Review of Death Wish II (1982) by Roger Ebert for Chicago Sun-Times — 31 Jan 2011
What's most shocking about Death Wish II is the lack of artistry and skill in the filmmaking. The movie is underwritten and desperately underplotted, so that its witless action scenes alternate with lobotomized dialogue passages.
The movie doesn't contain an ounce of life. It slinks onto the screen and squirms for a while, and is over.
