Death Wish is a violent film that has a lot to say about violence. It really ticked off the ultra-liberal do-gooders, but was a brilliant film. Unfortunately, it is films like this that make these doom and gloom leftists seem right! This film is not about an ordinary guy pushed to do extraordinary things as in Death Wish. No, he's sort of like the Terminator--using firebombs and shoulder launched missile to take out the bad guys! So, there is no subtlety--just mindless violence and trashy special effects designed to appeal to the lowest common denominator. This movie was deliberately written to attract and please dumb people who don't want to be bothered with good writing or intelligent plots. Avoid it like the plague and stick to the original great film.
