...raped and murdered, would you favor an irrevocable death penalty for the killer?" - in Michael Dukakis' measured tone, putting principle above vengeance. But that heroic restraint wouldn't make for a good movie. Then again, neither does the drearily sadistic Law Abiding Citizen. (See pictures from Nigeria's budding film industry...
...family would feel about the crimes he has committed. “My wife and daughter can’t feel anything,” Butler replies without missing a beat. “They’re dead.” Believe it or not, this is the film at its most profound. “Law Abiding Citizen” aspires to be a smart thriller akin to director F. Gary Gray’s last hit, “The Italian Job,” but it ends up an unintentional comedy through its ludicrous premise...
Intriguing mystery lies at the foundation of the film’s story, but the way it actually plays out is unimaginative and amateurish.

...Ultraman King, a whopping 300,000 years old, stands 190 ft. (58 m) tall and is able to fly at a top speed of Mach 20. A spokeswoman for the film's producers, Tsuburaya Productions, has said that Koizumi, as a former national leader, is the only person who has the presence to deliver such a pivotal address. With a mandate like that and the encouragement of his son, Koizumi completed his studio time in mid-September. The film will be released by Warner Bros. Japan in Japan on Dec. 12. The production studio declined to comment on whether Koizumi...
