There is some CG blood here and there but it looks absolutely fine and never jars. The film climaxes with a 25-minute shoot-out which never fails to impress. I have no clue what the budget was for this movie, but you see every penny up on the screen with some incredible shoot-outs and surely a bodcount in the hundreds. This is the largest English-speaking part I’ve seen him do and it was a refreshing change to see him play a positive character who we completely root for.Īrmand Assante can sometimes ham it up when playing a villain however, Frank Pedulla is once again more interesting than you would expect due to his past with Agim so he isn’t just your one note antagonist. One of my favourite characters Agim Hoxha (Igor Jijikine) is a true blue hero and Jijkine is known mostly for playing villains in movies like Safe or Indiana Jones & the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
BRAVE 2 2019 MOVIE
I enjoyed the conversation where one of the characters talks about how Albanians are always portrayed as criminals in Hollywood movies and he would like to see them shown in a more positive light… which the movie then proceeded to do. Set in Albania this is quite different from your average actioner and starts off with a barnstorming opening sequence that nicely builds up the tension and establishes who our heroes and villains are. The underrated but always impressive Louis Mandylor stars and although he is your typical cop character who is trying to take down a local crimelord (Armand Assante) he has an interesting backstory like the rest of the characters. The Brave is no different and once again is another winner with some spectacular action set-pieces which are frankly more impressive than some theatrically released features. Review: I don’t think it’s possible for William Kaufman to direct a bad film even with a small budget he has always had a gift to make his movies look glossy and like they have triple their budget. Plot: In an Albanian town known for drug production and trafficking an elite group of cops set out to end the war waged against the local police. Now could we have Sinners & Saints 2, please? We never make a film at Pixar to have a sequel.The Brave is an under the radar actioner that deserves your time it’s currently on Netflix and has some impressive action and memorable characters proving once again that William Kaufman is one of the best action directors working today. "I don't know if there will be another one. "If we got the right story it would be fun - to get the gang back together again, add a few more new characters and find out what other Scottish talents are out there that might want to do a animated fun," he said. Either option would take time, and given the amount of work that goes into animated features, it would still be years before Brave 2 actually hit screens.Īt the moment, both Chapman and Andrews appear to be focusing on other projects, but in 2013, Chapman did tell The Scotsman he would be game for a Brave sequel if the right idea comes along. With neither director still at the studio, Merida's story would have to be handed over to someone else entirely, or Pixar would need to woo either Chapman or Andrews back. Since then, Andrews has also left Pixar, and is currently working on The Bad Guys for DreamWorks Animation. For six years, Brenda Chapman worked on Brave at Pixar before she was fired over "creative differences" and replaced by Mark Andrews, as reported by the Los Angeles Times.
