A biting and seedy look at NY street and drug life ....
In this movie we follow two very different brothers raised by an alcoholic street walking mother ... One brother manages to overcome the adversity of his upbringing always striving for a long term goal, while the older brother takes a more hedonistic look at life and doesn't really plan further than tomorrows thrill .....

This certainly is one of the hands down best depictions of how drugs really ruin your life and your loves ... it certainly must be noted that this 1977 is NOWHERE close to the violent drug movies of today where we are treated to super close up shots of users inserting heroin needles ....

Bit typical story but still the best!
I believe the plot of A BROTHER"S KISS, sort of typical
Hong Kong gangster movies very 80's theme..like brotherhood, drugs and violence..with very tragic tales however the director
Seth Zvi brought heart warming moments with great actors' performance...worth to see it anytime!

excellent acting and cast
the cast is great and so is the storyline.Cathy Moriarity does an excellent job,John Leguizamo is great,Marisa Tomei is masterful, and Rosie Perez is simply the best. The story of two brothers going seperate ways in life into a dramatic conclusion that is simply an original heatfelt film.

realistic, sad and gritty
This was an incredibly moving and hard hitting film. The realistic and raw dialogue kept me transfixed as the relationships of this family are explored without the easy use of cliche's.

Depressing, slow moving.
I found this very depressing and was disappointed in it overall because of this. I saw it mainly to view Adrian Pasdar's performance and that was also very disappointing. He was only on screen for a few moments and he was the best thing about this film. ... Read more

Not bad, not necessarily good either
Only the talent of guys like John Ritter and Eric Roberts can keep you interested in this slow-moving attempt at a suspense drama. Ritter and family are on vacation when they are conned, kidnapped, robbed and terrorized. With Eric Roberts as a villain it sounds like it would be good. Unfortunately Roberts isn't as intense as he was in The Specialist. What's even worse is instead of being scary they make him talk with a twirpy voice that gets obnoxious really fast. What were they thinking? John Ritter is good as always but there isn't much for him to work with. It would've been nice to see him get more revenge than he does in this movie. The premise of is very similar to the far superior Kurt Russell movie Breakdown which I recommend checking out instead. If you are a die-hard fan of Roberts or Ritter though, it should keep your attention. Keep in mind it's a low-budget direct-to-video movie and you get just what you would expect.

Eric Roberts scary in suspense thriller
Sometimes I rent a tape because I like the actor. I like Eric Roberts and give his new movies a try. He is a really evil kidnapper in this. Excellent suspense and direction. Even the script was good. This is the sort of suspense thriller that Hollywood used to make which relied on good acting and writing to entertain the audience instead of fireballs and car crashes. I really recommend this. Roberts plays one of the scariest villains in recent memory. ... Read more

Worst movie ever
I normally would not write a review, but I am ashamed to say that I lost two hours of my life to this obscenely horrible movie. I would have had a better time if I had stabbed myself in the eye five times and tried to bandage it with a soldering iron. If you are looking for a reason to kill yourself, Sonic Impact is the movie for you. Not only was there no Sonic Impact, there was no impact at all. Terrible plot and horrible character development, add to a low budget thriller that I would use to punish my children if they were to pee on the kitchen floor. Ice T was by far the best actor in this movie. If that doesn't give you an impression of its quality, then you probably can't read or write. If you enjoyed Chill Factor, Dante's Peak, or Canadian suspense movies... this movie is for you. I am dumber from seeing this movie. May god have mercy on my soul.

The sky could not be more deadly
I first saw this movie when i was in Dubi in a movie theater and when i saw the movie poster i was surprised because i have never heard of this movie. It is a direct to video release for the U.S. After the credits rolled through thats when i realized this is not going to be a big budget movie. Overall it was a really good movie. I reccomend it for people looking for a date movie to rent. ... Read more
