Braven

They threatened his world. He will destroy theirs.


Braven
Joe Braven is a logging company owner who lives with his family in Canada. His father, suffering from dementia, mistakes a woman in a bar for his wife, prompting a bar-room brawl that lands dad in the hospital. The family decides to take a break at their secluded log cabin, where they run into trouble from a drug dealer who wants to use the logging business as a front for his cocaine operation. But they picked the wrong man to mess with.

What the Critics say

Cape Argus / The Star
Frank Scheck quote iconMomoa is the relatable everyman in 'Braven.'

24.com
Ilan Preskovsky quote iconIt's a film whose whole is less than the sum of its parts where all of its parts are equal, almost exactly, to zero. That it is entirely without humour or a sense of style is almost a given at this point but that it can't even do anything memorable or eye-catching with its beautiful, snowy forest setting is almost impossible to believe.
