In the trailer (and movie poster), a quote can be seen where a reviewer called the film, &#8220;A Clockwork Orange for the 21st century.&#8221; That quote is really spot-on. There is a big Clockwork Orange influence in this film. While Michael Peterson narrates the entire film, the film jumps between what actually happened and Peterson performing in front of an audience in a rather large theater. The make-up, the setting, and Hardy&#8217;s performance are all very Clockwork Orange-esquire. Another film that came to mind was Snatch. The action sequences and a lot of the humor had a similar vibe to Guy Ritchie&#8217;s film. Bronson is very much its own film, but shares the same beloved qualities of the films mentioned.<\/p>\n<p>Bronson is what it is because of Tom Hardy&#8217;s performance. He&#8217;s guiding you through his life, his dreams, and his goals while you&#8217;re with him the duration of the film, so it&#8217;s only logical that he steals the show since he gets the most screen time. The fact that he doesn&#8217;t waste any of it is something to be proud of though. He makes what would be a rather dismal story entertaining, exciting, and worth sitting through. Hardy&#8217;s performance is the highlight of the film. There&#8217;s really no questioning that.<\/p>\n<p>Bronson was really a sleeper hit since its premise didn&#8217;t interest me at all, but it wound up luring me in with its trailer. It&#8217;s a very unorthodox type of film that isn&#8217;t like many other films out there. Films like Bronson think outside the box of normal cinema and is the type of gem you&#8217;d hope to find whenever you journey out to your favorite theater. If you&#8217;re looking for a film that is a knock-down-drag-out, eccentric, thrill-ride with a strong lead actor performance, then look no further. Bronson is exactly what you&#8217;re looking for.<\/p>\n<div class=\"syndication-links\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bronson is one of the more interesting films I&#8217;ve had the pleasure of sitting through as of late.
