Brake (2012)
Directed by Gabe
Torres this film stars Stephen Dorff, Chyler Leigh, JR Bourne and Tom
Berenger. A Secret Service agent awakes to find he is being held
hostage in boot of a car by people that want information from him.
Being able to pull off
a story that is essentially one person in a box for 95% of the film
is pretty impressive but most of that is undermined by the fact that
the story is a bit unbelievable. For someone that is supposed to be a
highly trained Secret Service agent the protagonist falls for a lot
of story elements that do not stand up to scrutiny. Given the
limitations of the story the film is well made and captures the
claustrophobia of the step up well.
2/5
