<p dir="auto">At times I was rooting for both. Early on I was all for his punishment against those involved in the horrible crime and the slack prosecution and against how smug Fox's character was. Eventually he went so far and so psycho that I rooted against him but never forgot how smug and belittling Fox was so I really never was fully rooting for Fox but agreed his adversary had to be stopped.<br />
Do you think we were supposed to root for Fox from the very outset or that it was supposed to change throughout the film?<br />

<p dir="auto">we are supposed to root for clyde. I wish he never would have been caught and that they would have made a sequel. nick would be the only one left and be rebuilding the justice system and clyde would have gotten out of prison scott free. they then both join forces to stop all the corruption in the U.S</p>

<p dir="auto">Neither.<br />
I'm happy they finally outsmarted Clyde but I'm upset that they show Nick Rice winning so smugly.<br />
I'm also disappointed the mayor got away completely unscathed.<br />
She's bishing about Clyde when she should have made her city less violent.</p>

<p dir="auto">neither, I was rooting for neither. Butler was more interesting/charming/pitiable, but I can't root for methodically killing a bunch of people just to make a point and thus was hoping he'd be outsmarted and stopped. But Foxx's character was boring and just seemed like a callous jerk the whole time. He barely seemed affected when all those people he knew were dying around him, was unsympathetic to his wife, etc</p>

<p dir="auto">In my case,<br />
Gerard Butler<br />
's character!<br />
Prostitute: What the <em>beep</em> are you doing?<br />
Johnny: I'm gonna kill a bunch of people.</p>

<p dir="auto">I was rooting for Gerard Butler, even though he went full phsycho haha<br />
And yes because Jamie Fox was so <em>beep</em> arrogant, so really hoped that <em>beep</em> would get killed in the movie.</p>

<p dir="auto">I think the clever thing with this movie is that most people eventually wind up rooting for both "teams".<br />
I was all in on Gerard Butlers team, right up until he blew all those cars up - which I felt was taking it way to far.<br />
After that I was still on his side, but I was also hoping Foxx would find a way to make him stop, and that there would be some consideration taken to him and his crimes, given the circumstances.<br />
But at the very end, he had taken it so far beyond reason that there was no way for it to end any different than it did - and I was totally fine with that.</p>

<p dir="auto">I love both these guys, so this was hard for me. For about a minute. Then I saw the horror his family went through, and the way one of the rapists/murderers made a deal and walked. After that, I was pro-GB all the way. I think he should have been given a big chunk of money, a keychain made out of the bad guy's pinky toe, and a pony.<br />
This happens so much more often than you know. I speak from experience. In cases like these, I say let the family take care of the bad guy(s) and let the cops go back to writing speeding tickets.</p>
