was nevertheless the number
one money raker last weekend.
Starring Charles Bronson as
vigilante Paul Kersey, the
movie was deemed by The
Pittsburgh Press as "1985's
poorest excuse for an action
picture." The plot follows the
worn revenge-seeking justice
formula: Kersey returns to New
York and is secretly assisted by
the chief of a bumbling police
force (Ed Lauter) to wipe out
the criminal efforts of a group
of new wave thugs. No matter
that Bronson's now 63 this
senior citizen superhero can

counterfeiters that killed his
secret agent partner. Directed
and co•written by William
Friedkin (The French
Connection), this fast•paced
action flick has an extended car
chase and lots of running
around that's all pretty
exciting. But because the pace
never slows enough to let us
get to know the characters, all
we get is another slick
Hollywood production. Shows
