It’s about what you expect from a B action movie from the 80s. Has some fun moments sprinkled throughout but probably not enough that I’ll be seeking a second viewing down the road.

This probably isn't the right movie to come into the Death Wish series but I feel it committed the greatest sin for an action movie: it's boring. I counted only three interesting kill scenes.
Outside of having a geriatric Bronson slowly walking around, I found the entire relationship with his girlfriend to be so bizarre. She's looking for commitment, then her daughter dies from crack cocaine, and then she just disappears and isn't brought up again until the end. By that time, there's no emotional connection between the two that she might as well have been an extra.
