The Brave One
“The Brave One” starring Jodie Foster and Terrence Howard opened this weekend at Northside Cinema II. I’ve been waiting to see this movie for a while. Two great actors, a good director and a vigilante movie to boot should make for a great movie. Well, sort of anyway.
Foster plays radio talk show host Erica Bain, who has a great life in New York, complete with a fiancé and a hit radio show. Howard portrays a sympathetic cop who is frustrated by the system when a notorious gangster that he has been trying to nail eludes his grasp once again.
After the initial character setup the plot enters when Foster is severely beaten and her fiancé is brutally killed at night by a group of thugs while walking their dog in the park. She recovers physically but is left with an emotional void when the police seem uninterested in her plight to find the killers.
