I know the movie has been out for awhile, but today Debi and I went to see Law Abiding Citizen. It was totally not what I expected it to be. I guess I should have paid closer attention to the ratings. It was gory. Normally I can handle movies as this one, but some of the scenes really bothered me. I think they really didn't have to go into such depth on some of them and leave a little to the imagination. I can relate it to watching Seven, the Ghost and the Darkness, or Silence of the Lambs. Mainly because it could really happen. And you just didn't know how to stop what was going on.
It was really on the edge of your seat. You kind of knew that something was going to happen, but you really didn't know what. And the scariest part was that you think that there is an accomplice out there, so even if they sentenced Gerard Butler's character to death, they made you believe that there was another person out there who would continue what he started.
All the time you're thinking, "you know, someone could go this bonkers and actually do some of this stuff."
Anyway, aside from the blood and guts, I really did enjoy going to see this film. Mainly because it made you think. And I really didn't expect the ending. Although there were many things pointing to what the outcome would be during the movie, I really didn't expect it to end the way it did.
I love watching Gerard Butler in his movies, he is a terrific actor, and is very believable. He can be really fun loving and nice, but man, don't make him mad! LOL
