Death Wish (2018)
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures presents director Eli Roth's reimagining of the 1974 revenge thriller Death Wish. Dr. Paul Kersey (Bruce Willis) is a surgeon who only sees the aftermath of his city's violence when it is rushed into his ER - until his wife (Elisabeth Shue) and college-age daughter (Camila Morrone) are viciously attacked in their suburban home. With the police overloaded with crimes, Paul, burning for revenge, hunts his family's assailants to deliver justice. As the anonymous slayings of criminals grabs the media's attention, the city wonders if this deadly avenger is a guardian angel or a grim reaper. Fury and fate collide in the intense action-thriller Death Wish. Paul Kersey becomes a divided person: a man who saves lives, and a man who takes them; a husband and father trying to take care of his family, and a shadowy figure fighting crime; a surgeon extracting bullets from suspects' bodies, and a man seeking justice that detectives are quickly closing in on.

The kind of midnight hour action film that engrosses with its steady pace, over the top violence and Willis' on key performance.

In that limited sense, "Death Wish" is a success, albeit one that action fans should wait to see on Netflix.

Shame on you, Bruce Willis.

'Death Wish' doesn't live up to the original.

"Death Wish" is a catechism for an audience terrified that their firepower and their influence are dwindling.
March 02, 2018
The film cranks up the audience with little jokes and references, and gets the audience cheering for the Grim Reaper before they even realize what they're cheering for -- and therein lies the problem.

Without funk, filth or sleaze, the saga amounts to nothing. [Full review in Spanish]

"Death Wish" breaks no new ground.

It's fair to ask what new things Eli Roth and Bruce Willis bring to Death Wish that the original, made in 1974 with Charles Bronson, didn't have. The answer is: not many.

This version lacks the occasional brilliant flashes of the first.

He's not remaking Death Wish. He's making what he thinks a person in 1974, sitting in a Forty-Deuce grindhouse theater, would have seen in their mind while watching it ...
