In The Mechanic (1972) Charles Bronson plays a hit man who takes an apprentice. In the end his apprentice betrays him, but Bronson avenges from the grave. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
What I loved about this movie is that THERE WERE NO WINNERS! NO SEQUEL!!! This is a true ending for a movie.
Had there been a sequel, it would hard to imagine Bronson doing insane stunts like Statham did in the remake sequel from 2016
The way it should be
I agree. The ending was so atypical of American films.
@@davidtatro7457 You need to watch more films.
💯💯💯💯
Even in death, Charles Bronson couldn't be outwitted. One of the best twists in film history.
I wouldn't want to have Charles Bronson angry at me
Its like he half expected the Jan Michael Vincent's character to kill him, so he studied and predicted his every move - so that he could let him fall into the trap.
Would you like to here something else? Have you seen the Guy In the movie 2021 The Gardner? I thought I was seeing a clone of Charles Bronson..lol!!
@@thelstanedwardsson4374 He _fully_ expected it. There's a scene earlier in the film where he discovered Steve was compiling a dossier on him, just like the ones he was teaching Steve to compile on the marks.
As superior as this film is to the Jason Statham remake, I have to confess that this is the one part of this movie that never has, and still does not sit well with me: that Bishop uncovers evidence that the apprentice he has taken on is planning to kill him, and he doesn't take him out _first._
@@Hibernicus1968 Yeah I noticed that scene where he noticed the dossier that Steve McKenna has obtained. I have the DVD, and I agree its unexplained... but...there are plenty of possible motives for Arthur Bishop letting it happen. He's murdered his 'friend' and Father of Steve McKenna and perhaps there is a conscience there. Perhaps also his health is a factor too - he passes out in the Marine Aquarium,... could that be a tumor or something..probably not.. But... there are possibilities.
How many of us missed the good old Charles Bronson's films?
Many of you weren't even born when Bronson was at his best.
He once said his personal fave movies were all the ones he made
with Jill Ireland, his wife.
That's something you'll NEVER hear in Hollywood today.
All.
the best
Largest Classifieds My father spied Bronson either 70s or early 80s. He told me he was sitting in his chair under the 59th Street bridge on a movie set. He saw Bronson as he was driving by. Might as well share the story since he told me a long time ago and long since passed. Bronson lives in the memory of many even my current neighbors.
You're just asking for likes....admit it.
Saw The Mechanic as a kid. Fell in love with it. He was the ultimate badass.....
This has to be one of the greatest double-twist endings in cinematic history.
Absolutely brilliant
@@jordywoody14, Arthur Bishop checkmated his young student.
I consider this to be one of the best endings to a movie ever. Short,to the point,and satisfying.😹
Boom, good bye Steve
TWSS! 😜

No damn sequels or prequels. Just a totallt un-necessary remake.
Michael Vincent played his role so damn cool and with style it makes the performance feel fresh and never out of date
They both did, to me one of my all time favorites.
Love's a powerful drug
Jan Michael Vincent. The druggy who died young.
@@randymillhouse791 He died only a few years ago. Granted he battle an insane alcohol addiction that it literally disabled him both physically and mentally. It even made him age faster.
@@kazuhirala Yep. A LOSER!
As others have mentioned, Bishop planned this very carefully. It couldn't be an instant explosion when opening the car door. McKenna needed to know who killed him, and he needed to feel that bolt of terror and fear in his gut. Too much of a delay might have given him a chance to escape. McKenna enjoyed the flight home, spent a few minutes in his beautiful new mansion, decided to go for a spin, and.. boom.
If only he'd have seen the note & read the note before opening the door. He had it in his mind that he could relax, thought he had outwitted Author Bishop. But he was wrong. If he'd have known about the bomb that his car was rigged like that, chances are if he'd have shot the car thrown a stick of dynamite at it that might have saved him.

@@brettsoyars4341 If he had known he was going to die he would not have died... right.
@@Studentofgosset He would've smelled the cup first before taking a drink of that wine. Not after. That's what I think.
I always thought Stephen had used the chemical stuff they use to develop the pictures to poison Bishop. That's my hunch anyways.
Good ending.....How good was Bronson as a hit man.....he even killed someone after he was dead...
Jan-Micheal Vincent deserved it! ASSHOLE PUNK!!
Charles Aguilar , right. McKenna thought that he'd outsmart the master with that horrible brucine, but he outsmarted himself.
That's why if you ever visit his grave you need to watch what you say.....they might find you dead alongside his tombstone.

I met Jan in Austin, Texas on 6th Street in 1990. Not that great of an actor, nor Bronson but I loved them both!. R.I.P. to both. Get over it.
Charles Aguilar my thoughts exactly !
RIP Charles Bronson and Jan Michael Vincent
MrAntiSellOut, right. Now both men are gone. RIP to both.
Crazy to see both gone.
@@valuecalc They were both the best. Later tonight I'm probably gonna watch Defiance in memory of Jan Michael Vincent.
Cooldude 22, it's true. How depressing.
MrAntiSellOut, what a salute that'll be. Unfortunately, he had been in failing health. Retirement was likely not a time of comfort. We shall miss Jan-Michael. What a good star.
Didn't expect Jan Michael Vincent did a good job as villain before he did Airwolf. RIP to both legends.
JMV played a completely Evil , Charming, Good-Looking, but totally Souless Sociopath is this Movie. In AirWolf ,he was defitnely the good Guy. I think that JMV had to Leave AirWolf of his Drinking Porblems. I think, but I am not positive that he died of Alcholism. Too bad that he didnt get into a Good Rehab and/or Try A.A.
I was wondering where I've seen him and then you posted Airwolf. Bam, it hit me. Thanks for the reminder.
@@HoldenNY22Jan Michael Vincent has got to be the number one “what if” case in Hollywood. Great actor with a perfect face, should have been a massive star, but his demons destroyed him.
@@thelastperfectman4139 Maybe it was his ego that killed him.
@@None-zc5vg Nope. Definitely the drugs and the booze. ALL the booze.
Now THAT is how you end a movie.
Charles Bronson ... he was a badass even after he was dead.
+Robert G. I've set a trap for a cocky apprentice assassin- a cruel irony.
Charles used his weakness on him too....
+Robert G. You know thats right !..Working the coalmines, when he was 10 yr
old, to help his family..(Johnstown PA ..Derry, actually
+Robert G. you're goddamn right he was! :)
+Robert G. He doesn't even know that he's dead because his doctor is afraid to tell him.
I love in the end how he reads the note on the car and then realises- o crap game over...
your ded... wisecracking young prick. Bronson more than done him in. He should have said goodbye parted with the money and never seen each other again. His ego got the best of him- Im sure Charles knew about his weaknesss too.
"One of the best movie endings of all time!"
Got to agree
And was repeated in "Mechanic" with Statham
Absolutely
@@brdski_2238 Statham survived though...
No doubt
When movies did not need to have a happy ending.
and one of the most dramatic, convincing, poisoning deaths ever!
... But satisfying ending.
Also, no sitting through 15 minutes of credits to wait for a final scene. "Bang, you're dead. Now leave the theater."
The protagonist gets his revenge from the grave, that's not a happy ending?
I think that this is a happy ending.
After he said, "See Naples and die," even I wanted him to get it. JMV, bad choice, never kill your mentor, while you're still the apprentice. Better yet, never kill Charles Bronson.
Very well said......
True that
Quite right. Followed by the finest, most sudden, completely unforeseen and utterly perfect movie ending in history. Michael Winner achieved immortality with this masterpiece alone.
Never turn on your master.
Colin Phillips Don’t forget Verbal Kint...
Love Bronson and those 70 movies--they took their time to tell a story. And the leading actors were more interesting looking than today's model-types. Go Bronson!
Wow this is an old comment. But, I just wanted to say that Bronson is just an interesting man to watch on screen. Looks like he’s seen some shit.
RIP Charles Bronson and Jan Michael Vincent..
BigMike1975 , we shall miss both men.
How time flies when we lose people we grew up on. Rip Charles and Vincent
The most underrated action film of the 1970s. Charles Bronson's best performance.
I think his best movie of that decade was Hard Times but this one is still a classic anyway; Charley Varrick is also one of those awesome 70's action movies that are criminally underrated, the Seven-ups is very good too, great decade for action movies.
@@g.sergiusfidenas6650 The Seven Ups (1973) didn't have Bronson. Roy Schieder starred in that. Hard Times (1975) comes a distant second for me.
I didn't see the ending coming in this one and that is why I like this one better. Also the first 15 minutes with no dialogue was a terrific scene for an action film. This is Bronsan's masterpiece. He was never better.
I do agree with you that The Seven Ups is a good film but only because of that terrific chase scene.
@@MaxSharma1989 I guess it is a matter of taste but for me his best movie was Once Upon a Time in the West but it was not carried only by Bronson, Cardinale, Fonda and Robards were all excellent too. Anyway Charles was way better than the last stage of his career for which he is mostly remembered for sadly.
@@g.sergiusfidenas6650 Have to agree with you on the last part.
I also liked him in "The Magnificent Seven"
They should never remake these movies.They were great with the great actors of their time.Nuff said.
I have informed about this for many many years now, to many remakes these last years I wonder why,... Lack of imagination ? Or something else.
They need to quit remaking bronson movies
Charles Bronson my all time best actor.
Cant stand most remakes.
Gone in 60 seconds sucks dick, just call it something else.
Yep leave, them be.
The 13-second delay from 4:11 - 4:24 gave him enough time to read the note so he would know who killed him. I think Edgar Allen Poe wrote about that theme once: it is very important for the target to know, before he dies, who killed him, and why. That is the reason that the killer is willing to take the risk that the target will escape while that lesson is taught. Otherwise, it would have been only a 3 second trigger.
Exactly. Do you ever wonder why these movies are so great to watch. It’s because its something we want to do to someone but can’t because of our moral nature. We all have our Darksides. Control by the Angela of our nature. But we get to live out these feelings watching people get blown up and shot and murdered.
@@stevescontriano860 I agree
duh!
@nothosaur Well, I'm 12 years too late on the reply, but you are right, nothosaur. It was Poe who brought up that theme in his famous story the Cask of Amontillado. Great post, even if I'm 12 years behind.
@@firebird6522 You're right. I was not sure which of his many stories that came from. The Cask of Amontillado is it. "I must not only punish but punish with impunity. A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong."
Best movie ending ever....sorry Jan....you just NEVER cross CHARLES BRONSON
Really ok.. What caused the explosion in the end? 🍷
Bronson's house in this flick is the coolest in film history.
I totally agree. His Mustang is cool too.
TOTALLY 70'S !!!
@@Plainsimple67 greatest era ever ! ☮✌
I love the bruicine part. They were both so good in the movie
I wonder if it's still in existence. I'm sure it doesn't look the same inside these days.
It really is exactly 13 seconds from the time the door opens and the explosion. The note was perfectly written to have just enough time.
Spot on match.
Yep, this is not some BS movie from today when it could be 7 or 20 seconds.
Would you expect anything else...
Bronson didn't die. He was watching from afar to see his plan worked then changed his name to Paul Kersey
The man had a deathwish, for screwing with Charles Bronson
I"m surprised he didn't wait until sometime between 10 to midnight to do it.
Do we have to Breakout the jokes?
His days of being a mechanic, were definitely Hard times....
@@brianbradburn Yeah, instead it happened sometime from noon till three
So much better than the remake.

The killer of killers always gets his target, even from beyond the grave! What an ending, man.
McKenna thought that he was doing well. Oh, he was checkmated fast.
The sign of the best at his craft. Yes, JMV was correct about his weakness of not being able to cut it alone. But JMV, made the mistake of underestimating the master. He told him he was an associate, not a partner. JMV, still had a lot to learn...
What a classic. My husband keeps pestering me to see the remake just to irritate me.
I LOVE this movie.
Please don't watch the remake.

@@4Topwood You did. And you will.
New movie sucks, don't see it.
The " Bang, your dead " line was badass.
Game over.
Coolest ending to a movie period. His weakness was his curiosity of the note. Still wanting to learn. It always gets you. Bronson knew it. I taught you everything you know, not everything I KNOW!
Little did Steve know his first hit would be himself.
Laugh my ass off!
Superb ending from a great film.
Really ok.. What caused the explosion in the end? 🍷
@@evm6177 Bishop booby-trapped the car to kill Steve.
Watch it again - I believe it was the door opening a second time that actually tripped the bomb. The 13 seconds was just to create a sense of panic and prevent the mark from thinking things through (maybe exiting through a window). The reason I think this is so Charles could have disarmed the bomb manually from the inside visa a switch. That way the trap stays live and active for the duration of his "career" and partnership - so he isn't resetting it every day and taking unnecessary risks.
Very intuitive , ,
Awesome observation. Makes perfect sense through and through. If a hit man was treacherous enough to bomb his target's car, why would he feel a moral compunction to write a truthful note to the target?
Steve was dead either way, good ridden
I timed it from the moment he opened the door. It WAS 13 seconds!!!!
If that's the case, then it's doubtful he rigged it to go off opening a second time and more likely he rigged the trip to the inside door handle, which Steve would need to get out but not in.
One of my all-time favorite movies. Raw, pre-CGI, pure cinema.
The Days when Movies were great 😊
Even death can't stop Charles Bronson.
Remember this the next time you think of insulting him!
End of game, BANG your dead!!!
Charles Bronson SUCKS!!! (walking to my car, getting in, sees a note on my rearview mirror......BANG!!!!) :-)
Flint Ironstag no he doesn't you do
He knew JMV was going to try to kill him but he didn't just run away. He lived his action-packed life. Like JMV said he couldn't hack it alone. But he had the final say in taking out JMV after he was dead. They don't make endings like this any more.
I saw that in Seattle with my brother. We were both on the edge of our seats waiting for the finale as we had about 10 minutes to catch the ferry. As soon as the kaboom, we ran outta the theater as fast as we could. Made it! Great show. Miss them both.
😎
Yes! edge of seats!
Loved this film when I was a kid. I watched it every time it was on late night movies. Couldn't wait for this scene.
Boom!
This was a genius ending. When you think it's going one way and then there's a lovely twist at the end. 😁
Love it, Charles Bronson is the mechanic.
@@joethekinghawk7514 He's my man. Sorry Jason but Charles was the OG.
I love the way Bronson timed it to the second, so JMV would ALMOST make it out of the car.
Yeah, but the delay trigger went off after only 12 seconds.
@@phdtobe If it was attached to the door, then it is 13 seconds. JMV opens the door at about 4:09.5, and the bomb goes off at 4:23. But either way, it a real cool ending.
Cybrsk8r Should have used a smaller charge just blow off a couple of body parts😀
Eric Smith Oh, yeah! I counted using “one thousand”s. I guess my “timer” was slow.

You forgot one more rule: He's always ONE STEP AHEAD!
Love the grainy look of the movies of the 1970s, ...they had a gritty realism that sadly lack in modern day movies,....and this Charles Bronson classic, ticks all the boxes.
Yes back then muvies looks more real then today muvies.
And It’s Exactly 13 seconds.....
Check it!!
The coolest ending ...EVER!
On top of that, the 15+ minutes of totally speechless beginning was a milestone in action films.
Well why would a hitman have to blowup a building ? All he had to do
was wait inside and shot the dum dum with dum dum bullets.
Perfect end to a movie.
+Joe Smith Hell yea!
And that's how you end a movie and clear out a theater rolling credits
R. I. P. Mr. Bronson & Mr. Vincent. You certainly were a great team here.
Never outsmart the master. I always say.

Jimmy G. , its freshness is sealed after each time that we watch it.
Saw this as a kid when it came out, don't really know why but love the inside of that house.
Even when Steve is at bishops house you can still feel bishops presence as if he were there.
Other than The Godfather and maybe some Dirty Harry films, best movie revenge scene ever!
Get Carter, the original, is up there too in that category.
@@g.sergiusfidenas6650 my husband is obsessed with Get Carter. His all time fav film
@@cindyinnew it is great, Caine was a big star already by that time so the producers were quite surprised he was willing to interpret such character but thank god he did what a gem of movie; apparently Hendry (the guy who played Eric) was their first choice to play Carter but by that time he was such an alcoholic that there was no way he could pull that role despite being a great actor in his own right, he also seemed to detest Michael Caine and envied his success given that his own career was declining and thus the enmity seen in the screen was partially based in real life.

@@valuecalcTrue. I still watch it to this day. It never gets old. Great acting and great location sites. Both deceased and quite depressing. Hollywood lost two gems.
CB was a very hard working actor for some time, and especially through the 1970's. Not bad at all considering he was a relatively late starter in the profession. He was doing some of his best action films when he was in his forties and fifties.
I have to admit being a fan of "Death Wish IV" Its a really bad film, but Bronson still does a good job with his role. You never see him sleeping his way through a movie like some established stars do.
He always delivered.
Watch Red Sun. Brilliant movie
He was a bad ass on/off screen, like many of those WW2/Korean War vet turned actors were back on the day.
@@asadiqbal123 Amazing movie, and a great recommendation. I would also suggest "Hard Times", which I feel is one of his best.
He was really good in "The Great Escape".
Now THAT'S what I call a finish. Love the Charles Bronson movies involving revenge. These days I'm watching people like Liam Neeson. Not quite as good but you take what you can get.
Bronson was a real tough guy.
THE REMAKE WITH JASON WAS A JOKE
My man Bronson, so cool in the movies. All his cowboy flicks are great but my favorite is Hard Times, such a classic, Mr. Majestyk was too.
Yea i love the truck scenes
Hard Times was the best.
Once Upon A Time In The West
Mr. Majestyk was awesome.
Great film with a fantastic twist ending. It's a shame how Jan-Michael Vincent destroyed himself with alcohol and drugs.
how?
@@aansul888Arrests, car accidents that resulted in permanent injuries, and a host of other troubles that come from drug and alcohol abuse.
This film was also helped by a pretty good soundtrack music score - Jerry Fielding? The sequence where Bronson discovers that Vincent has been ordered to kill him is a very well executed example as are the opening minutes of the film. Never tire of watching this film now and again. Still stands up well.

Best saying motto ever
RIP Jan-Michael Vincent
I'm gonna stick my neck out here and say The Mechanic is the best Charles Bronson film of them all. Certainly my fave.
Death Wish 1 & 2 spoke to everybody. The ultimate good guy vs bad guy in very relatable & realistic circumstances.
I don't want to play favorites, but...I did like the first couple of "Death Wish" movies, and also LOVED the movie "Hard Times." Amazing movie.
A great, great movie. And what a classic ending. So 70's. Great stuff.
The fact that this movie was rated PG is fucking hilarious.
It means parents should be guiding children towards good action films
Good tribute to two great action heroes, and a great film
Jan Michael Vincent was a handsome bastard. He later went on to make one of my favorite TV shows of all time... Airwolf
I really miss life in the 70s & 80s: real people, music, movies and culture. 2000's no imagination or excitement left but pure trash that fails miserably next to the great times experienced beforehand!
AMEN
So true
Born in 66, best time ever!
I agree the good old days is over.
Caught this on late night TV last week, and was amazed by what a great film it actually was. Never watched a Charles Bronson film, and figured I had him pegged.. But this really surprised me.
Great cinematography, excellent acting, and one of the best action / suspense scripts I've seen in a long while.
yes!
Watched this film with my dad.. Thanks for putting it on CZcams. Much appreciated. 👍
April 14, 2018---Thanks for the video clip. Happened to see this while stationed at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma...and boy, was I surprised at the ending.
Oh, yes, I remember seeing that years ago, and what an ending!! Pure Bronson, pure brilliance!! Just goes to prove you should never fuck with the man from Death Wish!!
infinitely better than the crappy remake
i disagree. unless your 50..
Jinno J. Really, so you think the end part where the Transporter McPlastic Man dodges the blast was a better ending? They are essentially the same, apart from in this version there is some acting going on, and in the remake the mechanics apprentice is a charisma free idiot.
+Boredand Faartless Nostalgia is a bitch the remake is alot better with better soundtracks, even the acting was good ( last scene was alot better also ) but yea guess they should've just killed 'em both in the end.
Sorry but Jason Statham and Ben Foster haven't got the acting quality of Charles Bronson and Jan-Michael Vincent. Plus: They let Bishop surive. Come on, this is a cheap hollywood ending where heroes always survive because people want this "good-feeling cinema".
Didn't like remake. Jason Statham is a decent actor but not in the league of Charles Bronson.
When I first saw The Mechanic in the theater along with a high school friend in 1973, I was 17 years old. The main feature (dbl. features still back then) was Dirty Harry; Magnum Force. The theater is on the same block where I reside, the Granada Theater.
DAMN, I would have LOVED to have seen those 2 movies together!!
@@arthurbishop3173 And it was the last late showings for that night. I think my buddy and I walked out the Granada Theater past 11 pm or 12 am. I also saw Enter The Dragon with Bruce Lee there as well in 1973. I just can't remember what the second feature was. And I saw Cheech and Chong there as well live on stage in 1974. I would say just about everyone was high that evening.
Note to Hollywood, leave these classic's alone! Come up with some original ideas or hire some people that can do it for you!
It will never happen, Cap'n! Hollywood is all about the quick buck now. They have told their screenwriters and directors: **STICK TO SIMPLE-MINDED KID STUFF!!** And (guess what!), that's exactly what they've done...

Great film, u cant beat the originals , Bronson was awesome ⭐️
One of Bronson's best, Jan Michael Vincent great too.
best ending in a movie EVER!
I think Bishop has a death wish, all those panic attacks, depressing life and loneliness finally got to him. That's why he played along and was just waiting to see how his protégé/boy lover would kill him. Of course not to be outwitted, he planted a bomb in his fancy car just in case his protégé was dumb enough to fall for it. He probably planted other traps or bombs in the house too.
Yeah...I agree. Jerry Fielding's score added so much to this film. I have the CD...its brilliantly recorded and amazing !! I hope his score for "Straw Dogs" get released someday soon.!!
One of my favorite movies!
The “bang! your dead” signature by Paul Kersey was a nice touch.
Charles Bronson was perfect for this role and Jan Michael Vincent played a great psychopath (he was definitely without remorse for anything or anyone).
And For Real.....Their Both Gone R.I.P. Mr. Bronson & Mr. Vincent.
There was a radio ad for this movie when it came out, it went like this:
"Charles Bronson is ... The Mechanic. He'll fix your wagon. But good."
CLASSIC! in my collection for life, love Bronson!
good matchup but you knew Bronson would get him in the end. He was too tough and besides the older guy is smarter. Never was cinema any better than with these 70s exploitation films.
Because of this exploitation by the corporate pimps and there prostitutes in the European union movies are really getting bad and boring, LOL
The old saying- a teacher never tells the pupil Everything.
Cooldude 22 , correct! He tends to be tougher and wiser. Defeating a master is extremely difficult.
A lot of up camera shots.
If I Jim Michael Vincent could’ve got his act in gear before he lost his leg his life his legacy. I remember when a great movie actor said “don’t smoke”. I would like to be able to say in my life “don’t drink”
