Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Paul Magne Haakonsen After three swings and a miss, then surely I was more than ready to give up on the "Death Wish" franchise. But I had all five movies readily available, so I decided to stick with them and watch them.It turns out that "Death Wish 4: The Crackdown" had a much better story than the previous 3. The reason for this was because the storyline dealt with the drug cartels, so it added a whole different layer and aspect to the movie.It was rather fun to see a young Danny Trejo in this movie. The doll of Trejo, during the explosion scene, was just hilariously bad.The scene where Paul Kersey (played by Charles Bronson) crashed the police car, the ramp behind the other car was so painfully visible that it was ridiculous. And I actually went back to watch that scene three times just for the sheer laughs of how bad it was.Of course Paul Kersey lost more people that he loved and cared about in this movie. Seems like he is being followed by some curse that claims everyone he becomes close to."Death Wish 4: The Crackdown" was actually the best of the four movies in the franchise thus far.

sol- Once again, Charles Bronson plays architect-turned-vigilante Paul Kersey in this fourth film in the 'Death Wish' franchise. Often cited as the weakest entry in the series, 'Death Wish 4' suffers from leaden dialogue (especially when Kersey is consoling his grief-stricken girlfriend) and limited character progression. On the plus side though, the film has a fresh and original plot with a nod towards 'Yojimbo' as Kersey is hired play off rival drug cartels against one another, leading each to believing that the other is trying to sabotage their business. Kersey has some pretty nifty weapons this time too, including an incendiary device in a wine bottle, and with the experienced J. Lee Thompson at the helm, it is a slick-looking production. The opening scene is especially remarkable with clever use of fish-eye lensing and deliberately edited cutaways (in which hoodlums appear and disappear) drumming up incredible tension. There is also well edited sequence later on in which Kersey's gun-fighting gets redirected to a local ice rink, and the open ending is pitch perfect. The plot is arguably a bit too intricate for its own good with a twist in the final third that does not necessarily add a lot to the film, though it does tie in well with the idea of Kersey being used as a pawn to dirty work that could not otherwise be done (an angle sort of explored in 'Death Wish 3' with Ed Lauter's corrupt cop). This might well be a lot different to the thought-provoking original 1974 movie, but as far as sequels go, 'Death Wish 4' is very decent of its type.

trashgang Paul Kersey (Bronson) is back to wipe out an entire drug cartel, to be honest, two. He's got a new girlfriend with a daughter but once the daughter overdosed it's time to hunt. Better than part 3 but this time it do moves slowly and clocking in over 90 minutes it's a bit to long. Storywise it's only the name Kersey that makes references toward the 1974 original, this is more a typical Cannon (the distributors) action movie then a revenge flick. On part of the effects, this maybe is the best of the franchise. And for the freaks, Danny Trejo is to spot in the Italian restaurant.Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 2,5/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5

Rainey Dawn This Bronson film is not a crime-thriller like the first two films. This 4th film is more like Death Wish III - it's all action and not much of a story. Like the 3rd film in the series, this 4th film has Paul Kersey (Bronson) kicking the bad-guy's. The movie is good if you want a movie that is mainly all action - gun shooting and things being blown up - then Death Wish 4 is a good choice to watch. Film bonus: You will get to watch an 80's arcade room shot up in this film.I personally am more into the first two films which are good crime-thrillers and great vigilante stories. Starting from Death Wish III forward - the film saga turns into simply shoot-them-up action without the great stories like the first two flicks in the series.5/10
