Braven lets you see the studly Jason Momoa while we wait for Aquaman to hit theaters


Movie Title:      Braven

Grade:   C

Rating: R, 94 minutes

In a Nutshell: 
Directed by  Lin Oeding, this Canadian action flick is all testosterone.

Nothing like a relaxing winter day at the cabin.  Ha ha  My dad has a cabin in the mountains near Park City, so I kept imagining what we would have done if we had been in the same situation.  Die a horrible death, most likely.

                             

Tips for parents: 
  • Some profanity, including TONS of F-bombs.
  • Lots of brutal fighting.
  • Some bloody, gory deaths.
  • You see Jason Momoa shirtless.

Uplifting theme: 
  • Needed supplies at your cabin: ammo, guns, knives, bear trap, bow & arrow, a PHONE!
  • Family
  • Don’t do drugs.
                                                 
Things I liked:
  • Beautiful scenery and wildlife.
  • Wow, Jason Momoa is HUGE.  He even makes Stephen Lang look small in comparison. Until an AquaMan feature film from the Justice League comes to the big screen, I’m happy to see him in anything.  It’s fun to watch him kick bad-guy butt, but otherwise, the movie isn’t very good. Did you know he’s married to the petite Lisa Bonet?

                                                             





Things I didn’t like:
  • Dumb dialogue.
  • Some silly choices that make you scratch your head.
  • I really liked Garret Dillahunt in the TV sitcom Raising Hope: Season 1 by Fox, so it’s hard for me to take him seriously in a drama.
