Last Friday I went and saw “Law Abiding Citizen” with my dad. The movie stars Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx and is the story of a man who is seeking vengeance for the murder of his family and the lawyer trying to stop him.
The movie is great in many aspects. One of the first things I loved was that it took next to no time to get right into the meat of the story. (I personally do not enjoy when a movie spends twenty minutes establishing a happy family life just to see it brutally taken away, especially since (as LAC showed) that same establishing can be done in about sixty seconds. From there the film is a whirlwind of great story telling and graphic violence. Gerard Butler completely delivers an outstanding performance that is surprisingly matched by Jamie Foxx. While this is definitely NOT a movie for children, I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a good action-thriller.
