Great movie over all!

Rating: 9/10 (7 August 2011)

~ Very unique, clever story plots that kept me tightly on my seat waiting to see what's going to happen next. A man who is courageous and intelligent in details sought justice for the murder of his family after the justice system has failed him. The ending is just as sad as the very unfortunate murder event from the start, even though the "moral of the story" is to advise or warn that one cannot take laws into one's own hand... Loved the movie; wished it could have had a better ending (and a superior acting co-star, say Denzel Washington or even Cuba Gooding Jr.)... It is a great movie worth watching; I've watched it twice and still love it – just be prepared that the ending may not meet your expectation. I wanted to rate it an 8 for the storyline, but I am rating it a 9 because of Gerard Butler's outstanding performance!
