What our customer's say!

"Very good movie", The Brave One has lots of action, drama, and suspense.
It will keep you on the edge of your seat.

"Strong performances don't overcome cliches", Usually Foster chooses roles that are a bit different. I'm assuming because her character faces a devasting loss and stripped of her confidence she chose to this movie. The problem is not with Foster though who is always good. Although I sympathized with her character it still felt like her vigalante methods were not a good way to heal. Howard also is good as the cop who gets frustrated when the bad guys get away with murder. See it for the performances, but I didn't see anything new here about street justice. The message seemed to be that it's a good way to right the wrongs.

"laughable", oh my god, I love Jodie Foster and yet felt like she was asleep throughout this movie. A frustrating waste of time.

"Oy what a downer", Violent and pointless. It will make you afraid to step foot in NYC, with it's portrayal of random street and subway violence. Also, Nicky Katt, one of my fave actors, has just a bit role.

"The Brave One - You can never be the person you were", The Brave One was an excellent film which deserves a five star rating. Besides the very excellent action story featuring an abundance of action and violence, this story has a lot to say about never being able to return to who you were prior to being made the victim of a violent crime.

The story makes a convincing case for the idea that extreme trauma almost always prevents one from returning to that innocent "person", or possessing that tranquil state of mind he or she believed they were in prior to being a victim of violence. That person is dead and gone, always replaced by a new person having no "illusions" or ideals about safety, truth or justice.

The question is how to proceed from that point on. The idea that revenge and violence is inescapable is troubling, but I don't believe it to be necessarily true as Jodie Foster's character emphatically did. Nevertheless, this story was a chilling and exciting roller coaster of a film and I recommend it for all fans of action movies as well as wonderful Jodie Foster.

"A little confused by the ending", I liked most of this movie. A variation on the Charles Bronson movies of the 70's and 80's for revenge killings after a family member is killed. Jodi Foster does a great job as usual portraying a victim that fights back. And she is also vunerable as she exposes herself to danger in order to avenge those who can't or won't.

But the ending left me wondering a few things. As we know from television New York city has CSI investigators. If evidence is collected from a triple murder as it might very well be, how did the last victim holding the murder weapon put a bullet into the back of his own head while laying on the floor? Also, he should have GSR (gun shot residue) on his hand from pulling the trigger but he never fired the gun? Since Jodi Foster handled the clip as well as the gun, it would seem logical her prints might be on the gun parts not rubbed clean by the detective covering for her.

Just a few loose ends I think a good CSI would find. What prompted the detective to go to the scene of the crime since he had no real reason to go find that suspect again without new evidence.

Otherwise minus these short comings it is a pretty good film overall.

"Get real. Read this please.", Just to add to what others thought about the film. I think its strange how for 30 years, nothing happens to the lady. Then all of a sudden, her husband is beaten to death and she dies for three weeks. The next 3 months she has instances where someone was going to kill her or harm her 3 times completely unrelated to her first encounter. WTF? She blowes them all away and walks! What is up with the sudden bad luck like that (or good luck too)? And the ending? Don't get me started. This movie is totally unbeleivable. I got the point, I guess. Watch out who you try to kill or harm. There may be a lady one day who will blow you away with an illegal gun. So whatch out thugs!

"Satisfied", I was very pleased with the movie....it came packaged like new as advertised. Also I received it in just a few days...good service

"Tense and complicated story of a female vigilante", I didn't expect much from this 2007 film. But Jodie Forster was in it and she's such a fine actor that I love seeing her work on the screen. She's cast as a vigilante who takes out revenge on all the bad guys who come her way. The acting is so good, however, that I soon forgot that this was a formula film. Jodie Forster seems to actually live the psychological terror and helplessness that befall her after her fiance is brutally beaten to death as they walk their dog in Central Park. Yes, the bad guys are all stereotyped. I expected that. And it reflects a scary New York of random violence that existed about 15 years ago and which is different today. But it didn't take me long to relate to her and, to the director's credit, he kept the scenes short so they didn't weigh down the film. Terrance Howard, cast as an understanding cop, is someone I admire too. As the bad guys start dropping he soon becomes suspicious and his relationship with Forster is tense and complicated.

Even though I knew the general outline of the plot, I was never bored for a minute. This is not a great film, but has great acting and a fast paced plot. I certainly recommend it.


""The Bad One"", The premise of this movie is a good one: Erica Bain (Jodie Foster), a public radio essayist, and her fiance, David (Naveen Andrews), are violently attacked in Central Park one night by a couple of hoodlums. David doesn't survive, and Erica remains unconscious for weeks before finally reemerging in a new world where she finds herself completely alone. Afraid but determined never to be a victim again, Erica purchases a firearm illegally, and soon finds herself threatened by a man in a convenience store. Erica uses her gun to protect herself, and finds that the only way she can cope with her new life is to go around New York City and take out a bunch of bad guys vigilante-style.

Foster delivers an excellent performance in this movie, as usual, and Terrence Howard is great in his role of a police detective. Unfortunately, though, there are so many things about this movie that are completely far-fetched, from the outrageous number of dangerous situations Erica finds herself in day after day to the behavior of Howard's character when he finds out exactly what Erica's been up to. It's very disappointing, because "The Brave One" has all the makings of a really great movie, but the script itself is really stupid in places, and that ruined the whole film for me. The best thing about the movie is that Erica's dog ends up okay at the end, and that's about all I really cared about by the time the film was over. What a waste of two hours of my life (and of Jodie Foster's talent)!
