Death Wish 2 : ウィキペディア英語版
Death Wish II

''Death Wish II'' is a 1982 crime thriller action film directed by Michael Winner. It is the first of four sequels to the 1974 film ''Death Wish''. In ''Death Wish II'', architect Paul Kersey (Charles Bronson) moves to Los Angeles with his daughter (Robin Sherwood). After his daughter is murdered at the hands of several gang members, Kersey is once again forced to become a vigilante. Unlike the original, in which he hunts down every criminal he encounters, Kersey only pursues his family's attackers. The sequel makes a complete break from the Brian Garfield novels ''Death Wish'' and ''Death Sentence,'' redefining the Paul Kersey character.
The sequel was produced by Cannon Films, which had purchased the rights to the ''Death Wish'' concept from Dino De Laurentiis. Cannon executive Menahem Golan planned to direct the film, but Winner returned on Bronson's insistence. The soundtrack was composed by guitarist Jimmy Page. ''Death Wish II'' was released in the United States in February 1982 by Filmways Pictures but like the original, Columbia Pictures handled the international release. It earned $16.1 million during its domestic theatrical run.
==Plot==
Paul Kersey (Charles Bronson) seems to have picked up the pieces of his life and moved on, and is now dating L.A. radio reporter Geri Nichols (played by Bronson's real-life wife Jill Ireland). They go to pick up Kersey's daughter Carol (Robin Sherwood) from the hospital, where her doctor says that despite traumatic catatonia, Carol has begun to speak again. Paul, Geri, and Carol spend the afternoon at a carnival. While waiting in line for ice cream, Paul gets pick-pocketed by five gang members (named Nirvana, PunkCut, Stomper, Cutter and Jiver). He catches up with Jiver, after a brief struggle, denies taking Paul's wallet. Paul lets him go.
Geri leaves to do an interview while Carol and Paul go on a boat ride. At the same time, the muggers that stole Kersey's wallet go to his house. They break in and violently assault the maid, Rosario, then wait for Kersey to arrive. When Paul arrives home with his daughter, he is beaten unconscious. Rosario tries to call the police, but a mugger hits her with a crowbar, killing her. They kidnap Carol (fearing she will identify them) and take her with them to their hideout where they begin to rape her. Before they all are done, she jumps through a window in an attempt to escape, and dies after impaling herself on railings below.
Paul regains consciousness as Geri arrives and they find Rosario's body. When the police arrive, Lt. Mankewicz (Ben Frank) asks for help identifying the muggers. Paul learns about the death of his daughter. He's asked to view mug-shots at the station, but refuses to do so. After the funeral, Paul takes a handgun to a low-rent inner city apartment as a base of operations. The next night he spots Stomper and follows him into an abandoned building as a drug deal is about to be made. Kersey kills one of the dealers, then orders the others out and proceeds to execute Stomper.
The following night, patrolling the streets, he hears a scream from a couple being assaulted by several muggers in a parking garage. One of the muggers is Jiver, the mugger Kersey chased the day of his daughter’s death. They force the woman into a van where they plan to rape her. Before they can, Kersey intercedes, killing two and wounding Jiver; he is able to escape, but doesn't get far because Paul follows his blood trail, tracks him down and shoots him in the head, killing him.
The LAPD hear about the murders, as does the NYPD. When Kersey falls under suspicion, NYPD Detective Frank Ochoa (Vincent Gardenia) is called in for fear that Kersey, when caught, will reveal that he was let go instead of prosecuted. The NYPD sends Ochoa to make sure that does not happen. Ochoa meets with lt. Mankewicz, who suspects Frank is hiding something. Ochoa breaks into Geri’s apartment, then tells her about Paul's past and present vigilante spree. Geri confronts Paul but he denies it, ascribing the tale to Ochoa's imagination. Ochoa follows Kersey to a local square where Kersey spots the three remaining gang members who attacked him.
Kersey follows the trio to an abandoned park, where a major arms and drug deal goes down. Ochoa follows and decides to help Paul when the criminals are about to spot him. Ochoa is shot, while Paul manages to kill Cutter (who vainly tries to shield his head with a boom box) and severely wound PunkCut. Paul kills the getaway driver and the seller of the firearms, where they plummet off of a cliff. The final mugger, Nirvana, gets away. Ochoa tells Paul he saved his life because he felt it was better to side with Paul than the criminals. He tells Paul to kill one for him, then Ochoa dies as the police arrive. Paul flees while PunkCut dies from his injuries.
Paul later learns, from one of Geri's colleagues, that the police are preparing a tactical unit to capture Nirvana. Paul obtains a police scanner and begins monitoring the police radio traffic. He shortly finds out when and where the arrest is going to take place. He drives to the location to exact his own justice before the police can arrest him, but he is not successful.
Nirvana gets tasered, but with no effect due to the influence of PCP. He is finally arrested after stabbing several officers and slashing Paul on the arm during a chase. Tried and found criminally insane, the young man is sent to a mental institution. Geri and Paul visit him, requesting an interview, but are turned down. While there, Paul steals a doctor's ID card. The next night, Paul uses his fake ID to confront him. They have a violent fight and Kersey is stabbed repeatedly with a scalpel. Kersey gains an advantage when Nirvana's hand smashes through an electroshock machine. Kersey turns the power on, fatally electrocuting him. An orderly on duty witnesses the hood's death but, because he sympathizes with Kersey, he gives him three minutes to escape before sounding the alarm.
Geri goes to Paul's apartment, where she finds evidence of his making a fake iD. Upon hearing a news report of the hoodlum's death on the radio, she realizes that Paul really is the vigilante Ochoa claimed him to be. She places her engagement ring on the paper, packs her things into suitcases, and drives off. A few months later Paul is seen speaking about a new architectural design. His boss invites him to a party, and when Paul asked if he's free, he answers: ''What else would I be doing?''. We next see a shadowy figure walking in the night (presumably Kersey) continuing the hunt for more criminals.
