My wife said it best when she said, "They dont't make 'em like that anymore."
She is absolutely right! It is pretty much impossible to find an action flick starring a seventysomething tough guy these days.
"Murphy's Law" stars Charles Bronson as Jack Murphy, a burnt out old cop. He wants people to abide by one rule..."Don't fuck with Jack Murphy!" Unfortunately, several people break that rule...including psycho Joan, a recently released con out for revenge (Carrie Snodgrass).
Murphy's framed for murder and winds up handcuffed to a juvenile delinquent (Kathleen Wilhoite) who calls him every name in the book ( "snot breath," "public hair"). Of course, Bronson goes on a rampage, stealing a helicopter, kicking ass and ultimately coming face to face with nutso Joan.
This isn't Bronson's best, but he makes its watchable. Lots of gunfire, some gratuitous nudity and a profane-laden script. How can it not rule???
