Review:
Just when I thought I had seen everything, this Melon-choly tale about a woeful Melon farmer who has to take revenge. Who else would you cast in an epic like this other than Charles Bronson, from defending the streets to defending the melon patch! I'll bet you are wondering why I keep saying melon...well that's nothing in comparison to the amount of times you are about to hear it if you watch this film. Hilariously enough this is treated like a serious action film, even with this silly topic and I think that's the main reason to watch it. That and if you've ever wanted to see a melon massacre, you are guaranteed one! It's beyond stupid and the actress who plays the love interest is rather irritatingly bad in the acting department but luckily she's not in this a ton. The story also loses focus towards the end where it just turns into good guy vs. bad guys but it used to be all about the melons! It was something to see, but I think I would chose Death Wish 3 again before this one, it's better than Death Wish 4: The Crackdown though!
Availability: On DVD
