A Spaghetti Western Must Watch

Rating: 7/10 (14 December 2018)

This movie is like cilantro: to some it is great, to others it is like eating soap. For fans of spaghetti westerns, this movie is amazing. To others the movie is too long and boring The story is that Butch Cassidy (Paul Newman) and the Sundance Kid (Robert Redford) are infamous bandits who rob banks, trains, and people and get away with it every time. Until a heist goes wrong and a posse chases them to South America. The movie shows that in the early 1900s, it was incredibly easy to rob anything. To me it seemed like if you were hurting for money, all you had to do was hold up a train and steal from it. This is one of the better westerns I have seen but I have only seen a few. Also I have never seen another movie with the stars of this movie so I cannot accurately judge their performance. I donÂ´t like the scenes that are long with no dialogue such as the waterfall scene. Since I watched this for film class, I am not sure I would have watched this otherwise. Overall, this was a pretty darn good movie.
