| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Death Wish 3 |
|---|
Paul Kersey (Charles Bronson) goes to New York to visit his friend. His friend is killed by a no-good rotten gang. Charles Bronson spends the rest of the movie killing that no-good rotten gang. Bliss ensues for the viewer.

Charles Bronson returns to New York (looking like London) to once again clean the scum off a residential estate under siege, the film lacks almost all character development and plot structure in order to show us how Charles Bronson can outrun, beatup, kill, and fall in love with people thirty years younger than he. Apart from Bronson, every other character is either a helpless weakling or cannon fodder, Its non-stop action and relentless cheese make Death Wish 3 an unmissable film that can be watched over and over.
See it, then see it again!! I loved it!!

Charles Bronson is back and this time it's war. In this, the third installment of the Death Wish Series, all gloves are off and all brains are gone from this series.
There's kickass adventure in this installment when vigilante Bronson is blackmailed by a corrupt police official into returning to the streets to deliver justice to street thugs who are terrorizing a New York neighborhood.
What the movie lacks in brains and plot, it makes up for in action and fun. One Hell of a stupid, exciting ride!
--Ken Carper, Resident Scholar
