For those who often wonder what a battle of wits between Ray Charles and King Leonidas might be like, Law Abiding Citizen is as close as you’re going to get. Actually, that premise might have been a better idea for a film than the bloody revenge thriller we get served up here. This violent psychological thriller, that has a bone to pick with the justice system, never really finds it way. It’s just a jumbled story pushed and pulled along by the guys who fared much better as a Spartan warrior and a musical genius.
Check out the review…

A new clip has been released from F.Gary Gray’s upcoming thriller, Law Abiding Citizen. It stars Gerard Butler and Oscar winner Jamie Foxx as two men on the opposite sides of the law, who’ve both been corrupted by the legal system. In the following clip, we get to see Foxx and Butler going at it, and as usual I can’t help but hear someone’s Scottish accent vaguely making an appearance during the scene.

Talk about coming out of left field. A trailer has been released via Entertainment Tonight for F. Gary Gray’s thriller, Law Abiding Citizen. It stars Gerard Butler as a mourning father and husband turned serial killer. I too was freaked out by that sentiment. After watching this thing I have to tell you the acting isn’t that great. It co-stars Jamie Foxx , Leslie Bibb, and a whole lot of excessive explosions.
Check out the trailer after the jump…

Even though this looks like it could work as a poster for Gamer, Gerard Butler’s angry mug is promoting a different movie. It’s for Law Abiding Citizen, a film that sounds like a campy action flick from the eighties. It’s directed by F. Gary Gray (The Italian Job), and co-stars Oscar winner Jamie Foxx. The film centers on a man who turns into a vigilante when his families killers are set free after they cop a plea bargain. The film hits theaters on October 16th (as do so many other things)!
Check out the full poster below.

Last week as ShoWest I had the privilege of being able to screen The Soloist, I still however do not have the ability to review it. I will say that my first response to the film was that Robert Downey Jr., Jamie Foxx, and Catherine Keener do a fantastic job in the film. All three of them have such dynamic and rich characters that could only be fully realized by three sophisticated and experienced actors.
It also helps that the have Joe Wright, a director known for creating painfully beautiful films about meaningful topics that pull at your heartstrings.
Check out videos from the film and featurettes and photos with the director, cast, crew, and the two people the story was based on, Steve Lopez and Nathaniel Ayers below…
