IMDb rating for this movie is shameful and tells more about the superficial taste of today's audience than the quality of the movie itself. This is one of the most beautiful and at the same time most dreadful movies I ever saw. The screenplay, directing and lead actor - Johnny Depp, music - Iggy Pop, and the fact that Marlon Brando agreed to participate says enough. The story itself could be told in just a few sentences, so do not expect much of action. The movie is slow, rough and crushing and it is more about evoking a psychological atmosphere than telling a story. The cast is great, music too, and the way Depp pulled off the role and directing, in my opinion, makes this movie his lifetime achievement. 10/10

Yeah, yeah, yeah. All you ridiculous "let's go to the theater to watch the latest Bruckheimer"-kids should never watch this masterpiece and if they do they should better keep their mouths shut. Why can't they just get rid of their "Oh Johnny's so cute but somehow I don't like his movies"-attitude. This movie is so intense and so beautiful and Depp once again proved he is one of the last REAL artists in that greedy money-machine called Hollywood. This film is art! It's a little bit "Jarmuschish" a little bit "Lynchish" but in the end it's all "Deppish". I'm sure a lot of people are just disappointed cause they didn't see any spectacular snuff-movie scenes. Well, sorry for that. But you should think about the philosophy of this film before judging it.

I thought this was an excellent movie! Johnny Depp plays an indian who has a wife and two children living in poverty. The only way he sees out for his family is to sell himself to Marlon Brando so he can see what a painful death looks like. So for $50,000, Rafael (Depp) agrees to be Brando's guinea pig. In his last week with his family, Rafael learns to live again and love his family. At the end of the week, he has to go back to this warehouse, where he knows he will be killed. The most interesting segment of the movie is the meeting between Rafael and the priest who he asks help from in making sure his family gets the money after he's gone. It becomes a moral dilemma for the priest and yet in the end, the priest comes through for Rafael. This is a movie not to be watched without tissues!

i find it extremely saddening this movie has not been shown in the united states, though i understand johnny depp's refusal to show it due to negative reviews. in my humble opinion it must take a seriously incompetent critic to say anything bad about this movie. i feel truly fortunate to have seen it while vacationing in europe, even though the movie is so profoundly disturbing...like a great piece of art that touches you in the deepest places and leaves you feeling bewildered... johnny depp is at the top of my list - i always enjoy seeing his performances. his magnetism, charisma and "just something so different about him" stretch far beyond of what any other actors possess - well, at least in my book.

Depp was superb as the director and the star. Some find the movie to be to slow and/or to long. Not so unless, a person is into car chases, kick boxing and explicit sex. Please be aware this movie had the most sensual scene between a man and his wife I have ever seen and I doubt anyone will ever top it. Anyone who does not understand or appreciate what Depp was attempting to depict is shallow and/or dense. Excellent movie! I feel "The Brave" deserves the respect of the American movie public. It is really pathetic the movie was panned so badly that Depp refused to release it in the United States.

Depp reaches an excellent metaphor of the economic system in which we live. The main issue: the exchange of a human life for money; the exchange of happiness for plastic items; the exchange of a beloved one for some material security; the opportunism of those who see in the human needs, an opportunity of profit, are poetically powerful and striking on this film. Beyond the ethnic level of the film, which might be a bit overrepresented and idealized, this is a great film. No wonder that some people in the USA are still not prepared for such a challenging artistic an philosophical confrontation with the reality of their own culture.

Given that "The Brave" was based on a novel with a fascinating but disturbing concept, it could and should have been an excellent movie. Depp's direction is competent, the acting overall is good, but the film is overlong and poorly structured. The opening sequences give no hint whatever of what is to follow, and even the Brando character's payment of $50,000 in cash tells the viewer little. Is Depp supposed to come back in a week and carry out a contract killing? Who knows? Who cares? The closure was well handled, and the film would have been weakened if it had gone on to show the main character's suffering and death. But the film would have benefited from a brief glimpse at the very start, or at least an intimation, of what would happen at the end. It's not surprising that many viewers found the film boring. The pace is desperately slow, and much of the film has one itching to press the fast-forward button.
