Movie Reviews of Mr Majestyk
Movie Review: Don't mess with Bronson's melons!
Summary: 4 Stars
They never learn. Now they want to screw around with Bronson's melon crop! All Bronson wants to do is get his melons in, but every one and every thing seems to be trying to stop him. His biggest obstacle being a mafia hitman who wants Bronson dead, dead, DEAD! Bronson doesn't so much as frown when his workers are kicked off his land, and his buddy's legs are broken, but watch his pained expression and clenched fist when he sees his melons shot to ribbons! Then all hell breaks loose! This is one of Bronson's best quality films. His perfromance is actually perfect for the character he plays. A definite for your Manly Movie Night.Movie Review: Classic
Summary: 4 Stars
It's Charles Bronson being Charles Bronsony -- the story/acting is sometimes corny, but in the end, if you even have an inkling to see this movie, then you'll probably get a kick out of it.
Great ending.
Movie Review: Mr Majestyk
Summary: 4 Stars
Love Bronson's laid back style and tolerance against injustice, but will only take so much before letting rip. And when he does "lose it" you had better not be on the receiving end. Excellent Classic movie.Movie Review: satisfied
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this movie as a gift, so haven't viewed it, but it arrived in a timely fashion, so I was pleased.Movie Review: Bronson, an action-violence king!
Summary: 3 Stars
Like Clint Eastwood, Bronson never had real success until he went to Europe in 1968... Then he hit, and hit big... In one year he becomes a star, and an action-violence king...
Bronson has a strong Slavic face, invisible slit eyes, a gently menacing smile-something like Jack Palance, but more humane...
Social themes are not the usual stuff of Bronson films, but in 'Mr. Majestyk,' he looks tough, yet manages to convey a sympathetic streak in the character he portrays...
He stars as a cool fighting loner who finds his efforts far to be carried out, and solves his problems with muscle and firearms - this time a formidable shotgun..
Vince Majestyk, a Colorado melon grower who haven't clipped his melons yet, gets trouble from a local racist labor racketeer Paul Koslo (Bobby Kopas) who attempts to force him to do business with him, using his crew rather than the hand-picked Chicano migrants he employed...
Majestyk straight advise to the unscrupulous punk is clear: Not to interfere... In this moment, Richard Fleisher's film looks as an action picture about labor and race troubles.... But the script twists it on throwing our genuine working man in prison on false charges...
Accidentally in the same jail is gangster Frank Renda (Al Lettieri).
When Renda's mafia associates stage a breakout for their boss, Majestyk seizes Frank and frustrates their carefully-schemed plan... He then offers to exchange the mafia thug for his own freedom... However, his own plan is ruined when Frank escapes from him, promising bloody revenge...
Al Lettieri, the ruthless hoodlum, is probably best known as Solozzo in "The Godfather," and as a loan shark in 'Rocky.'
Dragging along with Bronson, while he battles the mafia and cops, is Linda Cristal (Nancy Chavez), the beautiful Labor Organizer who provides all the necessary help to our hero... Nancy is quite clear with her Latin accent: 'If you want to go to bed with me, why don't you say so?'
If you like to watch the machine-gun slaughter of hundreds of defenseless watermelons, this is the movie to watch...
