Johnny's sister is brutally attacked and murdered by a sadistic serial killer. At the trial, he is sentenced to be electrocuted, but a bleeding heart liberal has the sentence commuted to a mental facility. Here, he will interact with other model prisoners and give talks at schools while he is being treated. The only problem is that Johnny, being a ex-special forces trainer, is coming to the prison to seek his own justice and that does not include rehabilitation. (imdb)

Coheed

Rated 25 Jul 2012

A 'bad' film but it is compelling in its dubious and contradictory message - it's a traditional 'vengeance' film where only capital punishment, by law or vigilantism, is suitable for criminals, but in an attempt to either make it a serious drama, or a hesitance to go fully into its frontier attitude, it turns into an unintentional dissection of the problems with both sides of the argument while trying to bolt a martial arts actor into a non-action drama. The results are fascinating.
