Review by anonymous (posted on 11-Oct-2006)

Brick is GENIUS. It didn't lose me for a minute. Brendan is a god-like mixture of bravery and razor intellect. He's a highschool student who is hunting his ex-girlfriend's killer. He throws out slang I've never heard (yet I'm old)and uses private detective speak in lightning fast conversations. You really have to listen. The part calls for an actor who isn't light in the brain either and Joseph Gordon-Levitt is fast off the mark. He's goodlooking enough to withstand perilous camera angles but still convinces one he's the passionately stirred introvert. He's all fight but keeps his hands in his pockets, dangerous and nearly unstrung beneath his curly hair and glasses. I'm not out to tell the story here, just to say watch the movie, especially if you've had a little too much American Pie lately.
