Truly Dreadful Film

Stylish but barely mediocre overall

The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

With the previous two movies being essentially the one and the same, then I was somewhat dreading sitting down to watch "Death Wish 3".However, at least this third movie has an original story to it. Sure, it wasn't an overly thrilling or impressive story, but it differed from the previous two movies to make it stand out.They did up the action quite a lot in this third movie, as there was a lot of action and fighting throughout most of the movie.The gang members that Paul Kersey (played by Charles Bronson) was fighting in "Death Wish 3" seemed like something from a comic book gang, and were hard to take serious."Death Wish 3" feels very campy, yet it was still refreshing that they broke the formula from the previous two movies.

This is the Empire Strikes Back of the Death Wish saga. A tour de force of violence starring one of the best action stars and mustaches of all time Charles Bronson. It's the most violent of the bunch, giving Charlie plenty of opportunity to do what he is best at: murder everyone that gets in his way. This is basically Commando but in New York which looks like an anarchistic wasteland where law has failed completely. As a huge fan of ridiculous 80s action this ranks near the top with the best of them and it is the best straight-up action movie that Charlie ever made (I am not including more dramatic movies like Once Upon a Time in the West). I think all the Death Wish movies should be watched in the sequence that they were released in, in order to get the full story and understand all the nuanced character development but if someone was only going to ever watch one then it has to be Death Wish 3.

Death Wish 3 is the year of Rambo one of my all time favorite classic action films from Charles Bronson and it is really underrated. I love good action movies and I love the third sequel way better than the original! Charles Bronson is the best in this movie! I watched this movie more as a kid than the first two movies. I love this movie to death I have it on Blu-ray and I have a VHS tape still. There are a lot of people who hate this movie like actor Alex Winter mentioned it is one of the worst movies made in the 80's from Cannon I disagree. Charles Bronson was disappointed with the film, I wasn't. This movie it is not for everyone it is more for action junkies like my self it is for fun and entertaining.To you, this is underrated misunderstood prototypical "good" action movie -- intense, violent gang war on a streets perfectly executed, original action, shown to the tune of a forgettable and occasionally insulting story.This movie was filmed the same year as Rambo: First Blood Part II and honestly Charles Bronson is Rambo in the urban jungle defending innocents on the street and fight evil in New York City. New York a city pushed to edge, people pushed to the limit and no one's got the guts to stop them. But there is one way, one man who want be pushed "Charles Bronson" and now he is in the middle of a war. In a world gone mad there is only one law is Charles Bronson Death wish 3! Bronson is back in New York bringing justice to the streets... Death Wish 3.1985 sequel, Paul Kersey, aka "The Vigilante", finds himself battling street punks in order to bring peace back to a once quiet New York neighborhood. Despite the New York setting, the film was actually made in England.It's blisteringly fast paced, brutally violent, the characters from the cops to the punks to the citizens do over-the-top, unrealistically illegal things that they would all be arrested for in real life but go unnoticed in the world of the film, and the whole movie has a go-for-broke feel.I love The character development Paul Kersey is a hero in this movie helps, defends old people and week people who can't defend them self's.Kersey buys an ice cream to a kid, he shots and fights off the rapists twice in this movie. He supports and stands by Rodriguez site when his wife is raped and murdered.There is a war on the streets with punks and gang territories. I wish they would make movies like this today I really do wish that.The acting decent from everyone but a lot of the fashion is hilariously 80's. There's nothing too disturbing in this movie so the tone is lighter than the first two films. It's also well paced and moves along quickly; no need for character development, just shoot the baddies! Charles Bronson does amazing job playing his character I really do miss him. Deborah Raffin did a great job and she was really cute and likable in this movie. Martin Balsam as Bennett was beautiful at acting. Gavan O'Herlihy is really perfectly bad guy I really get to hate him and you wish he will be die already. Ed Lauter as Richard Shriker is a good cop who becomes Charles Bronson's alley.The script and the plot is alright and there is plenty action we have a lot of guns and automatic weapons and they are been used well.Paul Kersey and his neighbor Rodriguez use a Browning M1919 machine gun to kill several gang members before it runs out of ammo. Paul looks with the machine gun like Rambo in the 80's the jungle streets. Both the Browning 1919 and MG42 belonged to Kersey's late Korean War buddy Charley, who apparently acquired the weapons during his stint in the Military.Paul Kersey's (Charles Bronson) uses Wildey Hunter with an 8" barrel in the movie (in real life, the gun was Bronson's personal pistol).I love the music score by Jimmy Page and I really love all the characters in here.10. years ago I wrote Murphy's Law is Charles Bronson best movie but my personal favorite Charles Bronson movie will always be Death Wish 3.Michael Winner did really good job directing his third and final Death Wish movie.Paul Kersey uses a rocket launcher M72 LAW and blows Fraker in to pieces and bringing justice to the streets once again.Death Wish 3 is a 1985 American action film starring Charles Bronson as vigilante killer Paul Kersey and is the third film in the Death Wish film series. It was written by Don Jakoby (under the pseudonym Michael Edmonds). This is the last Death Wish film to be directed by Michael Winner.R.I.P. Charles Bronson, Michael Winner, Deborah Raffin, Ed Lauter, Martin Balsam, Ron Hayes, John Gabriel, Mildred Shay, Menahem Golan rest in peace I really miss you all and I enjoy Death Wish 3 to death. 10/10 my favorite childhood classic action film I love it more than the original.

I saw at the movies with my friends when it came out...and I remember us thinking how ridiculous it is. It appears to have been written by a 12 year old, using some sort of formula, perhaps a 16 year old gave them.From the most ridiculous gangsters ever, to Charles Bronson inexplicably ordering rocket launchers through the mail, to the infamous gangster armed only with a plunger (??)...the movie appear to have been made with the assumption that there are enough people lobotomised, or otherwise impaired that would see this steaming pile of crap that it would make its money back, even though it is rubbish.
