| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Jay ScottApart from Bronson, this is a complete waste. |
| The New York TimesRichard F. ShepardThis movie indicates that Charles Bronson just doesn't care any more, and is just going through the motions for the money. I admired his strong, simple talent once. What is he doing in a garbage disposal like this? |
| User ReviewBroyaxLe titre peut induire en erreur, car il ne s’agit pas d’une resucée du « Justicier dans la ville » typique au cours duquel Bronson va passer un coup de karcher (à balles) la nuit (on l’appelle Monsieur Propre…). Cela dit, c’est tout aussi mauvais, voire pire, bien pire encore puisqu’ici, Bronson devenu un papy (eh oui, déjà) se borne à enquêter mollement sur des meurtres en série, en compagnie d’un jeune cave. On dirait un épisode poussif d’un Columbo mais sans Columbo (ni sa femme, si son chien), un vague jeu du chat et de la souris entre le psychopathe et les flics. En tout cas, avec ce navet particulièrement foireux, on est assuré de roupiller bien avant minuit et même la fin, la toute fin tombe comme un cheveu sur la soupe (Papy Bronson se rappelant tout-à-coup qu’il faudrait se remettre au boulot et nettoyer !). |
