The ORB's take: If you wanted "Taken" to go to the next level, this is your type of film.

Movie Review:
If you liked the movie "Taken" then seeing this movie is a must see and you won't be disappointed. This movie takes "Taken" to the next level. "Gerard Butler" does a great job in this film, and is probably his best movie since "300". This movie is all about revenge, and hatred for the judicial system that allows murders to walk free. This flick doesn't have an elaborate plot, but does provide a few twists that will make you wonder why you didn't figure it out during the movie. Simple plot: Husband survives a robbery that his wife and child do not, and the murder testifies and only gets a minimum sentence - prosecuting attorney cares more about winning - victim turns out to be more than a simple law abiding citizen. This movie is well worth your money to see in the theater and isdefinitely a first-week-release rental.

What to Watch For: The judge's payment, Twists, Revenge
