I’ve been relaxing with
a movie. And Im thinking, agggh, how can a director spoil such a wonderfully
crafted and acted movie? Same theme as ‘Buried’ but fast-paced and unpredictable
– a couple of aspects that ‘Buried’ lacked. I just finished watching this movie
‘Brake’ and how I wish I had not watched the last five minutes! The twist was superb, the kind I never saw
before, the kind that makes you grip the carpet with the tips of your toes and
ultimately heave a sigh of relief. But then, another twist came. A twist within
a twist! A sick, awful twist that spoiled what could have otherwise been a perfect
thriller. And I hate the director for doing that! Actor Stephen Dorff pulled
off an incredibly great performance in this film but the sense and story is
lost in those stupid five minutes at the end. I felt like my intelligence was being
undermined.
