Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Winner's recourse to caricature when dealing with police and thugs, and his virtually overt sympathies with the confused, violent Bronson, make for uncritical, simplistic viewing.

rotten:
It's a despicable movie, one that raises complex questions in order to offer bigoted, frivolous, oversimplified answers.
– Vincent Canby,

fresh:
The movie has an eerie kind of fascination, even though its message is scary.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,

rotten:
Poisonous incitement to do-it-yourself law enforcement is the vulgar exploitation hook on which Death Wish is awkwardly hung.
