It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

This is a modern western drama that takes place in Odem, Texas. Brothers Sean (Patrick John Flueger) and Tommy Donnelly (Austin Nichols) are ranch hands who work for Boss Flood (Kris Kristofferson) who has a minor role compared to his billing. Mr Reed (Beau Bridges) owns the ranch and has a cameo role. Both brothers are married with a daughter.Tommy "ain't worth shootin'" and is in trouble. He owes a guy named Eddie (Kurt Caceres) six thousand dollars and Eddie wants his money. Sean is torn between helping his useless brother and his family, although it seems he can do both.The acting was okay. The plot plowed along until they couldn't work the Eddie trying to get his money anymore. The acting and story was okay, showing us some of the unpleasant tasks of being a ranch hand. Works as a drama, don't expect an action or thriller.Guide: F-bomb, sex, FF stripper nudity

'LAWLESS RANGE': Four Stars (Out of Five)A modern day western/crime thriller, about two Texan brothers; struggling to pay back a massive amount of debt, to some dangerous criminals. The movie was directed by Sean McGinly, and written by Adair Cole. It stars Patrick John Flueger, Austin Nichols, Daniella Alonso, Julianna Guill, Neil Brown Jr., Justin Arnold, Dale Dickey, Kris Kristofferson and Beau Bridges (who also executive produced the film). I found it to be a pretty entertaining, and well made, little western drama flick.Sean Donnelly (Flueger) and Tommy Donnelly (Nichols) live in Texas. Sean has always been the good brother, and Tommy has always been the troubled 'bad brother'. Tommy drinks a lot, doesn't show up for work (where Sean is also employed), and is a bad father. Tommy really gets into a lot of trouble, when he ends up owing $6,000 to a criminal mechanic (Brown Jr.). Sean, once again, comes to his rescue; endangering both men, and their families.I didn't have a lot of faith in this film, when I started watching it, because it's a low budget indie flick I had never heard of; that doesn't even have a full video release yet (it's not available on Netflix, or at Redbox). I paid $4.99 for an Amazon Instant Video rental of it, because the film costars Courtney Palm (my favorite actress); in an uncredited one scene cameo. She's fully naked in it, like she often is (in movies so far), but her performance is definitely too minimal to rave about. I like the film a lot anyway though. It's just really well made, and the performances are all good. I was never bored, and it's just a lot better than I was expecting!Watch our movie review show 'MOVIE TALK' at: https://youtu.be/n2qWxeZ0Tck
