6/10
Low, but watchable

Warning: Spoilers
May be spoilers. Kinjite:Forbidden Subjects is not one of Charles Bronsons best movies, but is better then what most have said on here. The movie deals with a cop (Bronson)trying to take down a lowlife child pimp and rescue a Japanese girl from him. As with most Bronson films, he deals out his own brand of justice rather then doing it by the book. As one reviewer said already this is truly a movie about what goes around comes around. For instance,the father of the Japanese girl molests Bronsons daughter on a bus and ironically its his daughter that gets snatched by the pimp "duke". Forbidden Subjects does not contain the large body count that Bronson racks up in other movies, but contains some great moments, such as Bronson forcing the pimp to eat his diamond Rolex and then let some jailbird have his way with the pimp, thats justice. Although the subject matter is a bit sickening, the movie is well made and the actors do a good job with there roles. Although Bronson is by far not the best actor in Hollywood there are far worse actors out there getting praise for nothing. Overall, its good for a watch but I would probably skip on buying it.
