Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Unmemorable but passably entertaining action flick stars Clayne Crawford, Travis Fimmel, and Daniel Cudmore as Brick, McQueen, and Lincoln Oodie, three outlaw redneck brothers. They eke out a meager existence as killers for hire. They agree to take on a different sort of job for the comely Celeste (Eva Longoria). She wants somebody to rescue her godson Rob (Thomas Brodie-Sangster) from her ex-husband Carlos (Billy Bob Thornton), a despicable lowlife. As the boys pick up Rob and hightail it from Texas to 'Bama, various thugs are sent to tail them.The plot is pretty routine, and the presentation by director / co-writer Barry Battles is heavily stylized. Much of it plays like a comic book, not just the back story of the three protagonists. Bit by bit it gets a little more serious, and the characters get fleshed out a little more. The pacing, sun baked photography, and production design are all adequately done. It's fairly violent and gory, with a couple of mildly amusing action set pieces.The most fun comes from watching an interestingly chosen cast. Crawford, Fimmel, and Cudmore have some chemistry. Andre Braugher plays a 'Bama sheriff with a laid back approach to law enforcement. Michael Rapaport has a good cameo as a bar owner. Renowned stuntwoman and actress Zoe Bell plays one of a gang of ruthless, sexy hit women.Aficionados of white trash cinema and die hard action lovers should get some enjoyment out of "The Baytown Outlaws".Six out of 10.

Mr. Battles and Mr. Hood should be lassoed quickly by people who make very big and deeply dark movies about criminals and corruption - the creativity and innovation are stunning. They deserve the best the industry has to offer. Can't wait to see them do other genres too --This is a must see for crime - amazing writing, directing, cinematography and acting - excellent casting all the way around - these guys are very agile in all the stunts as well - fight choreography the best - But, behind all the mayhem and blood is the sly, continuous humor and vast intelligence of the creators and their understanding of very lost humans - all that and Billy Bob to boot!

It's Deja Vu All Over Again as Today these DTV Trash Movies are just Like the Fodder for Drive-Ins and Grindhouses of a Bygone Era. A Mainstream Movie (pick a Tarantino) has Success and then Roger Corman and His Ilk would Rush Off and in a Day or Two would Send Off Send Ups and Make a Quick Buck.Welcome to the new Millennium. So here We have a Repeat of the Aforementioned Formula. These Opportunist are Riffing Tarantino who has made a Career of Riffing. This is a Not Bad Piece of Work with Southern White Trash as the Anti-Heroes, with a Black Southern Corrupt Cop so No Rants of Reverse-Racism can be Taken Seriously.Of Course, Nothing in this B-Movie is to be Taken Seriously. It is All Played for Laughs and Thrills. Whether You Find it Funny or Thrilling will Absolutely Depend on Your Tendencies, Taste (or lack there of), and Tolerance for Low-Brow, Sophomoric Movies that are In Your Face and Love Every Minute of it.This is an Above Average DTV that Delivers Enough of its Intent and while Not Great Filmmaking or Writing is Entertaining and its Offensiveness is Well Handled and Even Charming at Times. Definitely Worth a Watch for Fans of Exploitation Cinema, Low-Budget Rip-Offs, Filthy Characters (with hearts of gold) that Revel in and are Proud to be Called "The Great Unwashed".

Review: I quite enjoyed this hillbilly tale of 3 brothers taking a job which turns out to be full of twists and turns. The acting was great by the cast and the storyline was well put together by the director. The different characters made the movie interesting and the storyline is unpredictable and original in some ways. The various assassins which are after the trio were well put together and Billy Bob Thornton made me laugh. In all it's a great road movie with action and a touch of comedy throughout. If I explain to much about the storyline it will spoil the movie so give it a go. Enjoyable!Round-Up: I haven't seen any of the trio before so I can't really comment on there previous movies, but they put in a good performance in this one. I especially liked the brother that couldn't talk, because he was a proper nut case when it came with dealing with certain assassins. The reason why I gave this movie a to was because of Billy Bob Thornton, who usually makes quite good movies but he has seemed to have gone out of the limelight lately. He's not in the movie that much, but when he's on screen, he cracked me up. A Great Watch!Budget: $4million Worldwide Gross: N/AI recommend this movie to people who are into there action/thriller/comedy movies about 3 brothers getting hunted down by assassins. 6/10
