The beginning of this final installment of the long-running "Death
Wish" series is shaky with inappropriate humor (even the title comes
off as a tasteless pun, as a central character is disfigured by having
her face bashed into a mirror) and a lot of mobster-movie clich...

This is a very good Bronson thriller, that's at times creepy, with an
amazing performance from Charles Bronson!. It's pretty engaging, and at
times very creepy, and the ending was very memorable, plus it had quite
a few shocking moments. The first 10 minutes were absolutely fantastic,
it had lots of tension and was very creepy, and it was cool to see
Bronson do something differ...

This was the next to last film appearance by Jill Ireland, who died of
cancer in 1990 after four decades as a well-known actress and producer.
Ireland made quite a few waves in the press when she dropped her
then-husband David McCallum in 1967, beginning her long relationship
with Charles Bronson. It is a great irony that Bronson, probably the
all-time leader in number of death...

Our group watched this on valentine's day and I can tell you that it
was a wonderful idea. We ended up writing down as many of those
excellent 80's insults as possible, and our list ended up filling an
entire page. You just don't see movies anymore where a major character
says things like "I must have boogers for brains," or "eat it toe jam,"
let alone calls Bronson a "Snot Lic...

I think it definitely is. The writing is of such a quality that
beginner students of the English language should model their
conversations after its dialogue. For example, the exchange between
Paul Kersey(Bronson) and Ms. Kathryn Davis(Deborah Raffin) (more about
this character later) is extremely clear and to the point: Ms. Davis
says, "I hope you like chicken. It's the only t...

During an eight-year stretch of the 1980s when Charles Bronson made
nine films, only one was released by a company other than the Cannon
Group: 'The Evil That Men Do,' a TriStar Films pickup from Sir Lew
Grade's ITC Entertainment firm. Bronson was already in the thick of his
collaborations with director J. Lee Thompson, which ran through
numerous actioners until ...

Be grateful for Michael Winner's sledgehammer sensitivity because it
produced this classic.None of Paul Kersey's (Charles Bronson) remaining family and friends get off
lightly in this twisted nightmare of domestic violence, anal rape, vigilante
justice and simplistic politics.For fans of rough justice, the rape of Bronson's Mexican housemaid is truly
amazing and eroticized like cra...

suggests, and even obtained a VHS copy to look it over more closely. Using
the leads posted by other readers, I have been able to glean the following
facts from various Internet and library resources concerning the strange
tale of The Mad Trapper of Rat River, played in Death Hunt by Charles

Charles Bronson is at his best when playing the silent tough guy, but in
this British-backed chase thriller he is let down by workmanlike direction
and a drearily routine script. Bronson's Phoenix cop, Charlie Congers, is
certainly a silent and tough character - just the kind of role old
Stone-Face usually excels at - but there are too many weaknesses in Love and
Bullets to mak...

A film that is historically accurate, Raid on Entebbe is engrossing and
exciting to watch. The actual raid on Entebbe was itself a very daring
rescue, and it translates extremely well to film. Even though you know the
outcome in advance, you will find yourself wanting to stay with the film
until the end. The actors are all excellent, and the sets extremely
realistic. Yaphet Kot...

To understand the failure of WHITE BUFFALO, one has to explain what
moviegoers and critics were expecting when the film was released back in
1977. WHITE BUFFALO was released in the late 1970s, in between KING KONG and ORCA,
which were all produced by Dino de Laurentiis. WHITE BUFFALO was seen then
as part of this unofficial "Big Animal on the Rampage" trilogy de Laurentiis

One effect of watching this one is that you will always read Frost's
"Stopping By Woods" from a very different point of view.No question, there's a whole lot of good acting in Don Siegel's "Telefon"
(from Tyne Daly, for instance), but the story, from Walter Wager's novel,
is, at least partly, ridiculous. Criticism of international secret policy
comes off o.k., claiming that what in...

made. It's not the action-packed thrill-fest that movies like "Kill

intoxicating look at our society's views on justice.Charles Bronson is Paul Kersey, a New York architect whose wife is

Why do I love Charles Bronson when he is at his best? "Mr. Majestyk" alone
gives about 103 minutes of good reason to do so. It's an excellent proof
that Bronson really was the biggest action stars of cinema history and
alongside with terrific classics like "Once upon a time in the west", "The
Mechanic" and "Death wish" this is the film Bronson lovers will remember him
by.I love...

'Laughing Policeman'; 'Serpico', etc.....Another 'revi...

This totally under-rated mob film is right up there with the best mob
movies
(Godfathers 1 and 2, Scarface, Once Upon A Time In America, Goodfellas, A
Bronx Tale, Capone, Casino, Untouchables, etc). Charles Bronson, although
not italian, plays a very convincing role as mobster turned "rat" Joe
Valachi. The scenes are never boring and the acting is excellent.

Another classic Bronson movie and not to be missed. This time Charles is
Arthur Bishop, a merciless, unfeeling, uncaring and strictly by the book
assassin who is the standard by which all other professional killers are
measured. Meticulous to a fault and as calculatingly efficient as can be,
Bishop systematically completes his missions and returns to his mansion each
night. ...

VILLA RIDES (1968) turns out to be something of a big disappointment!
And even though Sam Peckinpah had a hand in the screenplay, along with
Robert Towne, it still emerges as a leadenly written movie dryly
directed by the undistinguished Buzz Kulik. Firstly, top billed Yul
Brynner as Pancho Villa is wrong for the part! He's not charismatic
enough to play the great Mexican ...

As a big fan of Elvis Presley, Gig Young, and Charles Bronson, as well
as the sport of boxing, I enjoyed this movie for those reasons alone.
Elvis gives a decent performance, but is stereotyped by the script as a
goofy, goo-natured, lug-head, who has a natural gift of a cast-iron
chin and one-punch knockout power. Half the movie Elvis looks in a daze
