… to pro­tect your fam­ily? That’s the ques­tion Kevin Bacon has to answer in Death Sen­tence. Obvi­ously, Nick Hume (Bacon) comes to the con­clu­sion that under the given cir­cum­stances there are no lim­its. Pro­tect­ing one’s fam­ily even jus­ti­fies killing oth­ers, as shown by the trailer. The film should be in the­aters on 31st August, 2007. As usual, there’s a nice trailer avail­able over at Apple.

I don’t know about you but I think I’d turn into some­thing like Nick Hume myself. I do under­stand his moti­va­tion and I know it’s against the law. On the other hand, nei­ther the law nor I are with­out flaws. I don’t think I’d ever kill a human being out of vengeance but doing so for self-preservation and the pro­tec­tion of my fam­ily sounds per­fectly rea­son­able. Well, that’s quite some­thing to pon­der about if I should ever come into a posi­tion like that. I seri­ously hope I never will. Accord­ing to the crime rate in my coun­try I shouldn’t fear.
