Kevin Bacon’s son is killed by a gang and, disappointed in the legal system, Bacon decides to take matters in his own hands, and the situation quickly escalates out of control. There is no glorification of the violence and no martial arts, the fights are crude and brutal. The film is a little heavy on emotion, but the action and surprises compensate for that. It’s clever, nasty and captures the sense of desperation Bacon feels, even if it does become a little too much like Taxi Driver towards the end.
