| | one of the best truthful movies done | bob 01/20/2013 | | |
| | This was the type of movie Mr. Broson was born to act. | movieinterpeter 12/28/2010 | | This is a FOUR STAR movie hands down. It begins to draw you in right from the,very, beginning and keeps you interested even during the parts that tend to drag. By the end of the movie you will find yourself routing for Bronson himself right up to the tragic, final, scene in the holding cell. |
