ScoobyWell Great visuals, story delivers no surprises

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

LouAbbott My favorite "so bad it's good" film. If you like "good bad" movies (such as Brando's "The Island of Dr. Moreau,") you'll find this film worth renting. Virtually the entire film is ridiculous but quite entertaining. Plenty of good action as well, although the action scenes are for the most part silly, too. Others have written reviews pointing out how this movie is classic "good-bad." Their reviews are accurate.

mandresgasa Charles Bronson was well known for this work at the first movie of this saga. Two movies and eleven years later he has white card to come back to NYC and kill... everything I should say. The fact is that DW3 is basically tons of bullets, people falling down from the buildings, explosions, World World II weapons, neighbors being molested plus gangs rioting in a bizarre mode. To be honest I've laughed the 50% of the movie (A LOT), but this is genuine, I can take this film "seriously" as I can take to mention for example "The Godfather". Here we have a lot of fun, a briefly date of Charles with a woman and... rock and roll!. Grab a beer, watch it and enjoy it!. Put the body count and scream yeah!

Michael_Elliott Death Wish 3 (1985) *** (out of 4)Paul Kersey (Charles Bronson) is on a bus heading to visit a friend in New York City but once he gets there he finds the friend dead. It turns out that the neighborhood has been taken over by a gang of ruthless murdering thugs so to protect the building his friend lived in Kersey straps the guns back on and prepares for battle.DEATH WISH 3 has become one of the biggest cult action films of the decade and it's very easy to see why because you're not going to find a more over-the-top or insane picture. The final twenty or so minutes of this picture contains some of the wackiest and most outrageous action scenes that you'll ever witness so it's easy to watch them while drinking a beer and cheering along.What's always been so shocking to me about this series is how drastically different the films are from one another. The first film was a very dark and disturbing picture that asked political and social questions about killing. The second picture was a downright cheap exploitation movie. This third film seems like an out of control video game where Bronson is just given a wide range of weapons and we see him use them against some of the craziest group of villains that you'll ever see.DEATH WISH 3 is certainly a very weird movie but it's also a very entertaining one. Again, the main reason to watch this film is just to see Bronson back in action. I know he said in several interviews that he hated this picture but it really does look as if he's having fun. He's given some creative ways to kill people and there's even some humor thrown in from various traps that he sets up. Again, the real highlight comes in the final action sequence where an entire town gets blown up. This final sequence ranks as one of the wildest in cinema history.As I said, I think Bronson is in fine form here but we also get nice supporting performances from Martin Balsam, Ed Lauter, Deborah Raffin and Gavan O'Herlihy. Michael Winner does a good job at not taking anything too serious and he certainly manages to deliver a fast and loose picture. Again, it's rather shocking to see how different this film is compared to the previous two but DEATH WISH 3 deserves credit for trying something different.

Jamesfilmfan905 Death Wish 3 (1985) 92 minutes 18 - for graphic violence and a sexual scene Plot - Architect/vigilante Paul Kersey arrives back in New York City and is forcibly recruited by a crooked police detective to fight street crime caused by a large gang terrorizing the neighbourhood's. I think I can almost stop right there when discussing this film whichis a definitive improvement over the previous film death wish 2 which exploitative garbage at its worst this isn't a great movie either but there's a lot more depth to the story and generally serviceable performances buy the cast especially Charles Bronson who is suitably adequate as the title character Paul kersey and Ed lauther as a grumpy no-nonsense police officer who assists kersey in battling the street gang who lead by suitably terrifying maniac played by Gavan O'Herlihy as manny Faker and preposterous but fun choreographed action scenes especially the heart wrenching finale which left me on the very edge of my seat until the very end . so overall if you were put off by the rancid sequel that was death wish 2 give it a chance its a no brainier picture to be sure but its a fun and entertaining way to spend 90 minutes .
