Excellent film. Kevin bacon is a fab actor in this film and I highly recommend watching this. He's a dad out for revenge of the men who killed his son in an Initiation test. A must watch.

FIRST THING IS FIRST.. In my opinion when writing a dvd review, the reviewer should not spend too much time in giving the story line away,as in my opinion this gives the veiwer a insight into what to expect and may spoil the viewing experience. As lots of THRILLER / HORROR / SUSPENCE movies these days tend to go down the route of REMAKES from the mid 1970,s and early - mid 1980,s (Texas chain saw massacre,The hills have eyes and the such like).All of which in my opinion are far more gruesome in thier later versions than the original,mainly due to the use of far superior technology,but all hold the same story line as the original.PLEASE READ ON DEATH SENTENCE 2007...SAW 2005 Both of these films were directed by JAMES WAN...To all those original **SAW** fans out there,this was the man that directed the ""ORIGINAL SAW"".A superb film with very dark and gruesome story line, but also telling minimaly the family life of the victims, had a rather abrupt end that "if you thnk back it still does your head in".Even after watching SAW 2 3 & 4.DEATH SENTENCE IS DEATH SENTENCE... A family man (Kevin Bacon) ,that is very happily married with a Beutifull wife (Kelly Preston) 2 boys aged 18 and 14. PLOT... In a gangland inisitiation at a petrol station,1 family member gets murdered. Who seaks revenge ? Against who? A gang leader ? or his father ? (John Alderman) SUMMARY... DIRECTED BY JAMES WAN (DIRECTER OF THE ORIGINAL SAW) This movie is basicly a re- run of the DEATH WISH (vigilante movie made in 1973)) but has a little SAW type ending.Far more gruesome in detail than DEATH WISH,Bacon is great playing his character ,the family man and JOHN ALDERMAN acts and plays a part that you would not believe.The ending produces,under the circumstances a show down of shear brutality and near forgiveness. DEATH WISH... BUT FAR SUPERIOR TOP NOTCH STUFF..starts family..ends not so..NOT ONE FOR THE KIDS THAT HAVE NOT LEFT SCHOOLRead full review
A middle-class, white-collar Dad, devoted to his wife and growing sons, becomes a killing machine when one of his lads is murdered for kicks by a gang of thugs. Gripping, violent thriller stars Kavin Bacon as the vigilante father. It includes a really exciting chase (on foot) which is technically brilliant as well as edge-of-the-seat entertainment.
