Product ReviewsHard Times (DVD, 1975)

Best depression era movie

I saw this movie the first time in the mid 60s, I loved it. To this day people ask me what my favorite is, and this is it. Lots of actors have tried to clone this movie but unsuccessfully. Charles Bronson to me was the silent but deadly bad ass. I definitely recommend this to be watched by everyone. Without a doubt still the best action movie made. Without tons of unbelievable violence. The original bad ass Charles Bronson.Read full review...

Excellent Film; Excellent Presentation on DVD

Very good entertainment! The disc played flawlessly. Charles Bronson, in particular, is excellent as usual. Overall, this film is quite illuminating, rather silently.

Bronson at his best!

Charles is the man this depression era slugfest. So subtle, so nuanced, this movie often flies under the radar of Bronson classics. Few words, lots of action, Bronson defines an era of tough guys like McQueen and Eastwood. Don't forget James Coburn and Strother Martin. Great supporting roles. Coburn, fast, hustling, sleazy yet principled. Strother Martin, my favorite. Quietly, strong, damaged, yet kind and aware of his failings (" a black cloud appeared over my second year in medical school.... I left under it"). Great movie!!!!!Read full review...

Good Period Piece

Charles Bronson is strong as a poor tough guy fighter during the Great Depression, while James Coburn is excellent as his mouthy and gambling manager. Jill Ireland supports well as Bronson's female interest, who is strong in her own right.Read full review...

Charles Bronsen at his best

this is one of my favorite movies, and a classic by most standards. Fast paced with plenty of action, mixed with humor mostly by great one-liners. Coburn is great as is Strother Martin, well known for his role as Cool Hand Luke's prison warden. Bronsen is Bronsen in the very best way. For a film made in 1975, it has stood the test of time for sure.Read full review...

Needs HD QUALITY.

I have personally copied VHS tapes to DVD that has better focus than this video does. Labeling and packaging is the calling card for this video. Not the focus.

Hard times film with Charles Bronsom

I really love good old movies and among other good ones, this is one of them.I bought Satan's triangle with Kim Novak,Gun Fight with Kirk Douglas sometime back. And I didn't had any problem then. I would have still be buying some more but I just can't seem to make my payment with my debit card for there is too much in there to make the transfer. it's the IDs and pass words that get me reall confuse. sometime in the pass I forgot my pass words and IDs for when i made my first purcheses but I lost them for a while and then all of the sudden I happen to find them and then when I tried to do it again, I still couldn't get inn.Still, would like to some one from E-Bay to help me on this problem cause I really like to buy some more films.I think that the only way that I could do it is to start with a completely diferent registration, which I tried before, but when I went in there for a new registration, and gave you my name, word came out saying that I was already registered I couldn't do any more. Sorry I placed this film of hard times and couldn't get out for my problem. I even tried to send a money order but sometimes it's not eccepted and still, it would take too long for me to receive the purchase. Sorry.

hard to beat.

I had forgotten how good this movie was. A 3 Star cast which couldn't have been better. Between Bronson, Coburn & Martin, the chemistry was perfect....all business in hard times.
