'Death Sentence' really is a throwback to the '70s style revenge drama with moments of action. It's like a contemporary 'Death Wish' with a much more thriller style storyline, but the action scenes I shot very much in the style of '70s films like 'The French Connection.'

I've done about four deaths in films now, and I think it's quite good because then it's sort of a memorable moment in the film.

I never thought I would say this, but I'm desperate to do an action film.

I just like to do work that inspires me, and I don't pay any attention to whether it's a high- or low-budget movie.

I've been lucky enough to work with some great directors, and I don't want to throw that away by doing one big horrible big budget film.

I did a film once that I was killed in. It was a painful, horrifying day. It was a wonderful day from the standpoint of acting, but I was a wreck otherwise.

I've done quite a lot of dying on shows and in movies. To have a good death scene though - come on, it's brilliant. I love a good death scene!

I would say that my favorite action film is the 'Die Hard's. They're kind of perfect, I think.

I always wanted to do an action movie, not particularly 'Bond.'

I think what makes a good action film is a story that gets you involved. Just action, by itself, is not going to work.
