Customer Reviews Rating: - One of the Best
I consider this movie to be one of the best that the husband/wife team of Charles Bronson/Jill Ireland did. Excellent scenery, great action and a sad but great finish. Waiting for the much deserved DVD release.

Rating: - Good scenic photography, but that's about it.
Bland thriller in which Charles Bronson must deliver gangster's moll Jill Ireland to police while assassins trail them all the way by boat, train and plane. There's little suspense in Wendell Mayes' script (he also wrote DEATH WISH 1) but attractive scenic photography makes up for the movies lulls. This lumbering film is basically just an excuse for Ireland to change wigs every ten minutes, her Southern belle accent is also particularly annoying. Does she end up taking a bullet? Could there be a merciful higher being in existance to save us from her dreadful performance? If you're curious: watch it, if not: then don't bother. It's not the sort of movie you remember well the following day. In fact the most memorable part of LOVE AND BULLETS is the last 20 seconds. So I've just saved you wasting approx 102 minutes and 40 seconds of your time.
Rating: - If only there were more bullets flying in this film
Charles Bronson has done a remake of The Gauntlet here in Love and Bullets. Same old storyline tough cop exidrites a female prisoner brings her back so she can testify against the mob. But the Gauntlet was more satifying than this. I am sorry to say that because i'm a big fan of Charles Bronson, but i'm afraid ol charlie missed the mark here quite a bit. The only thing remarkable in this film is the breathtaking swiss alps scenery. And as for Rod Steiger has got to be the most pathetic villain in film history, a stutering mafiso in love with his mistress. Even the greats like Charles Bronson can make bad chocies at times and appearing in this terrible,boring film is one of those times.
