Law Abiding Citizen

Critically un-acclaimed and perhaps even more gory than Zombieland, this movie isn’t for everyone. But, if you are looking for a twist on an action flick with anarchist roots—targeting the American justice system—this film may be for you. No, it’s not the smartest anarchist writing, but it’s there and the violence drives the point again and again…and again. And in case you looked down during the film, it did it then too. The film finishes with a bit of a patriotic ending, which was, for me, its main shortcoming.
