Four estranged half siblings with odd personalities come back home to a small town after the disappearance of their parents. The parents each had 2 children when they married. Each set of siblings did not care for each other before their parents marriage. The only thing they have in common is they care for their teen aged sister. The older siblings begin to look into the disappearance and stumble upon what seems to be a serial killer. Their attempts to catch the killer brings them closer together and matures them as individuals.

The cast makes the movie. They are an excellent ensemble. It looks like an indie movie, but the production is done well. I watched it a couple months before writing this review and I don't remember the OST. I do remember not being annoyed by it, which is good. I may decide to watch this again. I guessed the murderer correctly, but I wonder if their were clues that I missed. If i do rewatch it, it won't be anytime soon.

If you like murder mysteries and trying to guess whodunit, solid acting, and/or family dramas with odd ball characters, I'd give this movie a looksee. If you need some kind of romance in everything you watch, give it a hard pass.
