Death Wish

Incassable pour les simples d'esprit dépourvus d'imagination. Un remake sans idée et sans personnalité. Même Willis n'était pas vraiment à sa place là-dedans. Vous ne croirez pas en ce médecin-chef qui apprend à tirer mieux que des gangsters professionnels en une soirée dans un garage. Des meurtres cruels, comme une catharsis de justice. Mais lorsque la justice est rendue à des méchants sans intérêt et non approfondis, le niveau de catharsis en souffre. (26/03/2020)

Paul Kersey's wife lost her life in an attack and his daughter ended up in hospital. Paul believes the police will catch the criminals soon, but for now they are on the run. So he decides to get a gun and deal with the criminals on his own. This new version of the thriller classic is an enjoyable action flick that relies on solid gunfights, blood and the ever charismatic Bruce Willis. However, as soon as they attempt psychology and serious drama, it stops working. Fortunately, they don't do that very often, it probably couldn't have turned out much better. (26/07/2018)

I'm satisfied and I'm glad that five years after Red 2 Bruce Willis made again a decent movie from my favorite genre, revenge. Story-wise it doesn't bring anything new to the table, but it's a ride from start to finish, decently acted, pleasantly gory, with one solid gore scene and an intense home invasion where the emotions soar to 160 degrees. I had a great time. Eli Roth, Bruce Willis and old-school revenge, I like this triple combo. 80%. (23/05/2018)

A meaningless remake without any significant directorial signature or any attempt to make the viewer's experience more interesting. A revenge motif, handled in the classic way with all the clichés. There's action and violence here and there, which is primordially expressive, as Roth always does, and Bruce Willis, who plays a stodgy, lifeless doctor and is unfortunately quite good at it. I wanted to say that it’s good to watch once, but actually not, better ignore it. Standard work for a revenge movie. (01/06/2018)
