Mr. Majestyk is a bit of a disappointment. While some outdoor daytime close up shots looked pretty good, there are plenty of interior and dark scenes that are extremely grainy. This one belongs in the under $10 sale bins.

Recently saw Mr. Majestyk on the Kino Lorber Blu. Great '70's action flick, and though not my favorite Bronson (that would be The Mechanic), this was extremely well-done.
The PQ was solid (for the most part), but there were still some scenes where there was a lot of film grain visible - especially at night. However, considering this is an older film, that was understandable. Plus, since Bronson films on Blu are few & far between anyway, I'm not complaining too much
I liked how the film started out one way, and then when Bronson (as a prisoner) was involved in the attempt to free that hit man, the film shifted a different way - very creative story-telling.

I'm with you on this one, Jim. I thought the movie looked pretty good on Blu. Fun Bronson flick, always get a good laugh at picturing ol' Chuck as a watermelon farmer. The Elmore Leonard novelization fills in the character's backstory as a badass military vet, which explains his ability to take out mobsters with relative ease. And of course, Al Lettieri as the bad guy is a big plus.
