... there's plenty about this tiny action effort to stand up and cheer.

An automatic type of action movie, often only challenging its predictability by getting goofier and goofier.

Rated: 2.5/4

The Last Thing I See

"Braven" scratches a very particular itch for those longing for the types of beefy-father-protects-his-brood pictures Schwarzenegger and Stallone turned out in the '80s. And Jason Momoa chucking axes at baddies is always a welcome sight.

Flickering Myth

Braven is the kind of 90s punch-in-the-mouth genre fans fight tooth-and-nail to find nowadays.

Started out ok. Then about halfway it just went downhill. The plot became more and more stupid. And by plot I mean killing of bad guys. 🤣

An surprisingly great survival thriller with strong direction by Lin Oeding (The Blacklist, Lifted) and a badass lead performance by Jason Momoa (Wolves, Road to Paloma)

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

A solid feel good action movie of family vs drug dealers set in a snowy wilderness. Momoa is solid, whom I previously enjoyed in the Frontier series.

Why doesn't Braven use Guns? Some shots feel comedic such as a bad guy saying he doesn't know where someone is while that someone is running in the background. The final move was impressive and reminds me of what aquaman does to save his son. It feels like Home Alone but with a better main villain.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Its pretty cheesy. If Jason Momoa hadn't been in it I wouldn't have bothered. Poor story and bad acting.
