They already aired it once tonight from 8-10pm. This is the second showing of Death Wish.

Good film, though a little unrealistic.

Look for Jeff Goldblum in his first film appearance as one of the thugs.

nice, pleasant, wholesome entertainment. uplifting; not in the least emotionally charged.

Happened to see a few minutes of it at the local bodega while getting a couple of slices of pizza.

Man, we've all aged.

Stallone is going to do a remake.

I love all the Death Wish movies. I think Death Wish III is the weakest but Marina Sirtis has a small part in it.

I also like the Death Wish movie with with Vincent Price and the airship. That might be the best one.

Rented it not long ago. Was surprised by how is cut out for televised showings. And not just graphic material but some plot significant development featuring his cowboy client (played I think by the same actor who played "Angel" in the Rockford Files.).

It’s a very good flick. A little sparse on production values but delivers a strong theme and powerful message. Love the part at the end where the detective makes it clear that if he had too, he would kill Dr. Kersey himself to get him off the streets.

I don’t like Bronson. He’s such a strong guy.....that when his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer, he took off for several months. Oh. He did come back. What a guy.
