Do we believe in famously tough Russell Crowe asking, “Show me where the bullets go”? Hardly, but Crowe has haggard moral weight as a Pittsburgh teacher whose wife (Elizabeth Banks) is imprisoned for murder. Director-writer Paul (Crash) Haggis, retooling the French Pour elle, details Crowe’s increasingly criminal effort to free her. Despite vivid action bursts, the tension drags, and with Liam Neeson and Brian Dennehy very marginal, it is Crowe’s show. (2010) — David Elliott
