Default Review: Bruce Willis’ remake of 'Death Wish' is DOA

Review: Bruce Willis’ remake of 'Death Wish' is DOA

03-07-2018 12:28 PM

Sometimes Bruce Willis and over-the-top screen violence are perverse, transgressive fun. Think of him running around on his bloody, glass-cut feet and mowing down a platoon of cocky Euro-baddies in “Die Hard.” Or killing John Travolta on the john in “Pulp Fiction.” And later, having escaped imprisonment in a creepy pawnshop, quietly weighing the lethal capacity of every weapon in stock before deciding to kill his kidnappers with a samurai sword. Those scenes were beautifully underplayed by Willis, giving the screen slaughter a comic edge.Clearly they were aiming for something similar in the remake of the 1974 Charles Bronson thriller “Death Wish.”
