30 years back a movie named DEATH WISH starred Charles Bronson, this one is the remake version of that movie... that's all. Do not waste 10 bucks seeing this in theater, rent Death Wish and save yourself some mony | | | | Reply | | |

A must see movie! As someone who is anti death penalty and pro gun control I was surprised, and even uncomfortable, finding myself (along with others) applauding at the end of this marvelous movie.

I am a great fan of Judie Foster still this film was not up to that point as we use to see Judi Foster. This is film is not among those films to be researched like thesis material. We expect more from the actress like Judie Foster | | | Shane Nagano replies @ Tuesday - September 18,2007
