Another movie from the makers of Saw which is good as I do like their films quite a bit. This is another movie about justice. The movie follows a married couple who lose their son to a kidnapper. Once the police finally apprehend the kidnapper, it is too late and the son is found dead.
Unhappy with the verdict of only 25 to life, the mother of the deceased child formulates a plan with her husband to capture the man and torture him to make them feel better. This reminds me in part of Law Abiding Citizen only with more gore (much much more gore).
After highjacking the prison transport vehicle, the couple chains the criminal in the basement and spend days torturing him even though he claims he does not know who they are or why they are doing this to him.
The police are on the hunt to find the "escaped" fugitive and finally apprehend him in the woods. At this point the movie lets you realize that the couple actually nabbed the wrong fugitive as there was another man in the transport with him. So in the end the one they tortured escapes and commits suicide in the shed outside of the house.
This was a turn that I was just like OH NO about because they went through all of that trouble for justice and then end up killing an inocent man. What a twist of luck that ended up being!
I gave this movie a four. Good movie!
