  Review by DirkH ★★ 5

  While you are reading this review, a man will knock on your door giving you an envelope with a key in it. Tomorrow you will go to a train station and use this key to open the empty locker it belongs to at exactly 13.02, after which you will be bothered by six aggressive mimes and a small monkey. After this, you will go home, call your mother at 14.23 and cry about it. How do I know this? I planned this two years ago.

  If you believe this, you'll give this film a five star rating. If not, you'll watch a completely forgettable, though decently made, action film.

  Review by matt lynch ★★★½

  Absolutely hilarious, DEATH WISH meets ABOMINABLE DR. PHIBES, Bronson's reactionary fury replaced with Gerry Butler's ever-evident glee at playing psychos and Vincent Price's boobytrap elegance swapped out for gorgeous industrial Philly grunge. Delightful.

  Probably would have had more emotional impact, if you had seen the family more than 10 seconds.

  Review by josh lewis ★★★ 2

  gleefully depraved, like Death Wish updated for the torture porn era, my man gerry b chews his way to the earth's core with this biblically righteous, psycho supervillain routine. "this is von clausewitz shit."

  Review by Ninjaa 🇮🇳 ★★½

  I was excited throughout the movie but the end was very disappointing. The film started well and appeared promising in the first half but what a stupid way to end a great movie. A really good thriller then failed.

  Review by King is Ironicmajesty ★★★½

  The 26% rate Rotten Tomatoes gave Law Abiding Citizen can svck itself.

  This action thriller tells the story of a man out for revenge against the justice system. Director Gary Gray delivered sequence after sequence of revenge galore, with attention grabbing execution aiming for visual pleasure. For the most part, the plot isn't as sharp on the moral ground it touches - leaving audiences undecided who to root for (which is a good thing IMO, as this left the storytelling more thrilling and fast paced. Gerald Butler and Jamie Foxx did well too.

  Law Abiding Citizen isn't as commendable in portraying the system as corruptible as they were busier in streaming violence that almost mirrored the Saw franchise in sadism. But all in all, Law Abiding Citizen is a very intriguing tho far fetched pleaser.

  Review by Dawson Joyce ★★

  A Death Wish meets Se7en action crime/revenge thriller where you have no one to root for, Law Abiding Citizen, while well-acted and well-shot, is the ridiculous film that thinks it's more clever than it really is, trying to make a statement about the corruption of the justice system but failing to acknowledge that the person supposedly exposing it is equally in the wrong.

  Review by David ★★★★★ 2

  Law Abiding Citizen is directed by F. Gary Gray and was released in 2008. The movie has a great cast with Jamie Foxx, Gerard Butler, Colm Meaney, Viola Davis, Sarah Lowell, Christian Stolte and many more. 

  This film is all about a horrific incident that occurs at the beginning of the film and it is all about the after affect of that incident. The film does a brilliant job of showcasing the lasting damage this event had on our main character Clyde, playing absolutely exceptionally by Gerard Butler. He see’s all of his family slaughtered and his young daughter raped, in front of his eyes as he is tied up helpless on the floor. The father is left alive after…
