The Brave One (2007 R)

   The movie stars Jodie Foster (Contact, Silence of the Lambs), Terrance Howard (Iron Man, Crash), Mary Steenburgen (Phildelphia, Nixon), and Naveen Anderson (Lost tv, Animals).
   The moive is about Foster who was attacked  and her boyfriend, Andrews, is killed in New York City.  Foster is a radio personality show after being attack becomes a vigilante.  She befriends Howard who is a cop.  Steenburgen plays Fosters boss at the radio station.
   I rated the movie a B+,A.  The scene where they are attacked for me is pretty graphic.  The scene is not too long but is pretty intense.  The movie is well acted by the two leads Foster and Howard.  They make the movie worth streaming.  For me a good thing about the movie was the fact that Foster was comming off making two movies with basicly the same plot.  Flight Plan and Panic Room Foster played a mother who has to save her daughter.  This move was far and away the best one of the three. The ending from what  I remember may be predictable but satisfying for me.
