Law Abiding Citizen smells corrupt to me

Rating: 6/10 (8 June 2011)

This is an awful film. I watched this film at the cinema (UK), and so I can't really remember much of it now, but what I do remember is thinking that the opening scenes were really promising as Gerard Butler must witness his family being murdered. From then on in I thought this film was going to be great after such a strong start and with endless possibilities/plot routes to go don I didn't think the film could fail. Boy was I wrong. For some reason it goes down the route of Mr Butler's character offing those who offed his family. However, there are certain scenes in film that come across as sheer lunacy in that they are so unrealistic and far fetched it's hard to imagine anyone come up with the idea. Plus, I seem to remember the film becoming really confusing by the end, either that or it was so damn stupid that it seemed to confuse me. Anyway, my advice would be to steer clear of this one because...it's cr*p.
