for the film, specially registered account to talk about their views, their views and hope to find the same friends.

Many people think that Nick is the most to be killed. Individuals can't agree.

The protagonist’s desire for revenge was released after dismembering the main criminal. All subsequent actions stemmed from the anger and hatred of the old and full of loopholes in the judicial system and in order to achieve more far-reaching goals...

He did not hesitate to spend 10 years planning revenge while planning. The plan, while studying and studying the judicial system, allows him to talk with Nick in the confession room without leaving any loopholes, and even become his own defense lawyer. He had already understood that Nick was not on the side of evil as he saw. But he knew that in the face of the dilapidated judicial system, although Nick knew the facts and truth in his heart, he did not dare to take risks. In the end, he chose to compromise between the closing rate and justice.

The protagonist also knows that he cannot subvert the entire system on his own, so he chooses to personally shape a person who can defend justice. Nick used to be not, but he knew that Nick wanted to do so. This is why he wanted to kill the judge, why he wanted to kill the chief prosecutor under the mayor. In this way, Nick can logically rise to a higher level in politics and achieve a certain dominant position in the judiciary. He made deals with Nick again and again, just to make Nick realize that trading with criminals would only make tragedies happen again and again.

Killing innocent people is not what the protagonist wants. But angry and desperate, he extremely believed that a series of blood lessons must be used to lead the prosecutor named Nick on the path of real justice. In the film, if I remember correctly, the protagonist showed a deep sense of guilt after killing at least twice.

As mentioned above, if the protagonist only wants simple revenge, he does not need such a long time to plan. With his ability, he does not even need to enter prison, so that the police can wait for him to be tried one by one without evidence. Those whom he considers guilty. But why did he choose to implement such a huge plan centered on Nick? If he sees Nick as the criminal's accomplice, why not put Nick in the first few steps of the plan and kill him?

Yes, the protagonist is waiting for Nick's last sentence, "I won't trade with the murderer again."

So that when he finally saw the bomb he made, he was not too surprised, not too afraid, but only confession and relief. He has long reported his determination to die, and only hopes that there can be an upright prosecutor to stand up and defend justice.

The ending is perfect. After the death of the protagonist’s wife and children, he is left with despair and hatred in the world, but with his own death, the people’s hope for justice is obtained...

Good actor, good script, good director ...Very good movie!

Think deeply, don’t just be blinded by revenge to understand.
Also, personally guess that the last email was sent by him himself.

Law Abiding Citizen quotes

  • Detective Dunnigan: [to Nick over the phone] Listen, that contraption that killed Cantrell was a weaponized bomb-disposal robot. Can you believe that? Damn thing had video, night vision, you name it. It's like military AP1, for Christ's sake. That's anti-tank rounds, Nick. I think he's saving you for last. Nick, you've got to get in front of this guy if you want to stay alive.

  • Mayor: [During a city-hall meeting with federal, city, and state government officials] I have one simple question: why is Clyde Shelton still in my city? I refuse to believe that one man is smarter than Homeland Security, the FBI, the Sheriff's department or the entire Philadelphia Police department. I don't care how we do it or what kind of obscure legal justification we have to invoke. I don't care what laws we have to bend, I am sure there is a provision of the Homeland Security Act we can activate.
