MOVIE REVIEW

Jodie Foster's The Brave One opened to the number one spot in the weekend, but was still regarded as a disappointment for the actress who expects openings twice as big as what this dark revenge thriller delivered. So why did audiences turn their back on her? It's simple: The Brave One is a dark revenge thriller that doesn't appeal to Foster's standard audience, but that doesn't mean it's not a quality film.
