Review of Brake

Brake (I) (2012)
6/10
Solid film with ridiculous ending
26 July 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Another film where 98% takes place in one spot - guy wakes up in a glass coffin it turns out is in a moving car.

Interesting and holds your attention. Drama plays out and the stuff that happens is watchable. For having your whole movie in one spot, you have to have tension and drama and they manage to pull it off. You wonder the entire time "what would I do in this situation?" Me, who is massively claustrophobic, would probably cave in, in 5 minutes.

But the premise is okay and then it gets to the end. Then it completely falls apart. Believability at the very end goes out the window? That's all it takes? A glance? And you've figured it out? Makes zero sense. You see people here talking about how the ending sucks and it does.

Also, what happened to the bees? Somehow, despite the fact he's now lying on a bunch of dead bees, they have went away.

Where did the bees go?

Overall good but ending is terrible.
