InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Sergeant Slaughter, My Big Brother" is a 12-minute movie from 4 years ago starring Tom Hardy when he was already fairly famous thanks to his turn in "Inception". The writer and director is Greg Williams and it has been his last work as a filmmaker so far. The story is about two grown-up brothers clashing when one of them decides to join the Foreign Army. This is obviously a drama movie, but I cannot say I was too thrilled or entertained by this one here. The only reason I believe this is somewhat known is because of Tom Hardy in the cast. With an unknown actor, this would probably be entirely unknown. The ending is okay with the music and how it's left open, but as a whole I do not recommend it.

mw2186 Paydirt is about three minutes in. *wide grin* I actually got more out of the trailer than the film but that could have been due to the fact that I couldn't concentrate after that waggle.Pity I'm not more of a critic here...or not. The man is incredible in Wuthering Heights and Lawless to name a few. Just a movie goer here but to me he has that gift of physically disappearing into a character. Especially that voice! No, it is NOT altered as Bane in Batman. Proud to say I first saw Daniel Day Lewis in My Left Foot and I will be proud to say I saw this man early on. Be safe, Mr. Hardy. Looking forward to many more years of incredible work.

Rodrigo Amaro And who was that said that all you need is two hours to make a good film? In its 13 minutes "Sergeant Slaughter, My Big Brother" goes to show so much more depth and interest than any feature film out there.Here comes a strangely funny story about two brothers and their relationship that is about to be changed when the older one decides to join the French legion leaving the younger behind to take care of his family and to defend himself from a bully. Tom Hardy plays Dan, the tough guy who is a little reluctant in going abroad for military training (he's going without his parents know about it), but he keeps training himself all day long and helps his young brother Keith (Ben Macleod) with his problems with this bully of whom we don't know why he attacks the poor boy.In conclusion what we get here is a story about learning on how to take care of difficult things and to take care of them by yourself, leaving fear behind. That's what both characters try to do. Sounds silly but when you watch the film you'll end up liking it and having a great time with such message and its humorous moments (sometimes not intended to be this way but the laughs come out anyway).Highly recommended for Tom Hardy fans, who have the chance of seeing him appearing naked right on the first scene. WOW! A really impressive and well made short film. 10/10
