Law Abiding Citizen Featurette


Ok, a featurette for Law Abiding Citizen was posted today, which gives me the opportunity to speculate on the movie... Let me just start out by saying, I love the concept of this movie and I love the cast selection... That being said, I don't think this movie is going to get good reviews... There are a few indicators. First, this type of plot and genre don't usually get good reviews. Second, their hasn't been any reviews on the film yet, which means that they aren't too confident in the film getting good reviews... Third, he uses the line "it's going to be biblical". That just shows bad writing right there, in my opinion. From what I've seen, I am positive I am going to enjoy the film, but I am almost certain it will receive a 17% on Rotten Tomatoes' tomatoe meter... This is one of those films you have to go into expecting nothing special and just enjoy what you see... 
Official description of the film and the featurette are below...


Clyde Shelton (Gerard Butler) is an upstanding family man whose wife and daughter are brutally murdered during a home invasion. When the killers are caught, Nick Rice (Jamie Foxx), a hotshot young Philadelphia prosecutor, is assigned to the case. Over his objections, Nick is forced by his boss to offer one of the suspects a light sentence in exchange for testifying against his accomplice. Fast forward ten years. The man who got away with murder is found dead and Clyde Shelton coolly admits his guilt. Then he issues a warning to Nick: Either fix the flawed justice system that failed his family, or key players in the trial will die. Soon Shelton follows through on his threats, orchestrating from his jail cell a string of spectacularly diabolical assassinations that can be neither predicted nor prevented. Philadelphia is gripped with fear as Shelton’s high-profile targets are slain one after another and the authorities are powerless to halt his reign of terror. Only Nick can stop the killing, and to do so he must outwit this brilliant sociopath in a harrowing contest of wills in which even the smallest misstep means death. With his own family now in Shelton’s crosshairs, Nick finds himself in a desperate race against time facing a deadly adversary who seems always to be one step ahead.
