Johnson competently creates a neo-noir film with Brick, but one that I could never really get invested into. In part it's the fast-talking dialogue and budget production (close length shots and choppy action) that put me off. Mostly, it's the self-aggrandising characters and complete lack of humour. We know Gordon-Levitt can act but his surly, grim demeanour edges the film into tedious territory. Nevertheless, Johnson's "whodunit" plot is decent, and he's improved his formula with Knives Out.

This film was made for people who hate Joseph Gordon-Levitt, as every interaction with another person ends with Levitt getting beat up. A neo-noir set in high school? Great idea, less than great execution.

From these awkwardly edited fist fights to TLJ’s throne room battle. You’re gonna do great things Rian. For now, maybe don’t cram the entirety of the main mystery clues into the last ten minutes. Mystery is enthralling because its inviting and lets us all be detectives, not because of the ostensible coolness of obfuscating what could be deemed too easy. Don’t assume we like your characters cuz they’re “mysterious”, and never write a mystery story like said characters.

Embarrassingly amateur super-witty scriptwriting, but it's good to establish early that even at his best, Rian mostly peddles dorky trash. JGL in glasses is actually the dorkiest look ever my god.

Enjoyable play on noir tropes is hobbled by its lack of a satisfying payoff - more in terms of its conceit than its story, though the narrative convolutions make the film harder work than it needs to be. Otherwise, this Bogart-ish mystery transplanted to a modern teen setting is consistently engaging and well performed (Gordon-Levitt is a terrific hero) with even some unexpectedly funny moments, but the overarching question is "why?"
