Review of The Wild Bunch (1969) by Jeff N — 05 Jan 2013
A group of Western outlaws (led by William Holden and Ernest Borgnine) head for Mexico after a disasterous bank robbery while a former friend-turned-enemy (Robert Ryan) pursues the group to bring them to justice in Sam Peckinpah's Western, The Wild Bunch.
Due to its overlength, this film is not exactly the classic that critics claim it to be. All the same though, The Wild Bunch is a fun time with plenty of satisfying and thrilling action including an ingenious train robbery and chase, an enthralling destruction of a bridge, and exciting gun fights in the opening and closing acts.
