Advantages: Good deaths

Disadvantages: bit too long

Kind of like a Death Wish for the noughties (the inspiration for which came from the same novel). Bacon plays a mild mannered office worker whose family are killed one by one by a vicious street gang. Bacon decides to avenge their deaths by taking on the entire gang himself.
I quite liked Bacon in this film, he really showed the two sides of his character, the one who would do nothing to protect his family, as well as the loving family man.
The gang were good as well, as was John Goodman as the father of the gang leader who really couldn't care about what happened to his son at all.
Brutal in many respects, if a little far fetched. I really couldn't get Death Wish out of my head whilst watching it however and wished it was Charles Bronson killing all the gangland scum. Good, but not great.

Summary: good actioner- revenge movie.
