Internationally acclaimed action star, Charles Bronson, is the definitive on-screen “tough guy.” His legendary status was solidified in the midst of his career with a series of leading roles in gritty, crime dramas. This action-packed collection showcases his diverse career with 4 knockout films!

THE VALACHI PAPERS (1972) - The cold-blooded, no holds barred, adaptation of Joseph Valachi's explosive testimony while in prison that exposed unthinkable mob activity in the United States.

THE STONE KILLER (1973) - Crime drama about a tough New York cop who discovers that a gangster is planning a massacre; revenge for a shootout which introduced non-Sicilian elements to organized crime.

BREAKOUT (1975) - A Texas bush pilot is hired by a woman to help break out her husband who is imprisoned in Mexico on a framed charge that was engineered by his Grandfather.

HARD TIMES (1975) - Walter Hill's directorial debut is a raw, bare-knuckled view of street brawlers starring Bronson as a quiet but brutal fighter supported by a chatty and sly promoter played by James Coburn.

This is exactly what I needed in my life.

I own all of them on Blu-ray except for Breakout.

It's great that Hard Times will be available for people who don't yet own it, though.

I've got most of the Charles Bronson films that are available on Region B, but I really hope they release 'St Ives' sometime in the near future.

"Breakout" is rumored to be coming from Indicator. It's a Sony title, so it will be region-free as well.

If that's the case they deserve to be bashed.

For every quality release Mill Creek puts out, there are dozens that are junk. 4 films on one disc? That'll probably lean towards junk.

Interesting that they got Viliachi Papers, which is a 2017 release from Twilight Time. WTF is with that? It's like their "exclusivity" means nothing at this point. Of course, if this is really 4 films on 1 disc the Twilight Time editions should be far more desirable. Should have just done double features, if anything.

[trentdiesel]

I have none of them as I missed on the twilight time releases, I'll get it as a placeholder for sure

[MifuneFan]

It's nearly 7 hours of films, so it's very likely 2 discs.

[Gacivory]

The Kevin Bacon page on Mill Creek says 1 disc, but Amazon says it's two discs. They might have put the wrong number again.

If this is 2 discs, I’ll pick it up to tide me over until Hard Times from Eureka drops in price as well as the upcoming releases from Indicator.

Depending on audio/video, I am in.

I already have the Eureka release of Hard Times. I don't have the other 3 movies, but I will take them at a discount price even though I doubt they will be the greatest quality in terms of transfers. Hard Times is the only one of the 4 that is good enough to justify paying top dollar for. This should be 2 discs instead of 1 though. I mean, one disc? Jeez.

[MifuneFan]

The Sell Sheet does confirm that it's 2 discs:

The Stone Killer was also a 2017 release from TT. They had Sony pull back titles from their exclusivity before (Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, Christine), and both of those times there was something else that Sony "traded" to TT to make it happen. It will be interesting to see how this shakes out.

Probably just so so transfers, but I'll take it.

[Funky-Buddha]

It'll probably be 10 bucks or so. I approve.

[num1cboysfn]

I’ll take it.

[rocknblues81]

Only thing is that I wouldn't list Jill Ireland co-starring as a highlight. She rarely pulled her own weight in their collaborations. There were good together in From Noon Till Three I guess.

[evilive]

Cool, I own Breakout on dvd and I've never seen the others. Good chance I'll be picking this up.
