The Man. The Myth. The Celebrity.

Michael Peterson, exboxeador que adoptó el nombre de Charles Bronson, lleva más de tres décadas encerrado en prisión. En la cárcel de Woodhill, vestido con el uniforme de presidiario, se dirige directamente a la cámara para contar su vida. Lo hace con un humor autocrítico que repasa sus primeros años, y en algunos momentos el relato se traslada a un teatro de estilo variedad ante público en directo. Considerado por muchos el hombre más peligroso del Reino Unido, Bronson nunca ha sido condenado por asesinato, un dato que la película deja sobre la mesa desde el principio. Dirigida por Nicolas Winding Refn y protagonizada por Tom Hardy, la película arranca con ese tono de confesión teatral y provocadora.

Trivia about Bronson

Charles Bronson quedó tan impresionado con la imitación de Tom Hardy que se afeitó su característico bigote para que el actor lo luciera como accesorio en la película.
Hardy tuvo que subir de peso muy rápido para el papel. Según sus propias palabras, disponía de cinco semanas para hacerlo, y gran parte de ese peso era grasa.
Tras ver la película, Bronson dijo que si moría en la cárcel al menos seguiría vivo gracias al que consideraba el mejor actor del Reino Unido, en referencia a Hardy.
Bronson recibió reseñas positivas al estrenarse. Según el agregador Rotten Tomatoes, obtuvo un 75 % de aprobación a partir de las opiniones de 80 críticos.
