Just kind of blah. It didn't really illicit any emotional response and obviously with the story it presented, it should have. The performaces weren't great by either Jodie Foster or Terrence Howard which is unusual. Just a bad script I guess...
Jodie Foster is absolutely one of the best actresses. a predictable revenge movie..
Jodie Foster loves playing strong women and no doubt it really suits her..one of the greatest revenge films ever
Un autre excellent film où Jodie Foster joue un rôle de battante, mais elle prend un rôle de justicière, ce que je crois est dépasser les limites...
This film was terrifc. Great performances, excellent screenplay and a thrilling tone that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
An impressively emotional nail-biter! Very slow at times - but that is just the pace it needs for the feeling to set right... It sat very very good with me!!
She isn't brave when she just goes down the street shooting people. Overall it was alright.
Jodie Foster is a fantastic actress, and on paper this is a good premise, it's a shame that it's as Hollywood and hollow and shitty as the next one, if you catch me. It's another ruined thriller, filled with "deep" and "meaningful" monologues that "don't" drag on forever.

It was a great movie. The story was spectacular it was really realistic and also the end was great. I love this kind of movies. Jodie Foster was spectacular as usually.
stupid how all jodie foster movies include her getting raoed or something. rape is not entertaining
Foster gave an excellent performance in a film that's not entirely original and yet not entirely trite. Sure, vengeance plots have been played numerous times, but this movie had a different feel. The cinematography irked me at times, but it eventually grew on me.
It's a good movie, with a good script and wonderfully acting. Psychological, makes you truly wonder about certain things. Of course they screwed the ending with some classic romanticism but it was ok.
*Yawn* If you're gonna do vigilante do it right. What a pretentious piece of crap.
"the brave one" is jodie foster's latest blockbuster breakthru by some art-house director neil jordan with the helpful upstaging thru charismatic terrence howard. so would "the brave one" be a smash hit? obviously, it sells well but would its crucial viewpoint be taken without be...( read more)
Jodie Foster gives great NPR voice. The rest of the movie is not so successful. Foster herself essays a noble performance, always interesting even when the movie is going to totally improbable narrative places. It's by her virtues that The Brave One is even watchable at all, beca...( read more)
Got to love a vigilante, especially in the form of Jodie Foster. She's kick butt.
Yes it's a dark movie but it's way better than a lot of other dark movies out there. How much do I love Terrence Howard in this role and Jodie Foster is amazing as always. They play off of each other very well each bringing a controlled talent to the table. I personally liked ...( read more)
Excellent thriller. Great cast. Erica (Jodie) is a radio presenter who is viciously attacked and her partner is killed in a random attack in the park. She finds herself on a killing spree, defending herself and others in a supermarket, subway and on the streets. She has a police ...( read more)
Incredibly powerful. This film struck home on so many levels and has left me thinking about the stranger I have become within myself in the wake of trauma.
Good! I believe that if something like that would happen to you, one would also become someone else- a stranger. Not that I agree with the kind of revenge Jodie Foster is taking but I can understand if people will do...
This female version of "Deathwish" turned out to be much better than I thought. The inciting incident hooked me automatically and kept me interested up to the end. The plot was well-thought out and the story moved at a decent pace to keep the viewer intrigued. Foster is excell...( read more)
I loved this movie up until the last 15 minutes. I just don't get why there is this trend in Hollywood of making endings that are designed to appeal to the audience instead of making endings that are reasonable. I don't want to spoil anything, so let's just say I would have done ...( read more)
havent seen one of the best actressess in hollywood "jodie foster" in a new movie...and i did now and the movie was good..however Jodie didnt deserve the golden globe nod..however also the movie suites Jodie calm character and how she emerged to be a lesbain..the ending could hav...( read more)
not all the guilty should receive the death. How this movie made danger we live in the streets of the city.
An interesting take on revenge. A good portrayal of how far someone would go for the person they loved
I watched it and homegirl kinda' went off the chain there...I sensed a little insanity coming on
I didn't enjoy his film, although theres action, Jodie foster annoys me in it!
achei que fosse mais focado na ação... a história demooooora pra se desenvolver. me deu sono n.n"
Not to be confused with the...family-mushy film of the 50's,this...well...how to exclaim it..revenge topic comes off clean for the sadists of the genre.
If you ask me though,personally...Jordan must defend his reputation in the Worldwide Court of Film Industry and resuscitate his...( read more)
