re: Death Wish - Rotten Tomatoes Score 17%

From what I remember, the original movie (only saw it once) was fun. Nothing brilliant but it wasn't meant to be. Standard action-adventure revenge flick. Somethingploitation. Seems like an A-lister would have to be really hard up to star in a remake of this without there being some really intriguing new wrinkle on the premise. Without that, it's just retread on a topic that has actually been done pretty well in the years since Bronson's classic. I'd ask if Roth has nude blackmail photos of Bruce Willis, but he sure does like flashing his penis just for fun, so that wouldn't work.
