SWF seeks thugs to kill.After a traumatic New York incident, Jodie Foster's Erica Bain is not what she used to be or what she thinks she used to be. Or she totally lost it. The unfortunate incident brings out the blood thirsty vigilante in her and nothing stays the same anymore.
I don't know since when but Foster has come to represent on the big screen the intelligent white female who refuses to be victimized and more than often a fearsome motherly protector of the young and helpless, think "Panic Room" and "Flightplan." Foster just can't do no wrong or so it seems. She is the only female star in today's Hollywood that can actually open a movie.
Disclosure: I have not seen the movie "The Brave One," but that doesn't prevent me from writing about it. The movie is rated R for rather silly one liner.
Read what A.O.Scott has to say.
