Mr. Majestyk (1974)
6/10
1970s Fun

Watch this film to be entertained. Don't view it expecting something the quality/caliber of "Death Wish" or "Dirty Harry". The story is simple, the acting good and the action average. Charles Bronson did well in most any role he took on. Mr. Majestyk is no exception. I can think of only a few other "average man" actors who could have made this film work. The role of a "melon farmer" seems too tame for many of the action stars of the day. It was a very good fit for Charles Bronson. He is not the only one delivering a fine acting job. The "muscled" head-thug did a good job too. He greets the scrawny little blonde guy with "Who is this ass-hole?". The movie is simple, entertaining and just the right length. They didn't try to make a "melon farmer" more than he should be.
