Here is the plot description for “Faster”:

After 10 years in prison, Driver (Dwayne Johnson) has a singular focus: to avenge the murder of his brother during the botched bank robbery that led to his imprisonment.

Now a free man with a deadly to-do list in hand, he’s finally on his mission. But he has two men on his trail: a veteran cop (Billy Bob Thornton) just days from retirement and a young, ego-centric hitman (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) with a flair for the art of killing. The hunter is also the hunted. It’s a do-or-die race to the list’s finish as the mystery surrounding his brother’s murder deepens and new details emerge along the way hinting that Driver’s list may be incomplete.

Dwayne Johnson (“Gridiron Gang,” “The Scorpion King,” “The Mummy Returns”), Billy Bob Thornton (“Eagle Eye,” “Monster’s Ball”) and newcomer Oliver Jackson-Cohen star with Carla Gugino (“Watchmen”), Maggie Grace (“Taken”) and Moon Bloodgood (“Terminator Salvation”) in “Faster”: a co-production between CBS Films (the film division within CBS Corp.) and TriStar Pictures (a division of Sony Pictures Entertainment).

George Tillman Jr. (“Notorious,” “Men of Honor,” “Soul Food”) directs from a screenplay by Joe Gayton and Tony Gayton. “Faster” wrapped principal photography in April 2010 and will hit U.S. theaters on Nov. 24, 2010. The film is produced by Castle Rock Entertainment’s Martin Shafer and Liz Glotzer along with Tony Gayton and State Street Pictures’ Robert Teitel. Joe Gayton and Dara Weintraub are executive producers.

Ultimate revenge

Keep laughing. Yep. If the person feels they’ve done something against you, next time you see them, just laugh it off. It will drive them crazy wondering, what’s so funny?

Revenge

The best way to achieve ultimate revenge is getting your just deserves and attaining complete vindication while incurring no recompense for your actions, because in the end, they were righteous.

Ultimate Revenge?

Well i think revenge is purely psychological. There has to be some definite mind games going on when it comes to revenge on anyone. I would start with the person’s family. And from there I would take away his job, personal belongings, bank account. I would do this until he is left with nothing and then hire someone to kidnap him and torture him to the extreme and make him regret that he messed with me. So it goes from psychological to physical in no time.
