The Brave One

The Brave One

The first trailer for 'The Brave One' was a bit superficial and came off too much like a feminist take on 'Death Wish' cut for the new millennium -- and the tagline 'I want my dog back' right before Jodie Foster's character shoots a bad guy didn't help.

Trailer 2 promises more of a contemporary and layered suspense thriller. The secondary plot between Foster and Terrence Howard has sizzle -- Foster wants to confess her crimes and Howard knows she is the vigilante killer (or so I'm guessing) but neither character commits to action. This one has great potential for Story. I'm thinking Foster and director Neil Jordan have raised the bar.
