Negative Positive
Title: Ahh....
Review: Okay for the seventies I guess, considering I wasn't even born during this film's release. I am not a Charles Bronson fan because all of his films seem to be one Death Wish after the other ( and I don't mean the actual sequels ). Charles was believable in the role but the movie got stupid when he started whacking muggers on the street. It was as if we were supposed to believe he'd snapped because of his daughter and wife's tragic situation, but the film never showed him progressing into that sort of state. At one moment he was dealing with his wife's death and his daughter's rape, the next he was killing folks, but he still ACTED as normal as he was before. I didn't think the writing or the direction was done very well, but for Charles Bronson fans, it scores. I was impressed by Jeff Goldblum most of all. He wasn't on screen long but he left a lasting impact. Jeff was fabulous as a rapist and great in his first role.
Is the review positive or negative?
