Bronson Triple Threat Collection [3 Discs] [Blu-ray]

Not the Death Wish set as it's the "Bronson Triple Threat Collection" as the original Death Wish movie is missing from this set. Really? That would have added another $5 to this, maybe?? AND missing Death Wish 5??? That would have been ten cents more. Tops. The series got cheesier and more violent as Bronson got older and the studio's felt audiences needed to be wooed with more as the mid 80s gave way to bigger budget action stars. Charles Bronson was 61 when he made Death Wish II in 1982 and his real wife at the time, Jill Ireland, played his onscreen love interest. Tragically, everyone who gets close to Paul Kersey dies, sets off a Korean War vet's vengeance and blood lust. Unfortunately, as the series went on, the production values and budget dropped, B-listers were co-stars until you didn't recognize who any of the actors were. I have Death Wish, but where in the heck am I going to find Death Wish 5, just to say I have the complete series that 20th Century Fox decided to leave the last and least movie out of this collection? Seeing these movies in HD was a pleasant treat as I saw most of these in the theater and have them on DVD. Bronson is one of my favorite original tough guys.

I decided to purchase the three movies pack because of the price and because of the movies that were included in the package. Of course because it was in the blu-ray formatformat. These are movies that I saw when I was younger much, much younger and I just had not seen them for a long long time, so I decided to purchase them rather than rent so I could view them when I wished. It was fun to see Charles Bronson in action again and to view these movies that were produced so very long ago with the issues at that time, still relevant in our country today.

This is a very entertaining dvd collection The set contains the Death Wish movies made in the 1980s 2 ,3 & 4. Charles Bronson was huge box office star during the 70's and 80's and a fan favorite. The collection is nicely packaged and features some great music from Jimmy Page. These are some of the best action films ever made. The directors Michael Winner and Lee J Thompson are superb. The sale price at Best Buy made this a must have. Blue Ray makes all the more enjoyable.

These are the sequels to the original Death Wish starring Charles Bronson. He is an architect that has to get revenge on criminals and unjust people that harm other everyday citizens. He is moved to become a vigilante after personal tragedy... Instead of letting the police handle it and get no where.. He takes justice into his own hands. Great soundtracks and action films.

Even though the original is not present, this is a great collection nonetheless. From the satisfaction of Kersey finding his nemeses in Death Wish II (something that didn’t happen in the first), to the undeniably great ending to Death Wish III and the propaganda of Death Wish IV. This series has always been enjoyable and I’m glad to finally own them all.

Been waiting for a Blu Ray release for these. Where the first Death Wish holds it’s more serious tone, the sequels go completely off the rails by the 4th entry, but in good way. Over the top & satisfyingly insane. 3 & 4 become crazy & complete laugh riots at the ridiculous characters & plot lines the series establishes. Well worth the buy.

Im a sucker for a Bronson Death Wish film, although they probably jumped the shark at two. This gives you 2,3 and 4 for a low price and is worth it if your a fan of Bronson and his Paul Kersey character. Totally lacking extra's it's movies only and not sure why they didn't through in Death wish 5, but if you have seen that one you went way past the shark jump. Good mindless entertainment not for kids.

While not the best example of Bronson's action flicks, you can't go wrong with 3 Death Wish singles for such a low price. The lack of extras also reflects the low price. If you've read "Bronson's Loose! The Making of the Death Wish Films" by Paul Talbot, these films are even better!
