The Brave One

The Brave One

Who's in it: Jodie Foster, Terrence Howard, Naveen Andrews

What's it about: Erica Bain(Foster) walks the streets of New York City. She does a radio talk show about the noises in NYC. She and her fiancé, David(Andrews), go for a walk and get beat up by some hispanics in the park. David doesn't survive and she is in a coma for 3 weeks. When she awakens, she goes to the police station for them to help her with her case. When they won't help her, she takes matters into her own hands. Detective Mercer(Howard) is the head investigation of the crimes she commits. He's on her heels and she's trying to cover it up

What I Think: This movie was actually very good. There were a few great quotes in it. Fear really is a part of our lives. Jodie Foster is one of the best actresses ever. I thought that she did an absolutely amazing job in this movie. Everything about her was so great. She played every scene with the greatest emotions in a movie that I think I've ever seen. I haven't seen much of Howard but he worked very well with Foster. Sad to see Andrews go so quickly in the movie. Plot and development is one of the best one's out. Recommended for all. There is a quick glipmse of nudity, but only for a few seconds.
