Has anyone seen the new movie Felon yet?

It's a very disturbing film about an ordinary, decent, hard-working guy who's prosecuted/imprisoned for being overly zealous defending his home during a robbery.

Bottom line, which you find out in the first minute, is that he kills a crook who appears to be drawing a gun while fleeing his house, with a baseball bat -- hope that's not a spoiler! I honestly don't know how realistic the whole premise is but it was certainly thought provoking. (The movie also presents one of the worst views of American prison life I've seen on film.)

Here's a snippet from one review that I think sums up how many people would feel about this movie.

This tough, uncompromising, cautionary thriller should be a wake-up call about America's outrageously archaic laws insofar as defending the sanctity of home and family.

I think a number of people here would be interested in seeing this just for the issues it raises. (Yes, the ending is ridiculous, but it's just an afterthought here...)
