Death Wish
Michael Winner
1974
A lovely tale of a privileged white man's descent into madness as he seeks to solve his problems through vigilante justice, completely ignoring the role of systemic issues and choosing instead to take the law into his own hands with a gun in tow - how inspiring!

Now some haikus and midjourney art…
Revenge on culture
Vulnerable on purpose
Politics sideshow
Extract my vengeance
On muggers and wannabes
No cheesy line here
A gun that inspires
Show that anyone can fight back
Leave the town by noon
The senseless violence
Where draws one the line, right here
Punks eat the pavement
Nothing left to lose
Wife and daughter, death and shame
Not stand aggression
To feel empowered
To fight that feeble feeling
To extract a fine
Nine Points of View
The Optimist
Another tragic tale turned action movie franchise.
The Mystic
You can never go backwards in time to how things used to be.
The Hyperbolist
Greatest respect for the power of pistol ever!
The Dualist
Good movie, the darkness of coping with a loved one’s tragedy.
The Trickster
Charles Bronson in the reverse Joker starting Joaquin Phoenix.
The Skeptic
Why would you shoot the guy with a knife first?
The Rationalist
Would police really spend that much time investigating the death of muggers in a city overrun with crime?
The Empath
That home invasion scene was rough. Thanks Jeff Goldblum.
The Overthinker
A not so subtle critique of the “bleeding heart liberal” approach to crime with slight fetishization of gun culture.
