"On these streets, all you have is the guy next to you." Lionsgate has released an official trailer for an indie crime action-drama titled Blood Brother, the latest film from writer/director John Pogue (Quarantine 2: Terminal and The Quiet Ones). Not to be confused with the award-winning documentary from a few years ago also titled Blood Brother, this film is about an ex-con who takes murderous revenge against childhood friends whom he believes let him take the fall for a crime they committed together. One of the friends, now a cop, risks his life to stop him. Blood Brother stars music artist Trey Songz, along with Jack Kesy, China Anne McClain, Hassan Johnson, Tanee McCall, and Fetty Wap. These kind of crime+action+friends movies are becoming a dime a dozen nowadays, and none of them really seem they're worth anyone's time.

"I wasn't acting intoxicated. I had had a couple of drinks, but whatever, I was angry, and I used my vocabulary to kind of fight that."

Things have gone from bad to worse for Columbus Short, who has just been issued a restraining order at the urging of his wife Tanee McCall.
According to a report, the “Scandal” star attacked his lady on April 7th, holding a knife to her throat and demanding information about an affair he suspected her of having.
When Tanee denied the accusation, Columbus allegedly told her he would kill her and then turn the knife on himself in a murder-suicide.
As a result, Short will be forced to move out of his family’s home and not have contact with McCall. They also have a two-year-old daughter named Ayala.
Back in March, Tanee withdrew the divorce petition she filed the previous September. She has since re-filed the paperwork.

This is the Pure Movies review for The Losers (directed by Sylvain White and starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Zoe Saldana (Avatar), Chris Evans, Idris Elba, Columbus Short, Óscar Jaenada, Jason Patric, Holt McCallany, Peter Macdissi, Peter Francis James and Tanee McCall). There has been a plethora of ‘films based on comic books’ recently that for those of us not avid comic fans can be forgiven for getting a tad blasé about what to watch. Can we appreciate the adaptation of this graphic novel storyline as it stands, without prior knowledge of Andy Diggle’s artwork? In The Losers case, yes we can. It stands alone as an enjoyable, action-packed and slicker ‘copycat’ of The A-Team – hence it’s (unfortunate) nickname of ‘The B-Team’ - that has wisely been billed to run in cinemas before the former gets its 2010 revamp fairly shortly.
