The Brave One can at times be a brutal, violent and harrowing portrait of an over burdened system, where thugs rule the streets and the corrupt contaminate the upper echelon of society. It is also an un-original revenge/vigilante story.

They're trotting it around at all the festivals trying to distract everyone from how bad it is.

Foster does her best with a flawed story whose ending rings even less true than the rest of it.

Beautifully played, the tantalising accretion of mutual understanding between Foster and Howard is one of the film's strengths, yet the plot machinations required to lever it into position would overstretch credibility in the clunkiest action flick.

The Brave One is not merely the most morally repellent film of the year, but a contender for the stupidest.

I think The Brave One could have been a better film with a different ending, but it's still a well-crafted, thought-provoking story with outstanding performances.
