Review:
So if you are looking for a comedy filled with ridiculously impossible stunts and unrealistic everything then you need to see this. I laughed until I just about cried, and I found this immensely entertaining...but to say it's a "good movie" is rather difficult. So this is the last in the Death Wish series which I generally love...at this point Charles Bronson is rather aged, and in love with a fashion designer person with a little girl. Little girl's Father happens to be some sort of mobster bad guy who's posse attacks Bronson's girlfriend. What choice does he have but to go all vigilante on their asses? This time he isn't always using guns and easy weapons like that...no he goes for poisons, wood chippers and saws and things...(which don't seem to really belong at a fashion design warehouse but what do I know?). It's got plenty of insane violence, enough to satisfy most anyone and plenty 'o Bronson, what more could you want?

Availability:  On DVD
