Saw that on history channel, guess they tried to get him before but his family was with him, so the telephone was the way.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

+1 for Law Abiding Citizen. We watched it the other night and really enjoyed it.

In 1986 there was a made for T.V. movie called 'The Sword of Gideon' about the Mossad going after the folks responsible for Munich. It was a pretty good flick.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

Watched it Friday night.....just awsome one of the betterfilms I've seen in a awhile....cell phone scene rocked!!!...on 7.1 surround it sounded like a silenced 300 WM when it went off...Me and the Miss both jumped.....LOL!!!!

Gerard Butler is fast becoming one of my favorite actors these days I like alot of his roles!!!
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

Watched last night....WOW! I don't normally get 'jumpy' with movies, but I almost dropped my sleeping baby with the phone scene.

i did the same thing, but overall it was a bad ass movie.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

I saw it in the theater and the phone sence actaully had people jumping up from their seats! It is a great movie!
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

Great movie, I'm going to watch it again.

I liked the comment about I dont make deals with murderers, you taught me that.

Re: Law abiding citizen

Re: Law abiding citizen

Same here.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

I rose off the chair some with the cell phone scene. That took me completely off guard. I liked this movie. It had my attention.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

BAD ASS MOVIE!! I was actually kinda tired when I turned it on and by the end I couldn't go to sleep at all. Cell phone scene made me jump as well and I don't ever jump. Loved it
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

Saw it yesterday. Good movie. Initially my hero, then went a little overboard

Re: Law abiding citizen

While the cell phone scene was awsome, I really liked the one when he kills his cell mate. That scene was horrific and emediately put me on an "Eminence Front by The Who" kick. That was the song playing on his ipod during that scene.

It was however completely unreasonable if you think about it, that, the jail security would allow that T-bone in there with the steak.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

Finally saw it. Liked the entire movie, but thought the ending was way too convenient and wholly unsatisfying. Ah well, it was entertaining.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

I loved every minute of it until the end, it sucked. I would have at least let him get away and leave a note saying change or I will finish it.

wisp
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

I watched it again the other night and put it on 1/16th speed for the cell phone.

Hard to tell if it's a dummy or a blood bag and good stuntman..

In My work...I've wished for that ability sooo many times!
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

I watched it, then watched it again the next day with my wife. It was spectacular right up until the last part. I don't think he should have gotten away per se, but going out in more of a blaze of glory (like killing every inmate in the prison along with himself) would have been better.

Imagine if they would have disarmed the bomb, only to find out that it was a fake, and when he dialed every prison in the area went up simultaneously. And he left a message saying it was his final gift or something.

They just could have done better with the ending.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

Good idea, SPDSNYPR. I think that would have made an awesome ending to an otherwise great movie.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

Saw it last night. Entertaining, but the ending was not what I expected. To me, they did a good job all the way till the finish and then acted like they were in a hurry to get done.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

I loved the movie too right up to the end. Think him getting away/ let escape would have been better. Good one tho, wish I had one of those cell phones..... Ringgggg, bang
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

Everyone who I've talked to (and I agree) has said they liked/loved the movie with the exception of the ending. Oh well, entertaining flick to say the least.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

+1 on the ending. I watched it last night and while I loved the movie, the ending was a let down. I was sort of hoping he'd get away with it.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

I'm tryin' to remember it... seriously. All's I can remember is I've seen it. Gonna havta IMDB it to figure out why I din't think enough of it to remember it.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

I got sued for not selling a piece of property to a lawyer who wanted to strip the timber. Going into court my lawyer tells me "now remember, right has nothing to do with it." That made the movie all the more entertaining. Justice even if it was just a movie.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

As the previous posts stated, ending a bit shallow. They came up short with that one. The entire movie was entirely epic up to the end. It was almost like they decided to just wing the last 5-10mins. Mabey the screen writer had to take a potty break towards the end of writing and lost his train of thought on the throne.

Re: Law abiding citizen

It was a great movie. I love the whole premise and every scene was not wasted. The only part that sucks is the ending cuz you know he would not make that stupid mistake with the janitor's cart. Enjoyed every second of it.
 
Re: Law abiding citizen

this was hands down the most intense movie ive seen in years! i was ass puckered the whole time and never once guessed right as to what he was going to do next!!!
