Rating: 7/10 (13 December 2011)

i remember watching this movie when i was younger and frankly i didn't remember too much of it just the end and their first major escape... now the picture is pretty clear throughout and some of the on location photography is amazing particularly the mountains and valleys in the escape... the mostly true story carries itself well Newman and Redford ARE the reason to watch this movie... their hilarious on screen chemistry is the highlight... the visuals and ultimately basic photography capture the action perfectly... the use of montages to bypass slow spot in the adventure was interesting but i felt slowed the story down... the music unfortunately is atrociously weird and dates the film more so than knowing Paul Newman is long gone (a real bummer every time i think about it) the movie is a classic and is very good if music is my only concern id say thats a pretty small concern the action and characters carry you through and save the day... that is a testament to the acting... watch this film
