About this movie

A psychopathic mastermind (Gerard Butler of GAMER, 300) captured for the murder of his wife's killers threatens to unleash a gruesome killing spree across the city of Philadelphia unless he is released. The prosecuting attorney (Jamie Foxx of THE SOLOIST, THE KINGDOM) refuses and suddenly innocent people start dying in horrifying ways - just as the prisoner warned. The city falls into chaos, with everyone calling for the attorney's head. Desperate, he comes to the realization that his decisions might be what created this horrifying vigilante, and he is the only one who can stop him.

Sucks the hero dies at the end and the criminal leaves free. Whatever though, at least the hero got some justice in before he got taken out.

A murderer is a murderer, if he can't deal with something so traumatic as losing his wife and daughter he's a psycho. But what do I know lol, I never had a wife and family so it's hard to understand a situation like that. Anyway this film was fantastic, the second film I have ever seen Jamie Foxx in and it's without a doubt the best one yet. I think he's more cut out to be an actor rather than a musician.
