ChatGPT is really good for these kinds of questions. Here’s what it said:
The movie you’re describing sounds like “Harsh Times” (2005), directed by David Ayer. It stars Christian Bale as Jim Davis, a troubled ex-soldier who gets involved in various criminal activities in Los Angeles. In one scene, Jim is approached by two gang members who rob him, leading to a series of violent events involving rival gangs. The film explores themes of crime, violence, and the challenges faced by veterans returning from war. “Harsh Times” is known for its gritty portrayal of street life in LA and intense performances, particularly by Bale.
Is it a good movie? It sounds good and Bale is always awesome in his roles.
