Law Abiding Citizen (R,
Action, Drama) C+
When Clyde Shelton (Gerard Butler) family is murdered
by a couple of men that invade his house he hopes they will get a long harsh
prison sentence. Unfortunately the District Attorney (Jamie Foxx) decides
it’s better to get a guaranteed conviction even though the sentence
will be a lot milder. Displeased with this fact Clyde decides to get his
revenge on not only the criminals but on the justice system that he feels
failed him. When this movie starts out you feel some sympathy for Clyde
but as it progresses that sympathy fades away and it then turns out that
none of the characters in this film are very likable. The movie tries to
maintain interests by gradually building up Clyde as some super criminal
mastermind.
