One of Bronson's best!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just finished watching this blu-ray last night and reminded me how good of an actor Charles Bronson is. It is one of the first vigilante movies I can think of, if not the best. A long with "Dirty Harry" and "Taxi driver" it's one of the best of that era. It is also one of Bronson's best along with "Hard times".

A gritty, influential film
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This film comes from a period in the early 1970s where filmmakers were turning out urban thrillers that were very dark, gritty, even brutal. "Death Wish" is a premere example of this genre, an influential film that is definitely not for all tastes. But I am surprised and happy to see this released on Blu-ray with a SteelBook case.

Revenge never so sweet.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I remember seeing this as a teenager, it was brutal I mean more than "Dirty Harry" brutal. A tour de force performance from Charles Bronson he should of won an Oscar for his performance. It's probably his greatest performance in his long career. Jeff Goldblume was brutal.

The Orginal Vigilante now on Blu
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice to finally get the 40th Anniversary blu-ray of Death Wish, movie still holds up even after 40 years. Charles Bronson in his heyday, an early appearance of Jeff Goldblum. Only caveat is for an anniversary edition it is a little light on the special features. Based on the strength of the movie itself it is highly recommended.

The 1970s classic vigilante film
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I watched this on VHS at too young an age. The violence may seem unrealistic compared to current standards, but the topic remains salient as we continue to struggle with crime and the sense of powerlessness in fighting it and defending ourselves. For many, this is Charles Bronson's quintessential film and character.

A Throwback with Blowback
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.controversial when it was first released, one would assume that would soften over time, especially after it's far more over the top and violent sequels and quasi remakes. Yet, somehow this film still makes a very real impact. A real piece of seventies cinema.
