It's great. You never hear of it either.....

.....when Bronson died a year and a half or so ago, no one seemed to bother mentioning this in his obits. Sure you heard about Death Wish or the Dirty Dozen or whatever, but this one--just gets filed under the 'routine Bronson vehicle' tag ala 'Breakout'. Which is a shame.Rarely was he this good in anything--focused, believable, solid. You can half-ways even buy his beating Robert Tessier in a fight despite Tessier's obvious looming over Bronson by half a foot or so.Scenery, setting, casting-Coburn, Strother, etc-all top notch. I also am always happy to see Tessier show up, be it in this or the Longest Yard or whatever, he was a pretty effective villain.Check this out if you like Bronson or fight flix. Very well done.***1/2 outta ****
