CGiii Comment

There's no talking for 16 minutes...

Seemingly, Bronson refused to do this if his character was gay...

There is no doubting the gay over and undertones - littered throughout this little yarn about assassins - the joke is on you Charlie.

25 people are killed and the 70s never looked so 70s - so dated.
