I was looking forward to this one, expecting great action, but this turned out to be some seriously disturbed stuff... It's not that the movie wasn't good - it was - but it was just a bit too much horror film and torture for my taste. Gerard Butler is great of course, one of the reasons I wanted to see it in the first place. And the story is clever! But they seemed to be more interested in grossing people out than using the clever story to its full potential...Basically, it's about the family man Clyde Shelton (Butler) watching his wife and daughter being raped and brutally murdered by some asshole criminals, and then the worst one of them gets only 3 years for being cooperative. Left completely alone, Shelton plots vengance on both the lawyers who made the deal and the whole corrupt justice system. And apparently, they did not know who they were fucking with...
