After a home invasion, Clyde Shelton (Gerard Butler) is told that one of the
criminals who killed his wife and daughter would get off due to his
cooperation with the district attorney's office and the other would be
put on death row. Shelton seeks revenge not just against the criminals
but the entire justice system; he is quickly captured, but Nick Rice
(Jamie Foxx), a corrupt D.A. who got one of the murderers off, quickly
realizes that prison isn't enough to keep Shelton from killing those
who kept the criminals from getting the sentence they deserved.
