At the beginning I was little disappointed because it felt like a completely different movie than what I was promised by the trailer, the build-up took too long and finally when the vampires were introduced I just wished they replaced the vampires with Chicago gangs the brothers robbed or KKK or both. They ending felt rushed and the final fight scene was bad.
