Five Brothers: Family Values

A sprawling, passionate crime drama, shot on location in Las Vegas and Ft. Lauderdale, inspired by the indie film “Animal Kingdom” and its television spinoff. Special kudos to the evocative scoring, jittery camerawork that sets an edgy tone and an actual car chase that swerves through the late-afternoon Sin City traffic.

The title and its follow-up (“Five Brothers: The Takedown”) offer a juicy leading role to Nic Sahara as a troubled young hunk who finds he can’t escape the orbit of his dangerous family. Kudos to the casting of trans beauty Danni Daniels as the family matriarch; she nearly walks off with the movie in her pocket.  

Bad brothers (cousins, really) Sean Duran and Blake Ryder throw punches over the opportunity to vigorously fuck captive Alam Wernik (although it’s clear Wernik would have been happy to be double-teamed). Wernik is built for fucking; he’s fit and blond with pink lips that look beautiful wrapped around a stiff boner and an alluring bubble butt that could stop traffic. Duran, bald and muscled and inked, is a rough-and-tough topman. Wernik eagerly slurps his cock; Duran bangs the pretty young stud poolside as they sweat in the bright afternoon sun.  

Sahara stumbles drunkenly out of a liquor store on the Vegas strip and accepts an offer of assistance from hunky Aussie Woody Fox. Both men are lean and nicely built; Sahara is especially lickable in tight jeans and T-shirt that stretches over his lean, swimmer’s torso. The men share a hungry, passionate flip-fuck; both are sensual lovers and they maintain a strong connection as they grin, moan words of encouragement and guide each other through their hookup.  

Another wayward cousin, Jay Dymel, is about to be released from jail and fellow inmate JJ Knight decides to take Dymel’s plush ass for one more frenzied ride. Dymel is built like a college wrestler with a thick cock and deep sexual hunger; he’s a terrific, submissive bottom. The sight of Knight’s thick python sliding into Dymel’s pink chute is boner-inducing. Elsewhere, Aaron Savvy (a former fitness trainer and physique model) plays a surly fixer who intends to collect on a debt owed by Trevor Northman. Their darkly lit, moody fuck has a coercive, trade-y feel. Savvy is an aggressive, focused topman and he pile-drives Northman.  

The final scene features Daniels in a crazily intense oral hookup with Matt Wingman as a closeted senator with a bad heart. Daniels chokes, gags and drools on Wingman’s thick penis — the latter is no slouch, either — and they finger each other to bellowing orgasms. Daniels’ illicit tryst ends on a tragic note and she calls on her nephews to clean up the mess (“We’ll find another Senator,” Duran assures his aunt. “They don’t grow on trees, Sean!” she snaps back) and setting the sequel in motion.

The soundtrack features a catchy original song, “Ghost” by Jarret Moon.
