sick

Rating: 1/10 (8 February 2012)

One of the sickest films ever made. An unbelievable bloodbath, torture and mayhem are supposedly equated with "justice". But then this is a country that kills people with lethal injections and, quite frequently, innocent people represented by incompetent lawyers. So maybe no sicker than reality, USA style. Also, the ridiculous conceit, common in many violent US films that the "hero" is somehow unstoppable, invincible and possessed therefore of apparently supernatural powers. Is this supposed to be an indictment of a legal system? The alternative is maybe justice as understood by Al-Quaeda - decapitation, ripping bodies apart to "demonstrate" some supposed point about their own superior humanity.
