There, she encounters Detective Sean Mercer (played by Terrence Howard, another talented actor), a smart cop who recognizes Erica because of her local radio show, of which he happens to be a fan. On her second foray of vigilante revenge, Erica takes the risk of sticking around while the police investigate the double homicide she just committed against two black thugs who threatened her life. Erica decides she likes the power and feeling of justice she gets from doing this and seeks out other criminals.
The first chance she gets, Erica blows away an angry man who just murdered his girlfriend while the girl is working at a corner mini mart.
She buys an illegal handgun and, with her microphone in tow, starts roaming the streets and subways at night instead of during the day. The thugs mercilessly beat David to death and Erica into a coma.Įrica finally comes out of the coma, but her whole attitude as well as her life has been changed. When Erica and David go to search for their dog, they encounter a group of inner city thugs who have tied up their dog on his leash. The dog chases a ball under a tunnel bridge but doesn’t return. One early evening, Erica and her live-in fiancé, David, take a jaunt to Central Park with their large dog. THE BRAVE ONE stars the talented Jodie Foster as Erica Bain, an artsy radio pundit in New York City who broadcasts poetic musings about the city and its people. Like its predecessor, it is rated R, which means that THE BRAVE ONE not only contains very strong violence but also plenty of very strong foul language, an explicit sex scene and brief sexual nudity.

(PaPa, B, C, LLL, VVV, SS, NN, A, D, MM) Strong pagan worldview ultimately endorses revenge and vigilante justice and has a matter-of-fact, briefly titillating attitude toward pre-marital sex and cohabitation, with some moral elements, especially regarding the terrible effect that violent crime and wicked criminals have on victims and on society, plus a cross on a necklace has some positive emotional and symbolic connotations 64 mostly strong obscenities (at least 30 “f” words), five light profanities, and woman gets sick in toilet strong and very strong violence with some blood includes pointblank murder shootings, man and woman brutally beaten and kicked, fight with crowbar includes some beating, speeding car hits young woman and knocks her down, and threats of violence brief sex scene between unmarried but engaged couple in bed, brief mostly crude references to prostitution and engaged couple lives together brief upper female nudity and partial rear nudity alcohol use smoking and violent crime victim takes pain pills or pills for depression but throws them out eventually and, thugs steal dog, cop fakes evidence, and revenge and vigilante justice are ultimately validated.
When this moral failure is coupled with the movie’s extensive use of foul language and a nude unmarried sex scene between the heroine and her boyfriend, THE BRAVE ONE rates an unacceptable “excessive” rating from. At the end, it also endorses vigilante justice and violent revenge without much, if any, ambiguity. THE BRAVE ONE is an exciting, emotionally riveting thriller, but is sometimes pretentious and corny with too many coincidences. Her revenge against the evil men who ruthlessly murdered her boyfriend put that friendship to the test. She becomes friends with the detective investigating her vigilante shootings. The first chance she gets, Erica blows away an angry man who murdered his girlfriend while the girl works at a corner mini mart. It stars Jodie Foster as Erica, a radio show street poet in New York City who buys an illegal gun after thugs mercilessly beat her fiancé to death and her into a coma.
