River Runs Red
When the son of a successful judge is killed by two police officers and the system sets them free, a hardened veteran detective finds some incriminating files on the officers and the judge teams up with another mourning father to take the law into his own hands.
Where to watch
OK for ages 12+, with caveats: moderate violence, moderate language
