Not a bad pizza movie, if a little grisly at times. Butler gives it his all, portraying a man turned into a monster, but Jamie Foxx looks like he was sleepwalking through the film. Ultimately, though, the film seems to lack anyone to empathise with. Who are the bad guys really? Is this just about revenge or is there a higher principal involved? And, if so, what?

Law Abiding Citizen
Another film through my subscription. Ten years after his wife and daughter are murdered in a home invasion, Clyde Shelton (Gerard Butler) returns to exact revenge on the killers and the corrupt and compromised judicial system that short-changed him.
