Summary: DONT BUY - YOULL HATE IT
Review: I have seen this movie about 10 times. I remember when it originally aired on television and I loved it.Keanu was very young and a little chunky and Kiefer was sorta sexy. I actually have this movie on vhs from when I taped it off the television. This is not a fantastic masterpeice of film; however, if you are a die hard Keanu Reeves fan, you will like it. When I saw it on dvd,I immediately placed it on my wish list.

Summary: Not for Kiefer
Review: If you are planning to buy this because it may look as if Kiefer is a main star then DONT. I was extreemly disapointed to find that he was only on this for less than ten minutes total. Billy Zane was in it more.

Apart from that I felt like I should smack myself over the head with the remote control every five minutes just to keep myself sane. It was very boring.

Summary: RETURNING VIOLENCE WITH VIOLENCE ONLY MAKES THINGS WORSE
Review: If you have children, this would be a very good movie to teach them a lesson with.

Talented Keanu Reeves convincingly plays Derek, a quarterback and natural born leader of a group who later call themselves "The Brotherhood of Justice." They form after a senior high school meeting led by the Principal, discusses vandalism and thefts going on at their school. He doesn't realize he is doing it, but he's really what started this "mess" in the first place.

The "revenge" begins controlled. It actually makes sense at first; but violence just grows like a brush fire. Each "punishment" by the brotherhood gets more violent. Derek, played by Keanu, calls it stops and not a second too late.

The ending is very good; parents will be proud to see justice done. I recommend you sit down and watch this entire movie with your children, explaining and answering questions as the movie progresses. There are some excellent role models to watch; not only Keanu Reeves, but Lori Loughlin and Kiefer Sutherland as well.

"The Brotherhood of Justice" is rated M for mature audiences. Whether you're an adolescent, teen or adult (single or married); everyone can relate to and get something out of this movie. I highly recommend buying this one.

Summary: If you like Keanu, you must buy this!!
Review: Keanu gives a good early performance as the rich boy vigilante Derek, who never puts a foot wrong.

He's the high school joke, has a great girlfriend and life is sweet.

But for him and his gang of 'do gooders' that isn't enough. They want to rule the world and won't let anything stand in their way.

The end doesn't justify the means and they get caught in the end...

My favourite line is 'I don't mean to burst your bubble' when Derek's younger idealistic brother asks him if he's in 'The Brotherhood'. How the young look up to their elders

Kellye Joy is right in saying that youngsters should see this lesson is morals. It will give them a sense of right from wrong.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: No Ted Logan here!
Review: Keanu Reeves really nailed down this part as a Harvard bound, high school quarterback who leads a group of vigilantes in the mid 1980s. Kieffer Sutherland also stars but has nothing much to do but steal Keanu's character's girlfriend. This movie is a must see for Keanu fans.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Keanu as A Vigilante
Review: Thankfully, I got this DVD pretty cheap, cos I wouldn't have liked to buy it at full price. I got it as one of four - along with 'Along For The Ride', 'Across The Tracks' and 'Deadfall'. I never knew Brotherhood of Justice was a TV 'movie' until the credits started - you know how a TV movie always has those horrible credits? No wonder I couldn't find anything about it in cinema stuff.

It's your basic storyline: a few guys think they can rid their school of all the lowlifes and drug dealers and what not. They think they're the police. They take it upon themselves to do this, and it all goes horribly wrong.

Keanu Reeves is the main focus of the film, playing Derek. He has a girlfriend, and he seems to me, to be totally possessive of her. Having to see her during school, meet her for lunch, meet her after school, meet her after work . . . And then acts all jealous when she starts working with Kiefer Sutherland's character, who wouldn't be that much of a [danger], until Derek started acting [silly]. You could tell that relationship would go into meltdown pretty quickly.

Most of this film's actors were unknowns, though some of them went on to become big in the movie world. Billy Zane (who becomes the big head during Brotherhood of Justice) went on to star in the 'Back To The Future' trilogy, that film with Nicole Kidman 'Dead Calm', and played the snooty Cal Hockley in 'Titanic'. Kiefer Sutherland has made a name for himself recently, starring in the TV series '24'. And Keanu Reeves . . . Well; I could go on forever with him, couldn't I? He has starred in a few turkeys in his time, and has made a name for himself from movies such as 'Speed', 'Johnny Mnemonic', 'Matrix', 'A Walk In The Clouds', and the 'Bill & Ted' movies. You decide which ones were the turkeys!

Contrary to what SOME people say, Keanu Reeves is not "wooden" in all his films. Although, I'm sorry, to say, he is in this film. In his defence, it was one of his early films. He acts wooden, and his lines are just spoken without any emotion. And with that bad 80s haircut, and clothes . . .

This film isn't really worth watching, unless you're a big fan of Keanu Reeves. It won't be easy to find either, considering it's a TV movie, and is not well known.
