Title: Endlessly watchable
Product review: Why? Because its directed by Sam Peckinpah and has a first-rate cast.Of course Steve McQueen is magnetic in every scene he's in, Ali McGraw is pretty good as well, but the scary Al Lettiri almost steals the film from under their noses as Rudy Butler. You wouldn't want to mix it with this guy.Its basically a simple heist movie with a few minor variations. Naturally as its Peckinpah there are some superb set pieces that you won't forget quickly.The extras on this version are an audio commentary from DVD producer Nick Redman and authors Paul Seydor, Garner Simmons and David Weddle. Also a 'Virtual' audio commentary with stills of Steve McQueen, Ali MacGraw and Sam Peckinpah. These are all OK and in some places quite interesting, but the film is the main reason to get this DVD.
