This is the scene where Clyde goes to court. LINK TO RE-UPLOAD WITH BETTER AUDIO: • Video (BLOCKED IN SOME COUNTRIES) Note: Everything you see in this video is produced and created by Roadshow Entertainment.
i proudly admit it! we need someone to actually pull something like this off to scare these criminals into following their own laws. the US legal system is a cesspool. check out www.stloiyf.com
Could have been better if the ending is like Nick attending his daughter's recital and a guy comes over to him and whispered, "See ya later, Nick." before walking away.
I tend to go for human. I just prefer the human noble backstory. Dwarves are great thought with their 10% magic resistance and extra two points in strength at the start.
the way he did Darby....a real criminal with no morals, no respect for the innocent, no respect for society......I loved it. THAT is justice, even if Shelton did it the illegal way. That scene...just wow.
yes, but real justice prevailed in the end. He murdered innocent people in his quest for revenge. And he LOST. In the end, he was outsmarted, and he knew it, before his impending death, you could see the resignation and shock in his face. Great, great movie.
@@MrMaddox57 BS ending. "Outsmarted"? That ending was cheap. Like it was put together last minute. The men who r*ped and killed his wife and daughter got what they deserved. The judge? Maybe, maybe not. But the scene of her being arrogant and cocky right before she gets her head blown off by a phone is satisfying. People like that shouldn't be in power anyways. And the cops? Collateral damage. All in all the ending reminds us why he did it.
@@MrMaddox57lol Jamie fox bitches n moaned about the ending. N said he wouldn’t finish the movie if his character died. So they changed the ending to help the clown baby bitch fox. We all know who actually outsmarted who. And it wasn’t the black corrupt lawyer 🤡 it’s not what u know it’s what u can prove.
Know what I love? The change in his tone as they drag him away. "See ya later, Nick." He leaves calm and content knowing they all played perfectly into his hands. Hilarious! This is what most movies nowadays are missing - villains whose motives we could possibly relate to (in theory, anyway) and whose intelligence we can respect.
The dark yet true fact is, he’s right. He played The Judge and she looked gullible for it, she had no idea what kind of person Clyde is, before his outburst he just made himself look innocent. He just showed them what these monsters and animals do in real life. It’s why murderers, rapists and other sick minded criminals get less than 5 years or bail and then they’re back out on the streets doing the exact same thing.
I thought of it more as though they treated the courts the same way we order food at a fast food joint. They only work for themselves and not the people. If they had looked into every case on their desk the same way the victims do, criminals would be locked up for at minimum 20 years for the crimes you listed. But they would rather get their paycheck, cover their reputation, and pass every case like an assembly line so they can sleep easier. Partly why they have such low sentences is also the same reasons Nick had which is the lawyers want to have the best rep for their clients, essentially treating it like a business than a civil duty. Another is also due to managing the occupancy of jails. The county sheriff doesn’t want to do the legwork to holding as many serial criminals as possible because of money, but assuming the public perception was positive with their local government, nobody would regret passing a bill to increase taxes to put away as many criminals as possible. Only reason you don’t hear it every day is because the sheriff would have to do his job, but they would rather sit on their arse and collect a paycheck. Most civil servants in government are there to collect a paycheck. If we replaced them with the ones in 1789, crime would be at 1%, capital punishment would be booming for serial offenders, and if that wouldn’t work we would ship them off to a different country like how the world is doing to us today.
They're called Hazers, and they are often used to help diffuse the light sources so that they are not as harsh throughout the entire scene. It's a pretty standard filmmaking trick, and like some fog machines they're set to disperse on a timer. Guess someone just forgot to turn this one off.
It's the most insane thing how a ruling can be changed purely out of the judge's emotions. 100% was in contempt of court, however, this is a situation, with what evidence was presented, that deserved bail no matter what
After years of watching this movie, I just got what he really meant by "You were about to let me go. Are you kidding me? This is why we're here in the first place."
I think what the 7 month old comment is trying to say is that it isn't the laws in question that are flawed, but rather the people enforcing those laws.
+Gaming With Balance Um no they aren't. How is the judge or the lawers flawed in this scene? Cylde literally said they had no physical evidence that he even committed the crimes he was accused of, meaning the judge, by law, HAS to let him go. I mean, how was he even arrested in the first place when there was no proof he was involved? This whole movie is really stupid
ShinobiPXO hey sorry to necro this thread but a man Clyde had motive to kill was killed on Clyde's property violently. I think they can hold him for that
+Sebastian Smith Yeah and Cylde literally says he owns several properties and that someone could have easily broken in to try and frame him. The only thing they have was that he had motivation, but no evidence at all. They even said they need him to confess or they had no case. And that's the problem with this movie. Cylde isn't getting away with it because he's taking advantage of the legal system. He's getting away with his crimes because he's smart enough not to make any kind of mistake. He's not proving the legal system to be at fault. Just that he's God in this movie because he can literally do anything
Sad thing is, this movie completely manipulated the audience into thinking perceived guilt is enough to waive away the constitution. Doesn’t matter if you knew he was guilty or not, the state had no evidence, he shouldn’t have been held on bail, hence why Clyde forced the judges hand by making himself held in contempt of court to have his bail revoked. You are innocent until proven guilty not guilty until proven innocent
This...is exactly what needs to be said about our so called justice system. He was so right..when he said at the end...it all has to change...indeed. it does.
This movie could have been awesome if it wasn't for the Ending. Why Jaime Foxx have to be a hero in every movie? With this, it was done in such a unbelievable way. The movie would have been 10x better if the bomb went off. It would have been better if the bomb squad defused it in the tick of time.... but no... they went the other way..... jesus
+Jason Johnson It was supposed to end with gerrard butlers character 'winning'. But some way into filming Jamie Foxx apparently refused to continue working unless the story was changed so that his character would win because he felt if the bad guy won it would send out a bad message...
+WelshJJ Damn. Do you have the link for that interview? I tried searching it on Google but nothing came up, I'm interested in what Foxx's reasons were.
+WelshJJ If that's true, then that's a pretty bad reason. I feel as if having the bad guys always lose in fiction is sometimes a bad message, since it gives the idea that all bad people don't get away with the stuff they do; in which sadly in real life, a lot do. Besides Gerard Butler's character had a reason to do the stuff he did, and it wasn't for fun at. The people he was killing who were involved in the law system are probably responsible for a lot more murders and rapes and other crimes to have happened, since they allowed the criminals to walk free, even though there were a lot of evidence against them.
Actually, the real problem with Judge's decision making was not her being ready to let Clyde go, it's the reasons why she changed her opinion and denied him bail afterwards - THAT was the real exposure. Even though she acted like she knew the bullshit courtcase that Clyde cited, remember that he used it to show the "slippery-slopeness", an argument that arguably has nothing to do with the state proving him guilty beyond a shadow of the doubt. But then he started insulting her to get rise out of her, and she actually changed her ruling based on his disrespect towards her, not based on him ACTUALLY being guilty. Hell, I might call judge a shithead, a dumbass and a fucking gimpwit, but it shouldnt affect his judgement on whether I'm actually guilty of the things Im being charged with. The most that should get me is a fine for disrespecting the law process, but not a fucking GUILTY verdict what the actual FUCK
+aygecko This wasn't a plea of guilt or innocents. This was bail or no bail. Judges and prosecutors have a wide range of discretion regarding it. Honestly, though it could have gone either way. A seemingly honest, educated man with ties to the community is less than a flight risk than, say a ghetto thug, who shows contempt to a functioning healthy society. One of these two are more likely to RUN and not show up for court. That's what bail is all about.
+aygecko I feel like I shouldn't fan this flame of so long ago but I will anyway. You missed a crucial factor here. This wasn't a trial, it was a bail hearing. They didn't convict him of anything here, he's just arguing if he should be released immediately before the trial ("...I'm not a flight risk...") while the prosecution says he needs to be kept there before trial. In fact that talk of evidence from both sides was nonsense in this setting because the bail hearing has nothing to do with evidence.
Imagine if you were in this situation as the defendant and had not committed the crime. Should prosecutors be aloud to keep you in jail without a single piece of evidence and no confession submitted? I know this is a 3 year old comment but the idea stands that you have to view both sides of the situation.
And the judge denied his bail in the end not because he demonstrated himself as a flight risk, but because he hurt the judge's feelings. Bail is used to ensure a defendant appears in court, not as a punitive measure. So she broke the rules and her professionalism as a judge to get back at him.
Who decides what is right and what is wrong? We have courts and a process to do that, so while his "speech" may sound fun- it's in fact little different than advocating for a show trial in some Banana Republic.
Ok, but here, in this court room- why shouldn't the judge accept the argument "The state has no evidence, and therefore has no basis for restricting my freedom"? What if it was an actual trial, how could anyone determine who's right with our constitutional due process rights?
+Alex DeLarge Can we start with some presuppositions? For example: Life is preferable to death? Health is preferable to sickness? Pleasure is preferable to pain? That the well-being of an individual or individuals is ultimately the foundation on which we should rest?
This scene is so fascinating, it shows just how careless the justice system is. "You jump on it like a bitch in heat!" He was playing her the whole time, trying to make an example that you could do the worst thing possible and the system would reduce your much deserved sentence
I love the look on fox's face, like this guy jsut got his own bail, he won, and he could have been out ont he street if he wanted to. But then purposefully shot himself in the foot. like the confusion of that, the man WANTED to have his bail denied but only after he had it in his hands.
i was kind of thinking for a bit.. damn why couldnt he have just let it go and got out on bail.. but then again he pretty much pointed out the foolishness of the justice system in some pretty bad ways..
I just love movies like this. People actually have the guts to die one a hill and are fed up with things that are wrong and preventable. I feel like this too and don’t have the ability to hurt others and lack the constriction to break the law like Gerard’s character did.I could never bring myself to do what he did in this film but I respect tf out of it.
Nick (Foxx) deserved to lose, and Clyde (Butler) deserved to win. The script went through many rewrites, and many proposed endings were scrapped for the one they left in the movie. The anti-climactic, dull, “happy” ending. Clyde deserved to win because he was smarter, more capable, took 10 years to plan what he did, and he was fighting to expose the broken legal system, in the name of his wife and daughter. Nick valued his career and conviction rate over people’s lives, even over his own family. How can you make 2/3rds of a good movie, and not see how to perfectly end it?
So apparently Clyde Shelton doesn't think evidence should be important in court. Just as long as the DA thinks someone's guilty, lock them right the fuck up. Brilliant.
I wouldnt mind a remake of this movie with gerard butler and Jamie fox opposite roles. I know they changed roles before they filmed but it would be cool hearing how the dialogue would be. Same story, same ending.
The way I see this is scene is that not only did Clyde Shelton Did what he did to mock/insult the judge who handled his family’s case but also wanted to mock and insult Nick as well who kept touting to him a and everyone that he was the best lawyer and he was full of himself by showing to Nick and his team and everyone that even though he has no legal training, education or even council he can do Nicks job on his own and way better. Best face rub moment and humbling moment he could do to Nick.
Such a great scene; I liked this movie well enough (even though I can't ignore the scenes where Gerard's Scottish accent gets really strong (isn't Shelton American?) and I'm sorry to say it but I didn't like that ending, too forced; still consider it one of Gerard's best. Almost forgot he was an actor.

My favorite line is when he says "hey see you later Nick" in the calmest voice ever like nothing happened.
Brandon Trotta LMAOOO, he says it so calmly haha
He said it like nick was the 1 going to jail
+Brandon Trotta Yes he says it like whatever.
I also liked the part when he said “I bet you take it up the fuckin’ ass, bitch!” to the judge. Gets me every time. 😂
+Seabee156 😂😂😂😂😂
Admit it, we all wanted to see Gerald Butler win in the end,
Ive heard that the original script had him win but fox wanted to change it.

now I am wondering if the judge lady actually does take it up the ass. Clyde is a pretty good judge of people.

Hi. I'd like to place an order of savage with no side of chill
The principal of this scene. Scares me how many get off because of this shit.
how using legal terms and rules bends the rules to allow criminals to get off on jail time.
Imagine if you were in this situation as the defendant and had not committed the crime. Should prosecutors be aloud to keep you in jail without a single piece of evidence and no confession submitted? I know this is a 3 year old comment but the idea stands that you have to view both sides of the situation.
Mirgjan Kupi i just watched this movie yesterday for the 1st time... it is epic... i choose to believe that the lawyer's tie exploded in the end XD
HOW MISGUIDED ARE YOU?!
Best part of this scene:
"Hey, see ya later, Nick!"
And the judge denied his bail in the end not because he demonstrated himself as a flight risk, but because he hurt the judge's feelings. Bail is used to ensure a defendant appears in court, not as a punitive measure. So she broke the rules and her professionalism as a judge to get back at him.
He just melted her ass with that last line 💀😂
Judge Burch: “I would tread carefully Mr. Shelton”
Mr Shelton: “Carefully...
... This Is SPARTA!!!!”
(Kicks Judge into a hole.)
Some Oscar deserving acting i see here Gerald Butler incredible and amazing actor!!!
2:28 I love his reaction.
i feel like this is what is actually wrong with today’s judicial system
I like how Nick and the judge are in complete WTF mode like " Why in the world did he just do that "
hey, see ya later Nick
The sad part about his speech is that it’s not fiction. This is everyday in states like New York, Illinois and California
This man is just a hero.
One of the my favorite scenes of all time.
He is right! I agree with Clyde, what happened to right and wrong?
Who decides what is right and what is wrong? We have courts and a process to do that, so while his "speech" may sound fun- it's in fact little different than advocating for a show trial in some Banana Republic.
Here_Pep_Pep Its called morals.
Great, did you just graduate 8th grade? How do you prove someone committed a crime?
Here_Pep_Pep Well i would be pretty certain if i saw a guy kill my wife and possibly rape my child (it wasnt disclosed in the movie).
Ok, but here, in this court room- why shouldn't the judge accept the argument "The state has no evidence, and therefore has no basis for restricting my freedom"?
What if it was an actual trial, how could anyone determine who's right with our constitutional due process rights?
Hey see ya later Nick.
Ugh he’s such a good actor
whatever happened to right and wrong?
william sewell Bail denied.
william sewell Was there EVER a right and wrong?
Alex DeLarge yeah
william sewell Prove it.
+Alex DeLarge Can we start with some presuppositions? For example: Life is preferable to death? Health is preferable to sickness? Pleasure is preferable to pain? That the well-being of an individual or individuals is ultimately the foundation on which we should rest?
One of the best films ever
This scene is so fascinating, it shows just how careless the justice system is.
"You jump on it like a bitch in heat!"
He was playing her the whole time, trying to make an example that you could do the worst thing possible and the system would reduce your much deserved sentence
it was shaping up to be such a great movie, unfortunately, the ending sucked!
0:16 it's like smoke is coming from his eyes
not really
that actually made me lol
More like the woman is on fire :D
I guess all that fighting for Sparta really messed up his head. :P
Insanity? At the end makes this hilarious 😂
This movie is a shining example of how broken our court system is.
Jamie and Gerald both proved that they are both extremely talented actors......I was rooting for Geralds character all along tho.
0:27 Maybe unintended but I like how Gerald answer the 3 time the judge called him by giving 3 Yes 😂
THIS SCENE!!!!!!!! IT'S SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!
Lmao the last part before they dragged him out 🤣😂
This movie wouldve been one of my fav movies of all times if it wasnt for the end
Quality acting from Gerard Butler, you can see the look of sheer disbelief in his face at 1:43 as he’s about to be let out
I love the look on fox's face, like this guy jsut got his own bail, he won, and he could have been out ont he street if he wanted to. But then purposefully shot himself in the foot. like the confusion of that, the man WANTED to have his bail denied but only after he had it in his hands.
One of the best scenes I've ever seen in a movie. Awesome movie
The point is you can’t win against the system even if you are right
2:50 haha funniest thing is she called for the officer to complain why he told Clyde that she does take it lmffao
“So i just read a couple of lines and you just give in” I am blown away 😮
That moment when he even cited the docket number, then you'll know you're screwed..
i was kind of thinking for a bit.. damn why couldnt he have just let it go and got out on bail.. but then again he pretty much pointed out the foolishness of the justice system in some pretty bad ways..
How is this foolish? It's literally in our constitution.
Well you should see the movie to understand why he didn't want the bail.
The funny things is,even after Gerard gives up his freedom in front of Jamie for the sake of justice, Jamie acts like none of it happened.
I just love movies like this. People actually have the guts to die one a hill and are fed up with things that are wrong and preventable. I feel like this too and don’t have the ability to hurt others and lack the constriction to break the law like Gerard’s character did.I could never bring myself to do what he did in this film but I respect tf out of it.
lol the "See you later nick" was casual I just had to laugh.
Best part of this seen is there you go jump on it like a bitch In heat omg
I died when he said "see you later nick!!" Lol 😂😂😂🙏🏼
very relevant and thought provoking . a villain must-watch movie
Nick (Foxx) deserved to lose, and Clyde (Butler) deserved to win. The script went through many rewrites, and many proposed endings were scrapped for the one they left in the movie. The anti-climactic, dull, “happy” ending. Clyde deserved to win because he was smarter, more capable, took 10 years to plan what he did, and he was fighting to expose the broken legal system, in the name of his wife and daughter. Nick valued his career and conviction rate over people’s lives, even over his own family. How can you make 2/3rds of a good movie, and not see how to perfectly end it?
He couldn't have said "hey, see ya later nick" any scarier than that.
This movie can easily apply to real life incidents. RIP Aaron Swartz.
I mean he actually deserved bail tho lmao there was no evidence
So we just gonna continue with court ????? Somebody help her!! 0:16 She'll burn to death!!
This is the greatest scene in movie history.
So apparently Clyde Shelton doesn't think evidence should be important in court. Just as long as the DA thinks someone's guilty, lock them right the fuck up.
Brilliant.
I wouldnt mind a remake of this movie with gerard butler and Jamie fox opposite roles. I know they changed roles before they filmed but it would be cool hearing how the dialogue would be. Same story, same ending.
2:28 Jamie's reaction
Legendary
The way I see this is scene is that not only did Clyde Shelton Did what he did to mock/insult the judge who handled his family’s case but also wanted to mock and insult Nick as well who kept touting to him a and everyone that he was the best lawyer and he was full of himself by showing to Nick and his team and everyone that even though he has no legal training, education or even council he can do Nicks job on his own and way better. Best face rub moment and humbling moment he could do to Nick.
That first little twitch when the judge agrees with him, when his disgust starts to surface.
Fun Fact: Gerald Butler had his career set to be a lawyer, pursue law school. However, acting was his true passion.

@2:50 when someone randomly guesses your big secret.
Such a great scene; I liked this movie well enough (even though I can't ignore the scenes where Gerard's Scottish accent gets really strong (isn't Shelton American?) and I'm sorry to say it but I didn't like that ending, too forced; still consider it one of Gerard's best. Almost forgot he was an actor.
Loved this scene. I just hate how it ended.
Awesome scene! At 0:15 you can see the smoke in the background as Gerard starts to, "blow smoke" aka bullshit
This movie is amazing
With how well prepared he was & how much he knew about everyone, I bet she probably does too. 😂
I just love this scene.
This movie hits different these days. What with cashless bail letting criminals right back out on the streets
0:15 She is overthinking it
Frustrating ending to such an amazing movie..
Gerard Butler is amazing in this movie and loves how he gets his revenge on the justice system.
They just don't like being outsmarted by an average guy.
