Product description

The vigilante is back—with a vengeance! Superstar Charles Bronson (Death Wish 1-3) blows the drug underworld wide open in a blazing quest for justice and revenge in Death Wish 4: The Crackdown. Haunted by his violent past, Paul Kersey (Bronson) struggles to forget the brutal deaths of his loved ones—and his obsessive one-man battle to avenge their murders. But when a dose of toxic “crack” kills the young daughter of his new girlfriend (Kay Lenz, Breezy, House), Kersey again becomes the infamous urban vigilante. Vowing to wipe out the entire cocaine network of L.A., he skillfully lures two vicious, competing drug empires into a bloody turf war. But there’s a sinister force behind the scenes (John P. Ryan, Runaway Train) with his own diabolical plans for Kersey in this powerhouse action-thriller, which marks the seventh team-up between Bronson and legendary director J. Lee Thompson (The White Buffalo, Murphy’s Law).

I am happy to report that through direct purchase from 鶹.ca I was able to purchase "Death Wish 2" through "Death Wish 5" all at a reasonable price. Theyu were ordered, and all 4 arrived in excellent condition. I found "Death Wish" through another avenue of purchase, and it too arrived in excellent condition.

    Reviewed in Canada on February 23, 2003
    i can't understand why the reviewers of Bronson films think it necessary to trash the people who actually like to watch Bronson. you know, i love his movies because they say a lot of things i wish i could do in real life. everyone wants to get rid of people they hate and since killing is illegal and i have a rational mind, i can watch Bronson films and get out my anger at somebody through his mass killings of street scum and corrupt public officials. i don't see the harm in the genre of films Charles chose to link himself with. Death Wish and all it's sequels are designed strictly for that kind of audience that gets thrilled and excited watching someone do things that can't be done in real life without suffering the consequences. Charles' character never goes to prison or is never seriosuly pursued by the police...BECAUSE Bronson is doing what the POLICE wish they could do to crooks and the PUBLIC loves what Bronson's character is doing. that's the message that his mid '70s to mid '80s movies set. i say, what's the harm in an actor giving HIS public what they want and all you have to do is look at the box-office, not the critics. 90% of his so-called "bad" movies, the ones that critics scathe and tear apart, were huge money makers and that's the bottom line. to say Charles Bronson's career wasn't popular and appealing is a lie...he's the "common man"'s hero but my no means does that make his fans vigilantes...we just get excited watching bad guys get what they deserve and Charles vents our frustrations for us in his movies. it's as simple as that. Death Wish 4 is based on a murder and the fact that red tape and procedures get in the way of solving cases. vigilante films, like the wonderful Death Wish series, are limited in originality due to the very fact that it's a vigilante film. you can't get too original with that premise, can you? so that's why we don't mind that the series is all the same sort of plot, we get a kick out of the many ways Bronson shoots the bad guy and the different sort of guns he might use.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Make a sandwich and check your wine bottles.
    Reviewed in Canada on February 27, 2004
    Could Paul Kersey be the most unlucky character in movie history? Every Death wish film that premiered makes it harder to contradict that claim, and this movie is no exception.
    Death Wish 4 is a movie in which the protagonist, who turned vigilante after his daughter was raped and his wife killed in Death Wish, is getting close to the routine of a normal life at the start of this film. He has a steady girlfriend whose daughter wants to be an architect, her works are not great but, "pretty d*mn good." But it seems it wasn't meant to be, the poor girl was given some very lethal cocaine and had an overdose. Soon after, Kersey is hired by a man who supposedly had a similar experience with his daughter and wanted Paul's, "services," in taking out successful drug dealers.
    This movie manages to be very different from the original Death Wish formula, Kersey is far from the slums, and rather than defending himself by capping muggers he's actually seeking out drug lords, and then capping them. Somehow over time, he has become a professional hitman. Think of the movie as DW2 in a more sophisticated environment and with drug dealers instead of rapists.
    Those who cringed at the rape scenes in previous films can feel a bit more relaxed, there are no completed rapes in this movie. I say no completed rapes because the movie opens with a dream sequence of a near rape, but rest assured Bronson saved the damsel in distress.
    The movie also features some memorable lines for Bronson/DW fans, like when a rich drug dealer finds Kersey in his kitchen and demands to know what he is doing there. Kersey responds in a way that sounds almost sincere, "I was making a sandwich." I won't reveal any more details for fear of ruining the story for you but I will say that you might think twice about telling someone to drop dead.
    I give Death Wish 4 four stars (no pun intended). The one star is deducted for simply being too short.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Bronson: The answer to the war on drugs
    Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2009
    Verified Purchase
    After the World War 4 that was Death Wish 3, one can only imagine what would be on tap for Death Wish 4. One might be pondering if Death Wish 3 was World War 4, what happened to World War 3? Death Wish 3 was so violent that it was World War 3 and 4.

    As for "Death Wish 4: The Crackdown" this movie finds Paul Kersey (Bronson) in Los Angeles, the prior film took place in New York. Paul is now involved with his girlfriend, a news reporter, and appears to be living a good life. This moment doesn't last too long when his girlfriend's daughter Erica dies of a crack-cocaine overdose.

    Now this being a Death Wish movie and this movie featuring Charles Bronson, you can only imagine where things go from here. Kersey/Bronson finds the drug pusher who gave Erica the smack and blows him away. Then a day later a morning father who lost his daughter to drug use approaches Kersey/Bronson about wiping out all the drug dealers/pushers in L.A. After some short consideration, Kersey/Bronson is back to his old tricks fighting the scum of the world.

    I found Death Wish 4 to be vintage Bronson and doesn't fail providing plenty of action and one liners. There is a scene where Kersey/Bronson is caught breaking and entering in a drug lord's home (who also happens to be a baritone, go figure). When the drug lord asks why Kersey/Bronson is there he replies "I was making a sandwich". I love this stuff!!

    This movie also provided some twits that were sort of surprising for a Death Wish flick. Another thing I like about this "low" budget movie is that the special effects look better than many movies made today. Mainly because cars are really flipped over, buildings are really blown up; you won't see any CGI here!!! As for the acting, at a core level it isn't really any worse or better than what is offered in modern movies.

    As always Bronson delivers an amazing performance as Paul Kersey, the angel of death. The only feature on the DVD is the trailer/preview for DW4. It would be nice if the DVD had a little more meat on it, but at least this movie has been put on DVD. So if you ever walk into your house and see Bronson making a sandwich let's just hope it isn't a knuckle.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Charles Bronson - Weil selbst Chuck Norris etwas zu fürchten braucht!
    Reviewed in Germany on March 11, 2018

    Wer eine reine Rezension zur Qualtät des Mediabooks selbst haben möchte, lese bitte die der anderen.
    Mir geht es um Anmerkungen zu Bronsons Cannon-Phase, die womöglich kaufentscheidend sein könnten.

    Es wird von sogenannten Filmexperten, -kennern und - kritikern immer wieder gerne geschrieben, dass die neun Filme, welche Charles Bronson in seiner Zeit bei Cannon produzierte, das Ende seiner Schauspielkarriere besiegelt hätten:

    1981: Der Mann ohne Gnade (Death Wish II)
    1982: Ein Mann wie Dynamit (10 to Midnight)
    1985: Death Wish III – Der Rächer von New York (Death Wish 3)
    1986: Murphys Gesetz (Murphy’s Law)
    1987: Der Mordanschlag (Assassination)
    1987: Das Weiße im Auge (Death Wish 4: The Crackdown)
    1988: Das Gesetz ist der Tod (Messenger of Death)
    1989: Kinjite – Tödliches Tabu (Kinjite – Forbidden Subjects)
    1994: Death Wish V – Antlitz des Todes (Death Wish V – The Face of Death)

    (Anmerkung: Der Liquidator (The Evil That Men Do) von 1984 wird immer gerne zu den Cannonfilmen gezählt, hätte von der ganzen Machart her auch hervorragend in die Cannonreihe gepasst war aber tatsächlich eine Produktion, welche Bronson mit seiner eigenen, kurzlebigen (aufgrund familiärer Probleme) Filmfirma produzierte)

    Zudem gelten sie qualitativ als übelste Trah-Machwerke von unterirdischer Qualität – wie beinahe alles, was Cannon jemals produziert habe. Beides ist schlichtweg falsch!
    Zum einen erfuhr der alternde Charles Bronson durch den Vertrag mit Cannon das dringend benötigte Comeback, denn seine großen Welterfolge, wie Ensemblefilme

    1960: Die glorreichen Sieben (The Magnificent Seven)
    1963: Gesprengte Ketten (The Great Escape)
    1967: Das dreckige Dutzend (The Dirty Dozen)
    1968: Spiel mir das Lied vom Tod (C’era una volta il West)

    oder seine eigenen Klassiker wie

    1968: Du kannst anfangen zu beten / Bei Bullen „singen“ Freunde nicht (Adieu l’ami)
    1970: Brutale Stadt (Città violenta)
    1970: Kalter Schweiß (De la part des copains)
    1971: Chatos Land (Chato’s Land)
    1972: Kalter Hauch (The Mechanic)
    1973: Ein Mann geht über Leichen (The Stone Killer)
    1974: Das Gesetz bin ich (Mr. Majestyk)
    1974: Ein Mann sieht rot (Death Wish)
    1975: Der Tag der Abrechnung (St. Ives)
    1977: Telefon (Telefon)
    1979: Ein Mann räumt auf (Love and Bullets)
    1980: Der Grenzwolf (Borderline)

    lagen lange zurück und seine Karriere war mittlerweile an einem Punkt angekommen, an dem sie stagnierte, und der ehemals beliebteste männliche Filmstar der Welt (zusammen mit Sean Connery) sich sowohl der Situation einer im Umbruch befindlichen Filmwirtschaft, wie auch jüngeren, neuartigen Schauspielern gegenübersah, die jemandem wie ihm, der zum „alten Hollywood“ zählte, zunehmend den Rang abliefen, weil sie einfach angesagter waren. Also hatte Bronson die Wahl sich karrieremäßig aufs Abstellgleis zu begeben, oder aber zu versuchen mit „Death Wish 2 . Der Mann ohne Gnade“ am wohl berühmtesten Film seiner langen Laufbahn,nämlich „Ein Mann sieht rot“ anzuknüpfen und auf erneuten Erfolg zu hoffen. Eine Wahl, die für ihn selbst wohl keine war, angesichts von einer Familie mit sieben Kindern, die er zu versorgen hatte und einer krebskranken Frau, deren Behandlungskosten auch kein Pappenstiel waren.
    Das Comeback gelang. Trotz vernichtender Kritikermeinugen liebte das Publikum Bronson in seiner Paraderolle als eiskalter Rächer und knallharter Macho. Getreu seinem Motto „Kritiker bezahlen keinen Eintritt“ gab er dem Publikum, was es wollte und legte mit den weiteren Cannonfilmen nach, die – rückblickend aus heutiger Sicht – zu den berühmtesten (und berüchtigsten) und gleichzeitig kultigsten Werken gehören, welche der schweigsame Mime überhaupt gemacht hat und die nach der jeweiligen Kinoauswertung ihm zum damaligen Videothekensuperstar avancieren ließen. Heutzutage sind seine Filme (seit Mitte der 70er) oftmals Perlen des Actionkinos, Klassiker, welche das moderne Actionkino ( von Stallone und Schwarzenegger, von Bruce Willis bis Jason Statham) bis heute nachhaltig geprägt haben – und sogar von Kultregisseuren wie Quentin Tarantino verehrt werden.
    Charles Bronson begründete – zusammen mit Clint Eastwood – nicht nur ein ganzes Filmgenre, er war der erste waschechte Actionstar der Filmgeschichte überhaupt und diente Chuck Norris seinerzeit als Vorbild.
    Und die (inhaltlich und gewaltmäßig) berüchtigten, politisch völlig unkorrekten Cannon-Filme verfestigten diesen Ruf enorm.
    Natürlich tragen sie immens daran Schuld, dass er quasi bis zum Ende seiner beruflichen Laufbahn auf die Rolle des Rächertypen festgelegt war. Doch man darf nicht vergessen, dass er privat sehr viele Sorgen (Tod eines Stiefsohnes, Krankheit und Tod seiner geliebten Frau Jill Ireland) hatte und vermutlich gar nicht mehr den Nerv und die Muße hatte, sich in anspruchsvollere Charakterrollen reinzuknien. Und zur Ablenkung dienten ihm diese Filme, bei denen er wiederholt seine Familie miteinband, sehr wohl.
    Dennoch wäre es fatal zu behaupten, er sei kein guter Schauspieler gewesen, nur durchschnittlich oder gar drittklassig, weil er – angeblich – nur einen Typ verkörpern konnte.
    Das dem nicht so war, zeigte er in Filmen, die sein vielseitiges Talent besser zur Geltung brachten, wie: Die glorreichen Sieben, Gesprengte Ketten, Der aus dem Regen kam, Der Mörder hinter der Tür, Lolita und der Amerikaner, Local 323, Der Seewolf, Und den Weihnachtsmann gibt’s doch, Indian Runner, Caboblanco, Kid Galahad, Die Alles begehren, das Raubtier, Der einsame Adler, Yukon, Zwischen 12 und 3, ...
    Es ist natürlich richtig, dass Bronson im Gegensatz zu Eastwood oder Connery nur sehr wenig Ambitionen zeigte sich mit zunehmenden Alter weiterzuentwickeln, oder seine Rollen selbstironischer anzulegen. Aber ganz ehrlich – das erwartete erstens niemand von ihm und wollte auch zweitens seinerzeit niemand sehen.
    Doch ganz egal, wie man heute zu Bronson steht, eines war er zweifelsohne:
    Ein echter, unverwechselbarer Typ, charismatisch und einprägsam – eine Schauspielerpersönlichkeit dergleichen man heutzutage auf weiter Flur keine mehr findet.
    Heute eine Legende als wohl härtester (zweifellos) und coolster (m.E. war Eastwood cooler) Badass der Filmgeschichte, der selbst einen Chuck Norris zu einem Anfänger degradiert. Selbst neben seiner Rächerrolle konnte er soviele Kassenschlager/Blockbuster vorweisen, wie nur wenige vor oder nach ihm im Filmgeschäft. Und er blieb sich selber immer treu.
    Umso mehr freut es mich, dass gerade seine Filme in den vergangenen Jahren immer öfter auf Bluray oder Mediabooks herauskommen, uncut und in bestmöglicher Bildqualität zum wiederentdecken und kennenlernen. So kann ich alle bislang erschienenen Mediabooks nur wärmstens weiterempfehlen: Kalter Hauch, Das Gesetz bin ich, Death Wish 1-5, Der Liquidator, Murphys Gesetz.

    „Jack Murphy verarscht man nicht!“

    Bronson auch nicht.
