Director Dax Sheppard's 2 other movies are really worthwhile watching: "Hit and Run" and "CHIPS" are both really original, exciting and witty, but this directorial debut is NOT a movie at all, but a fake documentary, that wants to make fun of the difficulties of getting a movie made in Hollywood. Quentin Tarantino has said it. Steven Spielberg has said the same thing before: just start making a movie with nothing IF you are REALLY passionate about directing. And this mockumentary is the result. He cant get any financing to fund this movie idea of his, so let's make fun of this whole tiresome process of NOT finding money for a picture by making a fake documentary about it. Unfortunately it ismt witty enough all the time to be captivated by it. Better watch Dax Shepard's other 2 movies, those other 2 REAL movies are absolutely terrific!

I thought it was funny the whole way through,it had many super memorable moments of hilarity. It stuck well to its genre of mockumentary, by being at least close to believable almost the whole time with some pretty far-fetched moments. I love the all star cast,amazing to see so many funny people in one movie working so well together. Dax Shepard's brand of comedy is unique and top notch. It seems that much thought, love, and effort was put into this movie. Its an offbeat comedy with a kind of awkward situational feel, so it may not be everyone's cup of tea but I loved it. I hope to see more movies with this humor, wit, and direction from Dax in the future.

A "documentary" about Dax Shepard retiring from comedy so he can pursue his dream of becoming a Martial Arts action star. Seriously. OK, maybe not so seriously. The beginning has Dax and his producing partner Nate Tucker going from agent to lawyer to producers to actors to directors to sell his karate idea "Brother's Justice", well, at this stage it's really just a title. When it's funny, it's very funny. The problem is, when it's not funny, it's not anything. For an hour and a half run time, it's awfully long for a one-joke movie. Because really, that's all this is, one joke about Shepard trying to sell Hollywood on the idea of him becoming an action star in the ilk of Steven Segal. The idea that this documentary is serious is supposed to be funny, but I can't take this seriously. I've seen enough of Shepard in both comedy and drama roles that I know he's not actually this stupid. It's cool that so many Hollywood hot-shots were willing to make themselves look like arrogant jerks for the sake of Dax Shepard and this (documentary? movie? —I don't know what to call it). At least their parts mostly work because Jon Favreau, Ashton Kutcher, Bradley Cooper and Tom Arnold can all do comedy and drama. Ironically, unlike Dax's "successful" comedies like "Employee of the Month" (2006) and "When in Rome" (2010), "Brother's Justice" actually has all the elements of a good story: a sympathetic character (who doesn't want to see a good guy succeed in Hollywood?), conflict (Dax thinks it's a good idea, Hollywood does not), drama, comedy, and then the idea that friendship rises above everything. But none of that really works here. Unintentionally, "Brother's Justice" just proves that Dax Shepard is best suited for comedy, or maybe that's its entire purpose. I never was sure if I was supposed to take this seriously or as one long joke. I'm sorry Dax, but I will always highly value your dramatic work in "Parenthood" and "The Freebie" (2010).

Good God ... I just woke up after another attempt to watch this movie/docku-mockumentary (or whatever it is) and decided to write a few lines here as an warning to all other folks around the world who maybe came up with the same idea. I'm so drained and weary right now, but even if I was at my best I wouldn't know how to write a review of a movie that has nothing going on for (what it felt like) hours but is actually just slightly more than 70 minutes long (wth!?) wow ! Thinking back, why did I start watching this celluloid sanity torture in the first place ? Maybe because with an glimpse of my eye I saw all that guest appearances of celebrities I like on it's IMDb page, or probably even more because I hoped to see Kristen Bell's cameo ... it will remain unknown to me ... the bottom line is, I'm writing this for you and if you're planing on watching this, consider yourself warned (and prepare a comfy pillow)

No really? No seriously, really? this was so stupid I can't even imagine someone paying money to produce this. I saw it (festival) cause i like some of the cast (jon and Bradley), but I never heard of the lead. Then I came here to IMDb to see what else this guy has been in an then... I understood. Employee of the month. Classic comedy there. let's go to prison and the freebie sound like good idea's but... wow. maybe I'm being to harsh, it's just i don't have a lot of time to spend watching movies and it gets to me when they are this bad. sorry for anyone involved in the making of this! I only wrote this to save others. Not to bash your work.

The movie tries and breaks down the wall between itself and the viewer. While I haven't watched "I'm still here" yet, I'm sure it will be more subtle and better approach to "fake-behind-the-scenes" movie/documentary, than this was. But it's not for lack of trying or finding some stars to play in your movie (or "names"). Most of them only appear for a brief segment of course. The thing that will make or break the film for you, is if you can laugh at the silly scenario or not. I wanted to, but I just couldn't. Dax Sheppard seems like a cool guy (on late night/TV shows where he appears), but that doesn't change the fact, that for all his effort, he just can't pull this off. A really superb (spoof?) making of a star is "Exit through the gift shop". Watch this and see how this sort of movies should be done and you'll understand

Without professional training or proper structure for pitching a film, Dax Shepard goes out on a whim to raise his brain child, "Brother's Justice", a Martial-Arts film starring himself, and abandons his career in comedy to dedicate himself to it's production full-time. Surprisingly, Dax recruits long time friend Nate Tuck as his producer and they embark on a quest for funding, a cast, and advertisement in hopes of bringing "Brother's Justice" to the big screen. Dax has such high hopes for the film, he even hires David Palmer, who is also the director of the actual movie, to film its progress as a documentary. Now to be clear, this film is a mockumentary about Dax Shepard making a movie, if you were confused. The Dax portrayed in the movie, struggling to bring his magnum opus to a theater near you, seemed like he also struggled to bring comedy in the film in some areas. Surely there were hilarious moments in the film, as you would expect, but other times Dax was trying too hard to be funny, and even though it is a mockumentary, it seemed a little too dumb at times. However, I did enjoy it very much. The movie was fresh the whole way through, and was pleasantly entertaining and original. Shepard did not slack off in light of the resources available to do the film, but I still feel it had eminent potential to be a gigantic success if a few extra hands were involved in the writing process. Although it wasn't as powerful as prejudged, it wouldn't hurt to take the blindfold off "Brother's Justice" and have a pretty good laugh.

The mocumentary film genre started to blossom in the 1980's with Christopher Guest's This is Spinal Tap. Which is one of my favorite comedies. Then after about 1985 mocumentaries died off. Until, Sacha Baron Cohen started the genre back up, with his successful hit Borat. Now comes Dax Shepard's attempt in the mocumentary world with Brother's Justices. Brother's Justice is the mocumentary that follows Dax Shepard, who has left the comedy world, and is trying to make a martial arts movie, that he wrote. He starts pitching the script without giving any plot details, so everyone thinks he is crazy for trying to make this film. The mocumentary is filled with great celebrity cameos from Jon Favreau, Tom Arnold, Bradley Cooper, David Koechner, Michael Rosenbaum, and Ashton Kutcher. I found this mocumentary to be extremely funny. Most of it was shot in 2006, and then progresses throughout the years. This is along the lines of I'm Still Here the mocumentary, that Casey Affleck and Joaquin Phoenix created a year back. It follows an actor who gives up what he is known for to reinvent himself in another way. Brother's Justice is more light- hearted funny, than I'm Still Here is, but is absolutely ridiculous, and insanely hilarious. This is not a film in theaters. It is playing at the Tribeca Film Festival, or is playing on Time Warner Cable's On Demand. I give Brother's Justice an 8 out of 10.

this film threw me a curve ball, i had no idea what to expect when i watched this. it has some familiar names and it was sorta interesting. its more like a documentary type of film with the 3rd party sorta thing. its clearly low budget and it was not the worst thing to watch yet i know you can see something else that might not be a big wast of your time like this film is. you most likely only herd of this film if you keep an eye out for new DVD's coming out and thats how i found it. i had a few laughs here and there and don't expect much from this and you will be OK knowing that its a wast of time. watch only when your bored and given up hope.
