Another ultra-liberal after the Joker, "Law Abiding Citizen"

At first I thought it was played by Owen, it looks a bit like... but it is indeed Owen's style in "The Killing".

The protagonist initially follows the order under the legal system, believing that the law will protect his life and punish the spoilers.

However, the man who ruined his life, because of the problems of the judicial system, plus the bribery of judges, escaped the harsh punishment of the law. The belief in the law disappears, of course, because the belief does not work.

There is no public relief, but private relief. People who once had problems, kill them all, like Domino's.

What else could it be? As the reasons for public interest become more and more persuasive, and the power of the administrative judicial system becomes more and more inflated, power and corruption, how does he know whether other judges will be bribed? How did he know if inspectors would make deals with prisoners for personal grades? The rotten smell has drifted away.

Then, like a clown, he took the initiative to be arrested. When he was also locked inside, he used several brutalities to hold the entire city's breath. Must be armed - he doesn't trust them, so he kills with no guilt. And the Joker said, "Look at their code of ethics, their laws: it's just a bad joke. When there's danger, they

'll show what they are. They 'll be at peace when there's peace." He said it was a war, and it was true , the same as the Joker's. "The gangsters have a plan, the police have a plan, and even Gordon has it. You know, they are all conspirators. Conspirators always have their own "little world" in their hands. I'm not one Conspirators, I made those conspirators realize how pathetic and ridiculous their efforts to control everything are." He made the stubborn pay the price. "Not for revenge." And we, too, seem to have long jumped out of the shadow of the planned economy.

Of course, just as the Joker didn't blow up the two ships in the end, he didn't kill the mayor.

    High IQ crime movies, I love watching such a powerful male protagonist

    When I first read it, I really wanted to give it four stars. Later, when I thought about the clues, the clues were boring, and the hardship was still there, and == Butler, you actually got fat!
