A mixture of today's reality and yesteryears injustices... the movie was unforgiving to the meek and mild but gave those who could stomach a good murder mystery (how did he do this from the inside of a prison) something to watch and keep guessing. Clive is at the top of his game in this one. The killings went too far for the protaganist to come out of this one unscathed.

Gerard Butler never fails to satisfy your cravings for action. He did a great job in playing a role as the victim and the villain at the same time. Although I'm very disappointed with conclusion of the plot, the action still had me at the edge of my seat.

The concept is good, but the ending ruined everything, I don't understand why this ending was picked, because it's not in line with the story and it's like the whole story was for nothing. Nobody learned anything from Clyde at the end. Quite disappointing.

This is a well thought out movie. It grabs you from the very beginning and doesn't let go of you until a few minutes before the end and if you haven't got good control you will be grabbing the person beside you. Action packed movie full of surprises, and doesn't give you a chance to catch your breath. A well paced movie where you can keep track of the story. Both leads, Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler acted their roles well – Gerard with just a hint of his Scottish accent – lovely to hear it just coming through softly. And how wonderful to see Colm Meaney who played really well working along with Jamie – great team. Not too bad on the profanity side but could have done with less graphic scenes. Good cinematography. Loved the zooming in on the prominent buildings. If you have the stomach for the gory stuff don't miss this movie. It is one you will not forget. Trust me!!

I never wanted to see this movie originally, but my movie was sold out so I had to watch it, and I was soo happy that mine was sold out, this movie had me hooked on it the entire time, right from the beginning I knew this movie will be good, and I like the actors, Jamie Foxx and Gerard is soo good (from the ugly truth) so goo watch it if you like a thriller/suspense/action.

Not a bad movie, not a big fan of either actors, but they did alright... Gibson and Washington would have been a better fit... Ending was a little disappointing.

The movie was interesting and the acting was great but, in the end I didn't think that Nick got the message that Clyde was trying to send.

Good plot... good acting... tight script... did not need to be seen on the big screen so should transfer to TV well. Good action drama with moral issues.

The movie was really well done!!! I believed in the characters from the beginning to th end, especially in the main one. He brought up the real family emotions and attachement in a way which couldn't make me hate him, even in the end. Absolutely great!

Two of the biggest egos in Hollywood - I don't know which one of them are more in love with themselves. I realise probably all movie stars are inherently vain, but these guys just ooze their self obsessed sleaze out of their pores. Ahhh, maybe if those two narcisistic pricks were not in the movie it may have been better.

As a law student, I found it to be an interesting insight on the justice system (plea bargainning being a common reality in Canada as well) - but as an earlier comment pointed out, one must remain critical. It is, after all, but fiction. Otherwise, good performance by both Butler and Foxx. Disappointing ending, but still definitely worth seeing!

Ok. Let's get it out there. Gerard Butler is hot. Aside from that, the story was rather entertaining! Although slightly unrealistic, it was an action movie I really enjoyed!

Butler is excellent but not stellar as the plot, exciting at times, but contrived and thrown together hastily at the end is disappointing. The movie starts out with great hopes but peters out at the end, unfortunately. Washington is okay, but not always believable. An "okay" movie for sure, but full of blood, guts and gore and a few surprises.

It was a really good action movie. The history was fascinating and stirring! If you like explosion and thriller, it's your movie! The cinegorth will be tied to the screen. Law abiding citizen is one of the best movie of the years. The actors Gerald Butler hold is character with brillance. Jamie Fox was exceptional in Nick Rice.

Great plot, superb acting by Gerard Butler, a bit of a stretch on the believability scale, a scathing portrayal of our incredibly flawed legal system... but what keeps it from being a truly great movie is the horribly contrived and rushed ending.

Very explicit, graphic violence. Waited for gore to be over. It never did. Walked out half way through. This extreme is not necessary to make a good movie.

Extremely brutal but extremely good plot. I jumped a few times and had to turn my head over twice but I think it was needed to really show the true feelings of the actors. Gerard Butler is a very good villain! Not for kids under 18.
