Never mind what I have been through, just look at what I have become

Again, it's another movie about politics and the justice system in the States. Americans always put so much emphasis on the value of family. So, when Clyde lost his wife and sweet daughter (technically, he was watching his wife being raped and his little princess being taken to hell), the revenge already started at that point without him knowing it.

A typical engineer trusted the law to make sure that the justice was served. Unsurprisingly, Nike made a deal with Darby's lawyer to let the real killer walk away just like what many real-life lawyers would do.

What happens next is that Clyde took 10 years using his born technical gift to map out a revenge plan.

The most exciting part took place when Clyde was facing the judge he faced 10 years ago, Clyde made the judge look really damn bad by using his studying and the understanding of the law during the decade. The judge is actually a representation of the entire system .

The ending once again tells us a simple thing: life is all about making choices. None of these would have happened, if people made the right choice. You guys should go check it out. You not only see an outstanding film, but also learn lots of things.

    If you want to criticize the system, then you should let the contradictory take full advantage of the loopholes in the system and open such a fierce plug-in.

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.
