Plots(1)
Will Gerards (Nicolas Cage) life is turned upside-down when his wife, Laura (January Jones), is brutally attacked one night while leaving work. As Laura begins her recovery in the hospital, a concerned stranger approaches Will with an offer to save them the suffering of a drawn-out trial by promptly dispatching his wifes assailant. Though the help he offers is free of charge, the stranger makes it clear that he may call on Will to repay the favour sometime in the future. Will consents to the deal, unwittingly pulling himself into a dangerous underground vigilante operation and quickly discovers that his quest for justice could lead to frightening and deadly consequences.

Nonsense. As expected. Nicolas is like the Little Boletus and he is plowing through family depression and sacrifice to revenge, which is pretty strangely depicted, though. Every now and then I like his movies, but I don’t really need to see this one in particular again.

The central idea of the film intrigued me so much that I was completely immersed in the plot, waiting anxiously to see if Nicolas Cage would somehow miraculously get out of the shit he was in. Surprisingly, he actually succeeds and almost everything turns out well. (70%)
