Question

I didn't get help so just re-posting.


I have to write a review of a film or play I've seen and I chose the movie "Law Abiding Citizen"

I need help (the theme isn't really a theme, its the plot but I can't really come up with a theme.) Could this be it?

A man seeks revenge on the justice system for not putting the men who murdered his family in prison.


"Law Abiding Citizen"

Directed by F.Gary Gray

Starring: Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler

Theme: A brilliant man orchestrates a series of high-profile murders that grip the city of Philadelphia - all from inside his jail cell. The prosecutor assigned to his case realizes he is the only one who can end the reign of terror.

Notice that a theme is NOT the main idea or plot of a story. It's the author's message to his readers.

So ... what do YOU THINK the author's hidden message is in this story?

Most reviews are highly favorable.
Reading how other people reacted to the movie may help you formulate your own review
