AKA: Blood Brothers. Action Drama. Estranged siblings have to undertake a dangerous challenge in Mexico to inherit an estate. Starring John Cena, Ethan Embry, Boyd Holbrook, Lela Loren, Jack Conley, Michael Rispoli, Dylan Kenin, Gregg Henry, Josh Berry, River Shields, Rio Alexander. Filming locations: Albuquerque, Cerrillos, Lindsay Ranch (San Pedro, Santa Fe County), Sandia Park, Zia Pueblo.


The interesting thing about this movie is how easy it was to determine filming locations in the first half of the movie, and how damnable difficult it was to determine filming locations in the second half of the movie. It just shows that I'm not familiar enough with the BLM and Zia lands south and west of San Ysidro, and in the Ortiz and San Pedro Mountains.



Notes on Individual Scenes
