This got 26/75 on Rotten Tomatoes. I agreed with the viewers more than the reviewers on this one.
I caught this on regular TV, and it seemed like an attempt at an intelligent action flick (as far that can go). You didn't know who you wanted to win, but in some ways that made it a bit deeper than most action flicks. I liked it, but reviewers hated it.

If you want to see leftist bias in media, you just have to look at all the examples of how far off from their reviewers are from their viewers. I use the spread as a predictor of whether I'll like a film. Big spread with audience over critics? I'm going to like it. But big spread with critics over audience? I'll usually side with audience.

Tatometer Summary
RottenLAC.png Law Abiding Citizen - This had a 26/75 approval on Rotten Tomatoes (-49 points). That meant I wanted to see it. Since the Criminal Justice system wouldn't give him justice, he took the law into his own hands. That hits home too hard with lefties. They don't want to understand that part of the reason for laws punishing bad guys is to prevent the need for vigilantes and organized crime. So overly sympathetic Judges/prosecutors gets societal backlash. Thus the premise was ubsurd and violence was unecessary. To the rational, it was more complex exploration of good people doing bad things (or actions have consequences).
