"the Brave One" and Philosophy

 Amir Ragporker's Philosophical views about "The Brave One"
The main philosophical song in "The Brave One" is the sudden urge for Revenge. But in a weird way the movie isn't about revenge. It's more about friendship and peace. A peaceful mind. Judie Foster's character needs a peaceful mind that's why she starts doing those killings. Everyone should support this woman, because she does something the police can't.
It brings us to a question what is right and what is wrong. Is it okay to kill a human being for being bad? Can a person kill another human being after he did something bad to him?
Lets someone beats you and you kill him. Is it okay? what if someone makes you feel really bad after he dumped you cruelly and you decide to kill him. In both cases it is actually the same pain. One is physical that other is emotional but sometimes the emotional pain is far stronger then the physical.
So the movie brings us with this question and actually doesn't answer it. The Detective was hurt or in a way was beaten by the law system and by his ex-wife. But did he go into a killing streak thanks to his rage? All around the movie he felt bad, his life is full of shit. But he doesn't go to kill anyone.
This movie is somewhat related to Charliz Theron's movie, "Monster", a serial killer which due to bad circumstances found herself popping people.
In "The Brave One", although the rage is against all people for both races. Foster actually deals only with men, she kills only men. People might believe it is certain luck, but I believe it was a screenwriter's place. He wanted to show that men are far more aggressive then women. Men are bad but women are cool. The Detective finds this knowledge not to be true, he is hurt by a woman.
Does that means Women hurt men through their heart and Men hurt women physically? Women have only one power on men, that's emotions, men are more physical and are there to protect women with their bodies.
According to this movie, A woman without a man is no woman at all. Foster's replacement for a man is a gun. The moment there is a connection between the Detective and Foster she thinks about leaving the gun behind.

By: Emmitt01 | 13-07-2008
I work with this drop dead gorgeous girl that i am madly in love with and we are just getting to know each other but she has a boyfriend. She revealed to me that they never go out because he always wants to play sports and she watches him play all day long. I have never had any problems talking to girls until now because I am no where as good looking as she is I mean if I got her it would be the biggest miracle ever. I want to see her happy and never sad but I feel she would be happiest with me, I don't believe in breaking up a relationship unless it is necessary but this is one time I cant stop thinking about her and breaking her and her boyfriend up so she can be mine. What do I do?
