James Wan (Saw) brings the ultra-violence to this gritty story of a suburban father (Kevin Bacon) who discovers the consequences of revenge after his son is murdered. The perpetrators of this senseless killing are a multi-ethnic (and highly visible) gang of drug dealers and cutthroats led by the psychotic Billy Darley (Garrett Hedlund); when the case is thrown out on a technicality, Bacon takes a page from Charles Bronson's book (no surprise, as this is based on author Brian Garfield's 1975 follow-up to Death Wish) and pursues a vigilante course to avenge his boy. Things do not go according to Bacon's plan, which cues a series of frantic and well-executed action set pieces, most notably a parking structure chase that unfolds in a nearly unbroken take. Death Sentence breaks no new ground in the action-thriller department, and its characters and dialogue are nearly indistinguishable from any violent crime movie of the last few decades (in its weakest moments, it resembles grindhouse fare like The Exterminator); however, Bacon is excellent (as always) as the mild-mannered architect who discovers his inner killer the hard way, and Wan's knack for screen mayhem and unsettling atmosphere are well used here. The DVD includes both the theatrical version and an unrated cut (which offers 10 additional minutes), as well as two making-of featurettes that originally aired on the Fox Movie Channel, and several webisodes that focus on director Wan, his cast, and the film's elaborate stunts and fight scenes. -- Paul Gaita

I'm a huge fan of vigilante movies those are my guilty pleasures; even some of the weaker ones of the genre I cannot help, but enjoy. I like the ones where the vigilante is your average person I always find those to work the best and they also have a good what if? If you lost a loved one to a senseless and violent act could you bring yourself to kill the people responsible?
Death Sentence is one of the most frustrating movies I have ever seen; the problem is the concept is great and ... Read More

A parents worst nightmare comes to life in "Death Sentence." Watch it, and see what you'd do in Kevin Bacon's shoes???

I was looking forward to this one ever since I saw the first trailer, but thought I would hold off until it was on DVD. I finally got around to watching it tonight and I'm really glad I didn't rush to see Death Sentence at the theater. Kevin Bacon does a decent job acting, but I didn't find any of the gang members believable at all. John Goodman was wasted and Aisha Tyler, as the cop ally, wasn't needed. The plot was the same old story it always is in these kinds of movies, so I won't say the story ... Read More
