Bronson
Spending about 34 years at prison changes the entire life of Michael Peterson, an ordinary ambitious teenager boy, who wants to affect on people and be an important one, so he tries to rob a post office, the thing that brings terrible for him, as he has been arrested and sentenced to 7 years at first, as he impersonates the personality of Bronson, his best celebrity.

...the film can barely contain Tom Hardy's performance. It's a Method turn so bloodily immersive it's hard to imagine the actor getting his head straight afterwards.

An overstylized mess, with a brave but pointless performance from Tom Hardy as a lifelong prisoner who just wants to destroy everything around him, most of all himself.

A pointless exercise in morbidity.

Hardy does an admirable job of making this monster human, which he achieves with surprising wit and a visceral, attention-grabbing passion.

...an anthropological study in human viciousness, like a nature film done by Stanley Kubrick.

Part literate black comedy, part surrealistic character study, part horror movie, Bronson is a sophisticated confection, rich and dark, sprinkled with bitter little jokes.

The movie's giddy brio can leave you punch-drunk, and oddly unsatisfied.

Bronson is one of those "based on a true story" dramatizations where the theatrically staged drama only gets in the way of the more interesting truth.

Itâ(TM)s a meditation on the art of rage -- an action painting passing itself off as an action movie.

This is psychotic behavior as performance art, and Hardy makes it irresistible.

"Nuffin' wonky about my upbringing," Bronson says, early on. Nothing wonky about Hardy's performance, either.
