Redbelt

I saw this movie with my brother. My brother lives in San Jose and he was visiting for mother's day I think. This was a cool movie. I think Mamet wrote and directed it. The plot fit together pretty well and it delt with macho fighting issues, but also creative ideas and doing things for the right reasons which can be really hard at times. I liked the ending, though it did seem a little bit unreal. The main actor did a great job. There were some parts that were a bit unworked up. The lady running into the guys truck and going in to do the right thing, yet she's a drug addict, and a lawyer. But I guess complex characters are ok. I'll take them over any high school storyline anyday. It was a great movie to see with my brother.
