DVD "LAW ABIDING CITIZEN" Score B- 82%

For what this one is, which is at it core a revenge flick, I really liked it. Gerard Butler plays a husband and father who in a violent attack looses his family. The killer(s) are caught but the law system lets one free and the other one gets the death penalty. Butler goes rogue and takes down everyone involved with the case, the killers, the lawyers and more. He is a specialist former government killer who plans elaborate schemes to make sure you are dead if he wants you dead. In the end, SPOIILER ALERT!!! He loses which is unsatisfying; we want to see him take down all of the justice system. But in Hollywood ending style the vigilante is caught and stopped before he can complete his super plan. It’s a pure revenge flick modern Death-wish style updated for today. This has a smart script and its a good fun film with lots of killing but ultimately an unsatisfying completion.
