The Brave One
New York radio host Erica Bain (Jodie Foster) has a life that she loves and a fiance she adores. All of it is taken from her when a brutal attack leaves Erica badly wounded and her fiance dead. Unable to move past the tragedy, Erica begins prowling the city streets at night to track down the men she holds responsible. Her dark pursuit of justice catches the public's attention, and the city is riveted by her anonymous exploits. But with the NYPD desperate to find the culprit and a dogged police detective (Terrence Howard) hot on her trail, she must decide whether her quest for revenge is truly the right path, or if she is becoming the very thing she is trying to stop.
Watched it on Saturday, so here's the review on it...
The story itself is very interesting, as Erica Bain (Jodie Foster) seemed to have it all, love, career, only to lose it all after an attack at a park which leaves her unable to work and her lover dead. On the road to recovery, she battles with her inner fears and therefore purchasing a gun for protection. She kills someone in self-defence not long after and everything bad seemed to be attracted to her. The killings grew more and more and she was labelled a vigilante. Very soon, her lust for revenge was kindled and she starts searching for the perpetrators who made her lose everything. On the way, she befriends a "good cop" (Terrence Howard) who gets suspicious of her vigilante ways and tries to stop her just as she finds the ones responsible for her plight.
The story ends with an predictable ending but with an unexpected twist... What happened? I would suggest you watch it and find out.
I think Jodie Foster should win an award for such marvelous acting!
MY VERDICT:
Walao... You muz be really "niao" download such a good movie.
