Viewing Notes

For my mini Bronson project inspired by GGTMC. Been far too long since I’ve seen this so it was a no-brainer for this project (also need to revisit DW2). Still a solid film that has as much impact now as it did then. My first viewing of this was in a Jr High justice class. Think about that for a second.

I love Kersey’s emotions and reactions as he transforms throughout this film. Good stuff and great Winner flick.
