A diario los medios de información nos bombardean con casos escabrosos, delitos de sangre y censurables crímenes donde sólo hay unos perdedores: las víctimas, tanto las que estúpidamente encuentran su final a manos de indeseables, como los familiares de las mismas que deben vivir con la pérdida del ser amado y con una única obsesión: la búsqueda de justicia, una justicia en la mayoría de las veces imperfecta que no comporta el justo castigo que debería merecer el o los autores del terrible delito que have committed.
How many times, seeing such news, we have not thought about or wanted most of the penalties for that or those who have killed families, children, the elderly ... and mock up invoking a law rights that seem to constantly deprive their victims 
? How many of those families have not longed to get their hands on the murderer of his son, wife or brother to practice justice itself that the law ban? Well, all this is the film in question: "A model citizen."
? How many of those families have not longed to get their hands on the murderer of his son, wife or brother to practice justice itself that the law ban? Well, all this is the film in question: "A model citizen." "A model citizen" has a priori fierce influence: the famous action films series "B" of the eighties popularized especially actors like Charles Bronson or Chuck Norris, urban vigilante, in the wake of a terrible crime against his family that is the deserved punishment part of the existing legislation, decide to take justice into their own hands, inspired by this brood of "vigilantes" was born precisely known Marvel character "The Punisher", which, after the murder of his family in the crossfire between gangs, chooses to channel his personal crusade against the criminals.
This time, however, Clyde Shelton (played by Gerard Butler) not only conforms to see those who have attacked her family dead, also claims that legal officials in charge of their case, which considered not to have put enough effort into their work, are also sanctioned (and how!). Thus, the film not only focuses on the hackneyed and the protagonist awaited revenge against the murderers of their own, but it extends to the legislative estates were responsible (in their opinion, so incompetent) to judge those . So much for some as for others preparing the most expeditious methods, it is at this point that Butler's character reaches an interesting evolution over the footage, since the initial empathy transmitted to the viewer in their just demand goes to the logic of this repulsion by its erroneous interpretation of justice. It is in this way you will find a correct opposition Jamie Foxx in the skin of the prosecutor Nick Rice, the very antithesis of Shelton, which will maintain a tough duel with this position when Rice is seen in the obligation to stop the evil actions Shelton, held in the prison, show that this is not limited to fully achieve their intentions.
"A model citizen" maintains an excellent pace throughout it. The nearly two hours that passed in a flash, the tension and suspense film that needs a known distribution of these features with ease F. Gary Gray, the director. The film, however, also has elements of hard to believe that facilitate the character of Butler's achievement of its objectives, but these are completely obscured after the interpretation interesting battle between Butler and Foxx. Both wield strong characters extremely rigid in opposing positions, sometimes both valid, but ultimately must necessarily prevail over one another for the sake of a system, although it has many defects, we are opposed to irrationality and the barbarism of the past (and this is extended to all systems court of any country considered civilized and human rights defender, although sometimes unavoidable desire a return of those bygone stages, in the United States is still in effect precisely the death penalty in many states ... "Fair, unfair? A debate always open to all opinions). This is the final message transmitted by the film and the only one to defend himself, despite everything.
"A model citizen" is therefore a very entertaining film that especially encourages reflection and positioning of the viewer in one of two positions that wield the main characters ... Let everyone choose where you would stand.
