Description

“Why don’t they stop me?” Erica Bain wonders. Bain, a popular radio host, watched her fiancé die and nearly lost her own life in a vicious, random attack. Now she is a stranger to herself, an armed wanderer in the urban night, ridding New York of the thugs she sees at every turn. And no one, it seems, can stop her. Two-time Academy Award® winner Jodie Foster as Erica and Academy Award® nominee Terrence Howard as a dogged cop with his own psychic wounds to heal join director Neil Jordan (The Crying Game) and producers Joel Silver (The Matrix trilogy) for this jolting, high-tension thriller that has a lot on its mind. And a gun in its hand.

    Jodie's acting in this movie is excellent. The story line and plot is excellent and kept me captivated throughout the entire movie. There are not a lot of movies that I can say have done the same lately. But this really impressed me. Some scenes are quite violent, but the movie doesn't focus on that and has a very strong edge and story line to back it all up. Highly Recommend 5*****
  • Excellent.

    This film is excellent, in terms of action, suspense and raw acting talent it is at the top of it's genre. If you like tense, gory, revenge thrillers then you'll love the brave one. This is a must buy. 5/5 without question.

    Ok, I'M normally pretty critical of films but from the off this is a captivating and truly unusual film. It draws you in; to a world of passion, compassion, rational and irrational human feelings with subtle and brilliant performances from Foster and is brilliantly and sensitively directed by Neil Jordon. This film has for me what I hope to find in a great film - it transpots you somewhere you've not been before. I'm here to buy the last song, so I can hopefully re live that place. Great, just great.
  • Powerful stuff

    Jodie Foster is absaloutely remarkable in this movie of revenge, murder and love. She really makes you feel for her character and the pain that she is going through. The movie is pretty bloody but it's the launguage that gives the movie an 18 rating. A really grown up story that will keep you entertained on of the edge of your seat till the very end. Be the brave on and buy this now!
