Gerard Butler in LAW ABIDING CITIZEN Photos

Written by Kurt Wimmer and directed by F. Gary Gray, Law Abiding Citizen stars Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx as two men on the opposite sides of law. It’s just unclear who’s actually on the right side: the district attorney (Foxx) who agreed on a plea bargain that set murderers loose, or the man (Butler) who wants to take revenge against the D.A. for allowing his family’s killers to roam free.
Also in the cast: Colm Meaney, Bruce McGill, Leslie Ibb, Michael Irby.
Law Abiding Citizen opened in the US this past Friday.
