Negative Positive
Title: Wow. Famous film. Horrible movie.
Review: Can't deny that "Death Wish" is a cultural icon, but blast me if i don't know why. Maybe it's not that it responded to the high crime rates of the mid 70s in an effective way, but that the crime rates were high in the 70s because society was going thru such a stupid period that movies like "Death Wish" became box office successes. Bad acting, cliched writing, slow pacing, mindless story. i dont feel like writing about it anymore. it doesn't merit more thought.
Is the review positive or negative?
