Does "Taken" count?
How about "Harry Brown"............Micheal Caine as the ex Royal Marine...may not have the movie name right |

Man on Fire, he had more imagination, but Law Biding Citizen was slick on its own accord.

Man on Fire was OK, but Law Abiding Citizen sucked.
Offhand, I like Lethal Weapon 2, The Count of Monte Cristo and Taken. |

I never saw Law ABiding Citizen, but any film that involved taping a guys hands to a steering wheel and cutting his fingers off with plant shears or jamming a bomb up a guy's ass takes the cake in my mind.

Law Abiding Citizen if the ending could be unfucked.
If Tom Clancy's "Without Remorse" would ever come out & they don't fuck it up, too, it would be epic.
