This is a classic 70's shoot'em up starring Charles Bronson. Bronson plays the title character, a watermelon farmer, whose life is depending getting his crop in.
In this film we have car chases, and action from start to finish. When this film is over, any crook out there will know, not to Mess with Majestyk. A must for any Bronson fan.

i remember going to see this movie as a kid, and it was the first real exposure i had to on screen violence. that may sound like an odd opening statement for a review, but that's basically what i felt at that time. it was the first movie that i saw in a theater that was not a comedy or kid's movie. it was my indoctrination to the real world, as it were, as this story is of an avg. guy (Bronson), trying to make a nice life of farming, after his stint in Nam, but finding it as life threatening as the war itself. a story that is not far fetched in any way, and superbly executed by Bronson and the cast. Al Lettieri, the '70's bad guy dujour, does a wonderful performance as the mobbed up hit man, who sets his vengeful sites on Majestyk after a run in with him. other recognizable faces abound in this picture, mostly of '70's movie fame, which if you have never seen the film, lends creedence, and a nice nostalgic touch. although this film is rated higher than Bronson's '75 "Breakout", i like that one a little better. check 'em both out, you will enjoy the ride. peace.

I purchased this movie as a gift, so haven't viewed it, but it arrived in a timely fashion, so I was pleased.

Like Clint Eastwood, Bronson never had real success until he went to Europe in 1968... Then he hit, and hit big... In one year he becomes a star, and an action-violence king...
Bronson has a strong Slavic face, invisible slit eyes, a gently menacing smile-something like Jack Palance, but more humane...
Social themes are not the usual stuff of Bronson films, but in 'Mr. Majestyk,' he looks tough, yet manages to convey a sympathetic streak in the character he portrays...
He stars as a cool fighting loner who finds his efforts far to be carried out, and solves his problems with muscle and firearms - this time a formidable shotgun..
Vince Majestyk, a Colorado melon grower who haven't clipped his melons yet, gets trouble from a local racist labor racketeer Paul Koslo (Bobby Kopas) who attempts to force him to do business with him, using his crew rather than the hand-picked Chicano migrants he employed...
Majestyk straight advise to the unscrupulous punk is clear: Not to interfere... In this moment, Richard Fleisher's film looks as an action picture about labor and race troubles.... But the script twists it on throwing our genuine working man in prison on false charges...
Accidentally in the same jail is gangster Frank Renda (Al Lettieri).
When Renda's mafia associates stage a breakout for their boss, Majestyk seizes Frank and frustrates their carefully-schemed plan... He then offers to exchange the mafia thug for his own freedom... However, his own plan is ruined when Frank escapes from him, promising bloody revenge...
Al Lettieri, the ruthless hoodlum, is probably best known as Solozzo in "The Godfather," and as a loan shark in 'Rocky.'
Dragging along with Bronson, while he battles the mafia and cops, is Linda Cristal (Nancy Chavez), the beautiful Labor Organizer who provides all the necessary help to our hero... Nancy is quite clear with her Latin accent: 'If you want to go to bed with me, why don't you say so?'
If you like to watch the machine-gun slaughter of hundreds of defenseless watermelons, this is the movie to watch...

I loved this movie when it came out and have seen it a few times on TV. Can't wait to see it again on DVD with all the violence.
This movie and the Getaway with Steve McQueen were must see Movies in the 70's. You can add Dirty Harry and Magnum Force too.
Bronson is so cool. He could make you freeze just by looking at you. He wastes some dudes with a shotgun that was way cool in the 70's and still good now. Violence back then was better, more dramatic, more shocking, more cool than the current overkill fake stuff that they make now. It was more real back then.
