I saw Death Wish with Charles Bronson years ago.

The remake can’t compete with the original.

RE:”I saw Death Wish with Charles Bronson years ago.

My dad took me to see the original in the movies.

Given that they cast Bruce Willis I figured he would do a great job and he did.

They reworked the screenplay.

It made sense to be in NYC in the 1970s but it make more sense to be in Chicago now.

Also he tracks down the criminals who killed his wife and sent his daughter into a coma and is pretty ruthless in getting revenge and information from them.

Agreed. BTW, up until recently the head of the agency that issued Florida CCW was named Charles Bronson. His signature was on the card.
