Amazon.com:
This thoroughly unpleasant 1986 thriller stars Charles Bronson as a cop systematically framed for one murder after another. The killings, though, turn out to be the work of a female nutcase (Carrie Snodgress) he had once sent away to prison. Everyone involved in this leans on the atrocity-and-revenge formula, particularly Bronson and director J. Lee Thompson (The Guns of Navarone), two Hollywood guys who once upon a time made plenty of classic films. Snodgress's performance is unhinged, interesting but hard to watch, as we never really got to know her onscreen after Diary of a Mad Housewife. Just think of this movie as having come from the same creepy planet as the Death Wish series. --Tom Keogh

Murphy's Law: If anything could possibly go wrong, it will.
Murphy's Second Law: Don't mess with Jack Murphy. (Substitute the usual word for `mess.')
Murphy's Law is a lot better than some people would have you believe. Yeah, yeah, it's a Charles Bronson film from the Eighties, a period when a lot of film enthusiasts sniffed that Bronson was little more than a stuffed dummy who phoned in his performances. Bronson is one of those actors who make condescension drip from the ... Read More

"Murphy's Law" has a special place in my heart because it is the first movie that introduced me to Charles Bronson many, many, many years ago. Charles plays Jack Murphy a burnt out cop who is framed for killing his ex-wife. Jack (Bronson) is arrested for the murder, but vows to find the real killer.
Jack (Bronson) ends up getting hand cuffed to a young girl named Arabella McGee (Kathleen Wilhoite). For the record Arabella has a bit of a potty mouth. As a matter of she calls Jack (Bronson) ... Read More

Thriller.

I found this movie exciting. It had language I did not appreciate, including in a twice repeated segment dealing with the film's title, both early and very late in the movie (paraphrased):
BAD GUY: "Murphy's Law is whatever can go wrong will go wrong."
JACK MURPHY (Charles Bronson): "No, Murphy's Law is don't mess with Jack Murphy." (I use "mess"; the original word in the movie is one I would never use.)
Besides the foul language, there is nudity and gore which I ... Read More

He throws his groceries at carjackers! He gargles mouthwash! He hates mayonaise! He's an alcoholic! He has a girl 104 years younger than him, hitting on him! His ex wife is a stipper! And he's framed for murder! He's Jack Murphy, a no nonsense cop framed for murder, trying to clear his name...tra-la, tra-la. The plot is as cliche as it can be, but this is Bronson, baby! Us devoted Bronson fans watch his films because he's in them and we all love the charm and presence he brings to the run of the mill ... Read More
