Movie Reviews of Mr Majestyk
Movie Review: I just Want to Get my Melons in.
Summary: 5 Stars
Another of Charles Bronson's excellent movies. Vince Majestyk(Bronson) is a vietnam veteran how lives on his farm and raises watermelon. Mobster Frank Renda(Al Lettieri) does everything he can think of to get Vince because Vince refuses to 'let' the local mob boss (Bobby Kopas played by the jerk you love to hate Paul Koslo) hire and place workers in Majestyk's fields. Majestyk returns from town where he hired a crew to pick melons, to find the local mobster there with workers already in the field picking. This of course makes for an interesting setup because one, Majestyk has hired a crew, and two, he doesn't want to 'pay' the mobsters at all. He just wants to get his melons in in time to ship. Several fun events follow from machine gun and shotgun shooting of melons sitting in the shed ready to be loaded to take to market to various run ins and chase scenes. Majestyk is a tough but 'good/caring' man. Nancy Chavez(Linda Cristal) is ultimately Majestyk's love interest, but the 'relationship' is really only a few brief asides and not really a big piece of the plot. Mr. Majestyk, Breakout, and Bordeline are the only movies Bronson did that really dealt with Mexico/Chicano characters.
Mr. Majestyk is another of several Bronson movies that are fun to watch again and again as simple entertaiment. (The Mechanic, Chato's Land, Dirty Dozen, Breakout, Breakheart Pass and White Buffalo). Bronson reached pinnacle of acclaim with the Death Wish series. Some of the Death Wish movies are quite good, but like Rocky and Rambo, the plot/story lines became redundant after too many 'sequels'. Sad Charlie(as he preferred to be called) Bronson died in 2003. Another good tough guy gone.
