Story line

It is about four adopted brothers who come together after a number of years after finding out their mother had been murdered, they then begin to investigate their mother’s death and start to take the law into their own hands. There are two cops one black one white one of the cops are secretly working for the hoodlum and when the other cop realizes that the white cop helped to kill the old lady then he kills his partner and frames his dead partner making it seem he was killed by one of the four brothers, later on the cop is found out and is killed by another officer (good cop) after one of the four brothers found out about the dirty cop and how he killed his partner. Then later on in the story the three brothers then find out one of the brothers are dealing with a notorious local bad guy/gangster which then creates problems.

This film gives you mixed emotions e.g. when the youngest brother dies in a set up shoot out organized by the hoodlum you feel sorry for the other three brothers because in that scene the little brother is in pain slowly dying and screaming for his big brothers help.

Again in that scene it also makes you angry because you know it was the thuugs that set up the whole thing, so it makes you feel angry towards the hoodlum even though you do not see him in that scene but the director gives it to you subliminally that this was the doings of the hoodlum.

I watched this film at home by myself it was recommended by a friend to watch it, and I enjoyed it because I had no idea what it was about.
