Rating: Null/10 (12 April 2010)

Law Abiding Citizen is directed by F. Gary Gray starring Jamie Fox, Gerard Butler, and Colm Meaney. Clyde Shelton (Gerard Butler) which is a military specialist who tries to corrupt the judicial system by murdering judges, lawyers, and police to prove his point of how he thinks the judicial system should be changed. Clyde Shelton who plays Gerard is a family man that witnesses the murder of his wife and child. As he goes to trial with the man who kills his family the judge lets him off with a light sentence.
Gerard's character is proving his point to society on how he perceives justice should be ran. Shelton is not out for revenge!!!! He also brings the importance of family to Rice and how it should not be taken for granted. In the last scene where Shelton was in his cell holding the bracelet his daughter made with flames surrounding him showed the passion he had for his family. He has no psychological problems at all he knows exactly what he is doing and why he is doing it he had ten years after the trial to plan every last detail. His character plays the protagonist in this film more than the antagonist. He is right about the law and how it is corrupt and an unjust system.
