Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid Reviews

Butch Cassidy is a visually beautiful film to gaze upon.

| Jul 31, 2024

Credit must go to the Oscar-winning trio of William Goldman, Conrad Hall and Burt Bacharach for the witty script, luminous photography and jaunty score respectively, but all of the charm of this ever-popular picture lies with the charismatic outlaws.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Mar 7, 2024

After a few minutes of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, I began to get that depressed feeling, and, after a half hour, felt rather offended.

| Feb 5, 2024

It was produced and released during the American New Wave and the aesthetic and narrative choices Hill and Goldman made were spot on. They took a “sacred cow” genre and infused it with a new perspective; a jolt that resulted in an instant classic.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jan 15, 2024

In more ways than one, this simple story leaves complexity and nuance to its characters. They do the heavy lifting, and they look great doing it among a sea of creative cinematography from Conrad Hall.

It's lighthearted and likeable, a cool, 1960s spin on a genre that at the time had become a little tired.

| Apr 10, 2023

Some classic moments; the middle section, with the superposse revealing themselves and relentlessly chasing our heroes, is top-notch.

| Original Score: B+ | Nov 29, 2022

Could it be that “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” hasn’t aged well or are there some legitimate issues that have always been there?

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 19, 2022

Busch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is a perfectly harmless and quite entertaining film.

Episode 15: The West Was Red

| Original Score: 65/100 | Sep 1, 2021

Overall I felt disappointed in the film, I wanted to more engaged then I was.

| Apr 1, 2021

A most unusual, quirky, eccentric Western biography.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Aug 24, 2020

Quite simply, the most entertaining Hollywood film around.

| Jan 15, 2020

The film is a raffish, good humored ballad with Butch and Sundance as a pair of lovable rogues -- a Bonnie and Clyde to a ragtime beat.

| Jul 11, 2019

It's a hilarious film with some surprising dark moments...it's a damn good one.

| Original Score: A- | Sep 7, 2018

Such an amiable and ingenious movie that it seems curmudgeonly to get on any critical high horse.

| Jul 13, 2018

It is a great film and will be an exceptionally popular and profitable one.

| Oct 3, 2015

You have to admire the craft and assurance of the thing even as its artificiality hits you in the face.

| May 27, 2011

Funny and poignant tale of two famous outlaws.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jan 2, 2011

The pairing of the roguish desperadoes Paul Newman as Butch Cassidy and Robert Redford as the Sundance Kid was magical.

| Original Score: B+ | Jul 25, 2010
