Law Abiding Citizen is the story of Clyde Shelton (Butler), a top-notch former spy who learns that one of the criminals who killed his wife and daughter would be released on account of his cooperation with the district attorney’s office. Shelton seeks revenge, not just against the criminals, but the entire justice system.
