Are you thinking of 'Dead Man Walking' as the anti-death penalty film? I thought it was very fair and empathetic to the victim's families. R. Lee Ermey was in it!

No. Have you seen Mystic River? At the end, the victims father (Penn) kills the guy he thinks killed his daughter, only to find out an hour later that it was the wrong guy. See? They "killed an innocent man". That is the essence of the anti-death penalty argument these days. (In real life, they have found DNA that exonerates some people who have already been executed.)
