Below average Charles Bronson vehicle

Warning: Spoilers
Below average Charles Bronson vehicle marred some really poor supporting acting particularly by female lead/love interest Brooklyn born Theresa Saldana. She seems to have no real purpose in the plot except to scold Charles which makes no sense considering her role in the film. And while she is a very poorly written character that makes little sense Theresa's performance certainly doesn't help things.

Charles looking great at 62 does the Death Wish thing throughout scenic Mexico and has some nice takes on the character particularly when he pretends to be a swinger to pick up a bodyguard or hides under the bed during an unexpected lesbian tryst.

The final is,also well done with a nice Freaks vibe to it. Overall an okay mix of some nice standout scenes and Mexican locations mixed with some really poor acting and unfortunate pacing.
