Review of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969) by Kevin M — 24 May 2012

This is a really solid Western. I've never seen an old Western, but I've seen modern ones such as 3:10 to Yuma, True Grit, and The Assassination of Jessie James. You can't really compare Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid to those films because of the time difference, but I was still entertained by this.

I liked the ending a lot. Taking place in Wyoming at least a hundred years ago, the film is shot beautifully as the camera pans from landscape to landscape. I usually think classic movies are overrated, but I don't think this one is.

I liked it.
