    I found the brave one very interesting and good seeing Jodie Foster role. The attack scene i found was very bad and hurtful to watch, and can only feel for Erica Bain and her lost. Overall the film was very good, but i still wanted a bit more from it.

    Great acting from Jodie Foster and Terrence Howard. However, it's not as gripping as I thought it would be.

    It touched me deeply and I still sometimes thinks about it - going through the scenes again and again...

    I curently just got done watching The Brave One! I didn't think that this movie was going to be that good. But I loved it. It was a really depressing movie that made me cry but I would recomend this movie for a action/drama movie. It was one of those sad movies that you'll want to watch more than once.

    Just saw this last night. Meh..when will Jodie stop making these types of films and do something different? Typical angry female revenge flick.

    Jodie foster!! what a great actor She is. reminded me of meg ryan at a number of seens but with her own sexy looks and charm. this movie is pictureised around a really sad incident and a piece of reality from someone's life. which could happen to anyone and God forbids if it happens to anyone it will surely ruins one's life and way he/she persevies the world. that would result in the failure to acknowledge the boundries of human law and order and the world and will have only one purpose in life and that is will be to take revenge. its human nature we cant denie from it. its our nature to take revenge on whom has done wrong to us or our hurt our loved ones. i litterally cried at the end of the movie..i didnt know what to do or say. Only faith in God allmight and his plan made me stop the way i was thinking and that was what ever happens it happens for a reason and is a test in this life of our allegence and obedience to God and his commenmends. a must see and i would reoommend that movie to audience above 16 cause it has violence sex and facts of life that are way to complex for kids. the moral is taking revenge is human and its a slap on all the human right activists in favour of its violators. the the nature of punishment for cruelty is not to be decided by anyother than the victim and his family. and the justic dept has the obligatin of presenting the choice to the victims family and the victim.

    Okay...as soon as I left the theatre I wanted to purchase a hand gun. Uhm...why? Could think of a number of idiots that deserved to be popped off. Maybe I got the wrong message of the flick...maybe not.

    (spoiler alert!) in response to the previous comment, i have to say that that scene felt really weird to me at first too, but when i saw what they were doing with it, contrasting the beauty and intimacy that the two had shared with the horror and abuse of their attack... it is one of the scenes that has really stuck with me. incredible. HIGHLY recommended.

    What was up with that really weird montage of emergency room footage interspersed with sex scene?
    That was really hard to watch.

    I am desperate to watch this movie. Jodie is one classy intellegent actress and intense. I watched her in flightplan and I was sitting at the edge of my chair because you didn't really know if what you saw when she was boarding the plane was real or in her imagination. I won't say anymore in case you haven't seen flightplan yet. Her roles always show the dark side of her and it makes you wonder, lol.

    I was thinking the same thing. A female Death Wish? I still will see it as I love Jodie Foster. She might bring a fresh twist to the genre.
