Jul 01, 2013Fantastic dialogue, but, wow, this movie is a direct rip-off of Arthur Penn's BONNIE AND CLYDE.

Nov 26, 2012A disappointing hippie Western that is too light for its own good and errs in tone by diluting the urgency of the story with a tongue-in-cheek humor and endless landscape shots that make it painfully slow - not to mention how hard it is to care about its one-dimensional characters.Carlos M Super Reviewer

Oct 25, 2012A beautifully shot film that combines excellent acting with overt irony to paint a sardonic picture of the western genre.

Jun 18, 2012"Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" is a film of great writing, direction, and cinematography, but the performances of Paul Newman and Robert Redford are what really elevate the production. Their chemistry and comic interplay are what really got me involved, and it's surprising how much depth they actually bring to their characters. But while the film as a whole is wonderfully entertaining, it does have its problems. As much as I like the score, it doesn't work. In fact, it practically ruins several great scenes, with the "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" sequence and the photo montage near the middle being two prime examples. But as hindering to the production as both are, I'm still a big fan.
