Take a classic 1940s film noir murder mystery and throw it into modern times, make it revolve around drugs and high school kids, add some awesome handheld camera cinematography, and you have 'Brick'. I thought the acting was completely stellar from everyone involved, although the teens seemed a lot more mature and intelligent than real teens found in today's high schools. I think it would've bee... read more

"Throw one at me if you want, hash head. I've got all five senses and I slept last night, that puts me six up on the lot of you."

Brick is an interesting little flick, a motion picture that you admire and appreciate for its ambitions rather than conventionally love or enjoy. Independently financed and produced on a paltry budget, the film is the directorial debut of Rian Johnson, wh... read more

I really enjoyed this film. I hadn't heard much about it before I saw it and was a little bit surprised to see so many people complaining about how hard the dialogue was to follow. To me the dialogue fitted the theme of the film perfectly. Essentially this film follows children who are acting far older and more intellectual than they actually are. There are certain scenes which seem to remind you ... read more

Description: In a modern-day Southern California neighborhood and high school, student Brendan Frye's piercing intelligence spares no one. He's not afraid to back up his words with actions, and knows all the angles; yet he prefers to stay an outsider, and does - until the day that his ex-girlfriend, Emily, reaches out to him unexpectedly and then ...

"29.3. Ooo, I get it. It's like the teenagers are the adults from all the film noir movies and Hammett books. Brick is a some sort of satire of film noir. Still, I wasn't impressed with this film. "

"2nd viewing, Netflix 10 March 2013 Director: Rian Johnson Revisited this one after the Director's latest one, Looper. I like this one better because it doesn't have the Hollywood-feel to it which annoyed me in Looper. Strange in a nice way. "

“"Throw one at me if you want, hash head. I've got all five senses and I slept last night, that puts me six up on the lot of you."

Brick is an interesting little flick, a motion picture that you admire and appreciate for its ambitions rather than conventionally love or enjoy. Independently financed and produced on a paltry budget, the film is the directorial debut of Rian Johnson, who wrote the script in the mid-1990s and spent years trying to raise suitable financing. Ultimately amassing funds from friends and family, he set out to make the movie he wanted to make, and the result is a quality neo-noir thriller that has deservedly developed into a cult classic. In essence, Brick is a contemporary film noir inspired by old-timey detective stories as well as classic films like China” read more
