"Brick"
 

Has anyone seen this film, what did you think? Definately Dashiell Hammett inspired as the director acknowledges. I crave to see The Maltese Flacon again now. I was really surprised by this film. The suspense and tension of this mystery were really timed well. It was weird seeing a "Noir" film where the scenes were modern yet the script was throw back to older days.
I can't say I didn't have criticisms but I really liked it. Some of the little things they filmed and some of the shots made me really appreciate the art.

I loved Brick, it was a fantastic trip. It just goes to show what you can do with a good script, with even a low budget. I heard it was around $500,000 USD. and was shot in 15 days.

I thought it was good. There was another thread about it on here a while back...

opps I guess this was a redundant post then. I did a search for brick and didn't get any results. sorry about that

This was the thread if you are interested in reading what some others thought of it Brick

Well, since that thread's 4 pages back, I'll say it here:

I loved that movie. One of my favorites of all time. It's so different, and in such a cool style. I mean, the whole concept is awesome, as was the implementation.

And I still have to say, the fight in the parking lot was one of the best movie-fights I've ever seen.

So good.

As much as I liked it, I think it would have been better if it didn't have such self conscious, affected dialog. They could have accomplished the same thing and been a little more subtle about it.
