Clyde Shelton's family is brutally murdered. The ones responsible are caught. However, because of improper procedure, the D.A., Nick Rice only has circumstantial evidence. So he decides to get one of them to testify against the other. When Shelton learns of this, he is not happy. Ten years later, the one who was convicted is being executed but something goes wrong; his execution goes awry and he suffers. They learn that someone tampered with the machine. And the other one is found dead, killed in a gruesome manner. Rice suspects Shelton, so he has him picked up. At first, Shelton agrees to a plea agreement with Rice but changes his mind. It appears that Shelton is not done, it appears he blames the whole system and is declaring war on it going after everyone involved with his family's case. So Rice has to stop him but Shelton is way ahead of him.

Good guy Clyde was just there to teach us a lesson. I was sad when he died looking at his daughter's bracelet. This is basically a story about a DA becoming good with help and sacrifice of a man who had nothing left to lose. What a good movie! Similar to The Unthinkable. - @Monday, February 8, 2016 11:27 AM

Good movie, yes. It would be one of the best movies I ever watched if Hollywood stoped beeing completelly racist on what concerns the actors involved... Is the white always the "bad" guy and the "blackie" the wized and justice hero??? Hollywood even tries to make people believe that in 2WW blackies flying P-51's killed German jets ME-212's!!!! Do these producers beside from "creating" senators and presidents in US want the convince the all world that the AFRICAN slave descendents are the Earth future??? - @Sunday, December 20, 2015 8:02 PM

LOL@Goldenleg7. Why you say that? Law Abiding Citizen was very good and Gerard Butler was evil LOL. I can see why he was pissed off at Jamie and the justice system because they did nothing to put away the killers who killed Gerard's family. So Gerard took care of the killers LOL. Regina Hall was Jamie's wife and she's cute. I love her. - @Wednesday, October 22, 2014 6:51 PM
