Law Abiding Citizen
Disappointing - Alan001
This could have been a great movie, unfortunately it lost its will about half way through and the ending is truely appaling.
Infact the ending is so bad I am sorry I watched it.

Letdown by script - kee

Enjoyable, but done before. - Slugs
I'll have to disagree with the main reviewer on his thoughts on Law Abiding Citizen. I really don't see how it could even be remotely considered a Saw sequel. It's not a gorefest, or a murderous... MORE

Funny at points - Culabula
The main problem there was that it wasn't really supposed to be. This is a movie that thought it was cleverer than it actually was when it was actually quite ludicrous. I thought it felt like one of... MORE
