ASSASSINATION (1987)


  This one is down there near the bottom of the list out of all the Charles Bronson movies I've seen. Instead of the usual revenge-seeking vigilante role he usually played in this era of his career Bronson is instead a secret service agent whose job is to protect the first lady(his real-life wife Jill Ireland). Politics usually drag down most films for me and even though this is not a very intricate plot it does that here too. The action scenes are also pretty lackluster and obviously involve stunt people since I'm sure our senior-citizen lead was not actually zooming around on a motorcycles or a dune-buggy dodging bullets. Watching ol' Charlie fire a rocket launcher at some creep is always fun though. 

There is one out of place Native American character(Indian Joe) that was mildly amusing but only in the film briefly.
