Hottoceame The Age of Commercialism

Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Ersbel Oraph Drama for drama's sake.Very predictable. Maybe you can't see the ending, but surely you will know what goes next. So no thriller there.And it is slow. Maybe for the producer that meant moody. But everything goes in slow motion making the two hours absurd. A lot more could have been said in 90 minutes.The story is badly done. And the characters have to speak their thoughts so it would make some sense.And the stereotype is disgusting. The blind and destructive force a woman can be when she is left unmarried. The violent black thugs dressed in new sports gear - they have to steal to dress in those expensive branded clothing. The Asian guy selling the gun who is Asian because it's Chinatown.And everything has to happen in the same small area and about the same hour so we get the same detective. Who has probably seen the movie because he already knows it's the same person.And the main idea? The laws are there to hinder the good in their quest for justice. Right? A film for the hysterical white middle class behind iron doors. The victims are white. Sure, the policeman is the token black so nobody can accuse the producers of racism.Contact me with Questions, Comments or Suggestions ryitfork @ bitmail.ch

Renaud P First, a very well made movie, beautiful photo made by a very experienced french director, with some shooting high vertically. Secondly, the story itself, for me,very different from "Death wish". Different because of what the end of "The Brave One" raises more precisely such issues as what would be the best choice: to trust justice and institutions or to do oneself the job ? In "Death wish", it's overall, what Ch.Bronson does, make falling aggression statistics,so: why not; and he seems "to like" acting this way. Jodie Foster, on the contrary, seems to be shared between a revenge and the consciousness that she has not the right to kill a man, to do her own justice. To finish, she proves again that she's still a very good actress; too much seen in France these years. Cdly,

Olivier Roubieu Jodie Foster being my favourite actress, I was expecting something good, and Man, did she deliver! Both Jodie Foster's and Terence Howard's performances are absolutely flawless, they say more in their inner monologues than aloud, and when they do speak to each other the tension is incredible. The best way to describe it would be to imagine you're hanging off a cliff by a thin rope that you are chewing on because you're not sure whether or not you deserve to make it, so you're part sabotaging your own rescue. Everything works beautifully in this masterpiece, the script, the angles, the light, the directing but the acting...is outstanding! This film would have been OK or very good if other actors played the two leads, but thanks to those two, it's perfect, thank you!

Simply Phillip Brown 'The Brave One' tells the tragic story of Erica Bain, a middle-aged woman about to be married to the man of her dreams when she and her fiancé are brutally attacked and their dream is shattered. What happens next is a thrilling roller coaster ride of a vigilante getting even and bringing those responsible to death on her own. I love this movie and I put it up there on the list of Jodie Foster's most best stand out performances in her film history. Of course that's not a shock considering that she's great in everything, but this movie as a whole is powerful. Touching, genuine, and enthralling from start to finish, you would be doing yourself a favor by watching this movie.
