What critics compared The Brave One to
Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) (2020)
Directed by Cathy Yan
Plot
I even love Neil Jordan's widely-derided The Brave One , which hung issues of assault and miscegenation on the framework of what is essentially a superhero origin story, years before it was stylish to do so.
The Dark Knight finites the concept though (to far more lasting effect than Neil Jordan�s pretentious The Brave One last year) and has its villain do what another Gotham-esque hero preached and that�s (paraphrasing) �taking the battle to us.�…
(Neil Jordan's The Brave One may be a much more intelligent, reasoned film than, say, Death Wish 3, but which one would you rather watch after a bad day at the office?)
