The film covers the story of Paul Kersey who works in the field of architecture. During this period, the new Kersey profession appears to be a professional one and is still trying to empty the criminals, rapists, and thieves from the neighborhoods when it is forcibly recruited by the police detective.
The weakest and least credible entry in the a series that's more enjoyable than most would admit.

There is not a moment of credibility in the movie and the ending is sheer chaos, and anticlimactic at that. Mr. Winner runs out of imagination before Mr. Bronson runs out of ammunition.

The action, direction and special effects are all better than the last time around, which isn't saying much.
