High school student Brendan Frye prefers to stay an outsider, until the day that his ex-girlfriend, Emily, reaches out to him unexpectedly and then vanishes. Brendan's feelings for her still run deep and he becomes consumed with finding his troubled inamorata. To find her, Brendan enlists the aid of his only true peer, The Brain, while keeping the assistant vice principal only occasionally informed of what quickly becomes a dangerous investigation. Brendan's single-minded unearthing of students' secrets thrusts him headlong into the colliding social orbits of rich-girl sophisticate Laura, intimidating Tugger, substance-abusing Dode, seductive Kara, jock Brad, and - most ominously - non-student The Pin. It is only by gaining acceptance into The Pin's closely guarded inner circle of crime and punishment that Brendan will be able to uncover hard truths about himself, Emily, and the suspects that he is getting closer to.

User Reviews: Brick (2006)

  • Overall:

    Weird--but I liked it.

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 12, 2006 | 1 out of 1 found this Brick (2006) review helpful

    Pros: Unusual approach; mystery

    Cons: Sometimes over the top

    I didn't know what to expect--a murder mystery involving high school teenagers--but it was pretty creative. Being a pretty big mystery fan, I perceived some cool parallels between some of the hard-boiled mysteries I've read and seen and this ...movie. Brendan is our detective, hell-bent on solving the murder of his ex-girlfriend. Laura is the femme fatale, and the vice-principal serves as the "commissioner." This movie should be viewed as a sort of dark parody of the genre, as it's so over-the-top that it would be faulty to take it completely seriously. Read more Less
