Law & order porn posing as a thriller

Rating: 3/10 (4 October 2016)

Very disappointing flick, though it might please those who like to see unredeeming violence and a big strut for Jamie Foxx, whose character is as painful to watch as the apparent bad guy (Gerard Butler) who may actually be a misguided good guy, or maybe not, that's never clear. But then, neither is the movie and its story, which may be pro-law and order, or maybe not. Fact is, the theme of the movie is muddled, as are the characters, and in the end all I felt was a strong repugnance that the movie got made and that I watched it... and felt completely ripped off. If you are willing to see this much hatred and anger and violence in a movie, they're ought to be a point. There isn't. In the end, this is a flick worth missing. Wish I had.
