Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

[Laughing Mask]

well i was at the video store and they didn't have the game i was looking for. so i was about to walk out when i saw on the movies for sale rack Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid!! and it was cheep!
i was looking for that movie last week but i couldn't find it.

so now i got a movie to watch tonight.

who else here is a fan of this movie?

[Huh?]

I like it. I probably wouldn't buy it because it can be pretty slow when you rewatch it, but the dialogue in that movie is amazing. The direction and acting ain't too shabby either.

[Lone Ranger]

It's one of my favourite films of all-time.

It would be perfect if it weren't for the bloody bicycle scene.

[Ilash]

Awesome movie with one of film's all time great endings.

[EZMOHR]

Great movie, great tandem, great ending. If it wasn't for The Sting, it would be the best Newman/Redford movie ever.

[Infernorhythm]

One of the best movies ever. I honestly think the Sting was the best Redford/Newman collaborations, but Butch and Sundance has so many great moments.

"You know where we should go next?"
"I don't want to hear it Butch!"
"Australia."
"Why should we go to Australia?"
"They speak English there."
"...Oh."

This movie was too happy for my tastes. It felt like I was watching a bunch of people happily playing pretend. Even the ending had a jovial tone to it which is quite a feat considering they died.

Butch: Before we get started, let's set the rules...

Big Guy: Rule!?! In a knife fight? No rules in a knife fight!

Butch kicks him in the nuts and he drops to his knees...

Butch: Someone say one, two, three, go...

Sundance: Onetwothreego

Butch clobbers the big guy.

Flatnose: I was rootin' for you all along Butch.

Butch: I know you were Flatnose.



They just don't write scenes like that any more. Man, now I have to rewatch this movie.

Butch/Sundance at various points in the long chase... "Who are those guys?"

But that was Katherine Ross, AKA Mrs. Robinson's daughter.

AKA Sam Elliot's squeeze.

Oh, I think she's great - it's just the stupid 'Raindrops Keep Fallin...' bit really breaks up the flow of the movies and transports us from the late 19th C. to the 60s.

I'm still shocked that someone thought that was a good idea.

[jesse_custer]

A great movie with two fun leads but still overrated to a certain extent.

One of the best running lines in a film.

I admit, the bicycle scene, as well as all the photomontages turned me off as it killed the pace, but overall the movie was still great. It was a fun romp, with two buddies who kept up the banter all the way to the end. I still think The Sting was the superior movie, with a great plot and sophistication, but Butch/Sundance are brilliant.

This is my dad's all-time favorite movie. He only likes one movie every two or three years on average, so to say that a movie is one of his favorites is high praise indeed. He also loved The Milagro-Beanfield War and Slapshot. Personally, I like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, but it probably doesn't even get on my top 50 list. Not that I have written down a top 50 list or anything.

I think I like your Dad.

The movies that he likes are undeniably good, but I think he misses out on some great movies by being close-minded. And due to a phobia involving snakes, he took a 30-minute smoking break in the lobby during Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid was made at a time when they still made movies with a script attached.

As Paul Newman once said,now they shoot "budgets".
