Charles Bronson is the alias of an incredibly violent and angry man. Why he is this way, nobody knows, least of which himself. The film makers have no idea either, but it really does not matter. The greatness of the movie is watching the amazing performance given by the lead actor. He is incredibly engaging and incredibly disturbing. He can be engaging, but more often than not, he is incredibly angry and very prone to violence. Correction, he is pure violence, it is the thing he most desires. Of course. his actions only lead to his continuous stay in prison, but that is fine with him, he loves it there. Very surreal, very strange, very hypnotic. Lots of great music, powerful performances, ultra-violent, great film!
