Bruce Willis Death Wish

Death Wish Trailer 2

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures has released the second movie trailer for Death Wish (2018). This trailer for the Death Wish remake broadens the scope of the film by giving the viewer the background of the protagonist and how he slowly begins integrating being a vigilante into his day job.

The viewer is also given new action and drama footage from the film, especially of the family that Dr. Paul Kersey (Bruce Willis) loses (in part and in whole).

After the release of John Wick and John Wick: Chapter 2, the action-revenge film bar has been raised significantly high. Besides name recognition, Eli Roth, and Bruce Willis, I don’t know if Death Wish has what it takes to meet or exceed that bar.

Death Wish‘s plot synopsis: based on the novel by Brian Garfield, “Dr. Paul Kersey (Bruce Willis) is a surgeon who only sees the aftermath of Chicago violence when it is rushed into his ER – until his wife (Elisabeth Shue) and college-age daughter (Camila Morrone) are viciously attacked in their suburban home. With the police overloaded with crimes, Paul, burning for revenge, hunts his family’s assailants to deliver justice. As the anonymous slayings of criminals grabs the media’s attention, the city wonders if this deadlyvigilante is a guardian angel or a grim reaper. Fury and fate collide in the intense, action-thriller Death Wish.

Paul Kersey becomes a divided person: A man who saves lives, and a man who takes them; a husband and father trying to take care of his family, and a shadowy figure fighting Chicago crime; a surgeon extracting bullets from suspects’ bodies, and the vigilante called “The Grim Reaper” who detectives are quickly closing in on…It’s a knife’s-edge portrayal that challenges our assumptions, and pushes our buttons.

By bringing the complex psychology of Brian Garfield’s book up-to-the-moment and injecting new thrills and a stark, unflinchinglook at the American psyche in 2017, Eli Roth and Death Wish brings audiences to the height of unforgettable suspense.”

Death Wish also stars Vincent D’Onofrio, Elisabeth Shue, Camila Morrone, Dean Norris, Jack Kesy, Beau Knapp, Kirby Bliss Blanton, Mike Epps, Len Cariou, Kimberly Elise, Ronnie Gene Blevins, Ian Matthews, Camila Morrone, Nathaly Thibault, and Christopher Tyson.
