When Clyde Shelton’s (Gerard Butler) soft-focus idyll is shattered by family-murdering rapists, his smug lawyer Nick Rice (Jamie Foxx) cuts a deal to let one of the perps go free. Law Abiding Citizen attempts to address this pertinent social issue for, ooh, the opening credits sequence, before deciding it can’t be bothered and would much rather pig out on bits nicked from the likes of Cape Fear, The Silence Of The Lambs and Se7en, before sicking them all up into a pulpy mess.Īt least it wastes no time setting out its stall. So who’s worse? Crazy vigilantes after pipe-hitting justice the system won’t provide, or the Teflon-coated shysters who profit from everyone else’s pain?
