I have spent a LOT of time here rallying against remakes and my absolute hatred for them. And trust me, that hatred is nearly absolute. But, the fiance wanted to see this. And I read the reviews here, and I read the critic's reviews...and noticed that the critics all hated it on the basis of "NRA Propaganda" In other words they hated it because...politics. And I am really not a fan of that unless it's blatantly political. But, then I noticed that the audience reviews were largely the EXACT opposite of the critics reviews (with the odd absolute remake hater like me and the everything is political crowd). So, why was that...had to see it. And since ALL the Death Wist movies seemed to be exactly the same, might as well. Eli Roth...that name should say it all. It was graphic and gory and not in the boring Saw way, but in the fun ultra-violent entertainment way. And, really, I won't complain about that at all. It's one of the kind of movies I like for the sake of popcorn munching entertainment. And that is what you get here, pure entertainment with NO POLITICS, despite what the "everything is political crowd" says. It is JUST a super gory and graphic crime movie and nothing more, nothin
Read the whole review on TMDBAn entertaining (full of) action film. I enjoyed <em>'Death Wish'</em>, plain and simply. The action is satisfying, with it featuring some neat death scenes. The plot, meanwhile, is one that has heart to it. Bruce Willis is suitably fun in the titular role and is joined by the terrific Dean Norris. Camila Morrone is the pick of the rest of the cast. It's nothing deserving of any awards of course, but that's OK as this is a production well worth a watch - in my opinion at least. Not seen the original yet, will aim to check it (and its many sequels) out some time.
Read the whole review on TMDB79/100 Based on the 70's, Charles Bronson film, a man's wife is killed and his daughter placed in a coma during a home invasion. When the police appear to be helpless, he takes matters into his own hands. An incredibly well-paced, entertaining thriller. The original was extremely serious whereas this one is more escapist and psychotronic. Overall, It felt logical, nothing was forced, Bruce Willis was great, as usual, and it didn't try to copy or outdo the original or take itself too seriously. It was fun! - DrNostromo.com
