Hopefully, I'm not gushing, but the movie The Brave One should be required watching for anybody who plays or runs Dark Champions. This movie stars Jodi Foster and to be honest, it gets seriously dark and nasty about the whole vigilante thing, plus throws in a surprise ending that really makes the movie genuinely enjoyable.
There's plenty to nitpick as well, but overall it is an excellent movie. Don't let the slow start keep you from enjoying the whole thing -- it takes a while to set everything up, after all. Watching the main character slide from the mundane to the surreal was the most enjoyable, and it was done so well that congradulations are in order for the writer, director and Jodi.
Many aspects of being a vigilante are addressed, including screw-ups and secrecy issues, plus the fear (and secret desire) of discovery. If you play Dark Champions, you really need to see this movie.
