The Brave – Trailer

Whilst I was watching A Serbian Film the other day I got to thinking about Johnny Depp’s directorial debut The Brave.


Again, a very bleak story of a man who agrees to “star” in a snuff film in return for a large sum of money which will set his family up for life. It’s one hell of a premise and quietly upsetting throughout as Depp’s character spends his final days cherishing moments with his loved ones and taking revenge on those he feels has wronged him.
Gut-wrenching in places, but sadly I never felt it added up to the sum of its parts. A grandiose cameo from Marlon Brando aside the acting is a tad wooden and there is so much more drama to be squeezed from the tale.

If you’ve not yet seen it, it is worth a look and a classic example of a great premise/alright movie.

Here’s the Japanese trailer for it!
