My friend suggested i rent this movie so this weekend I did and I love it. Its such an interesting movie.
Brick is a film noir movie but first what's interesting about it is that it's set in modern times. All the character are teenagers but they act and talk like adults.No dumb teen slang.
The plot, characters and dialogue throughout the movie are really intense.The story is about this guy Brendan(junior in high school) who gets a call from his ex-girlfriend Emily (whom he still deeply cares for) that she's in trouble.He find her dead a day later and the movie is about him searching out what happened. To find out he has to infiltrate the drug culture of his town and discovers a piles of lies, corruption and distrust on his way to find the truth.
The soundtrack to the movie is also very chilling and leaves a great effect making you feel for the main character's (brendan) pain about losing his one devotion in life.
The movie is called Brick in reference to a brick of heroin which in the movie is mysteriously taken which cause even further problems.
The movie takes a lot of great turns and also has some funny points in it.Like when The drug dealer still living with a 50s style mother who's oblivious to her son.
I don't want to give too much away.It's got a great twist ending that I'm sure you'll all enjoy
So how many of you saw it? what'd you'd think of it?
If you haven't seen it I highly reccomend it
