Can you explain the meaning of 'guns blazing' and ' stretched to breaking point' ?

Thank you.

Answer

Literally, guns blazing means a lot of shooting or gun fights. Figuratively, it can mean there is a lot of energy or action in the movie, like explosions or car chases.

Stretched to the breaking point means something is pushed hard and is very close to breaking.
In the movie, events happen to the characters that changes their friendship (bond) with each other. Will the characters remain friends or will their relationship break?

Answer

1.  Lots of shooting scenes.

2.  The brotherhood bonds are severely tested, nearly to the point of betrayal.
