Quite the entertaining western adventure...

Rating: Null/10 (30 September 2003)

..."Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" stars Paul Newman and Robert Redford as, well, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, two train/bank robbers who are in trouble with the law, the railroad company, and a possey led by an expert tracker. Cassidy and Sundance exchange fire with the possey, leap from tall waterfalls and much more in this great comic adventure.
The most notable part of "Butch" is definitely the screen-writing. William Goldman also pleased with "All the President's Men" and "The Princess Bride" among others. His comic, yet exciting way of writing his adventures that puts him on my list as one of the best screenwriters of all time.
Of course, the performances are very well-done too. Newman is cool and smooth as Butch, but Redford's Sundance would be my favorite character. His quiet, calm way of acting in dangerous situations makes him as loved as similar characters (i.e.: Mr. Blonde from Reservoir Dogs, Tom Reagan from Miller's Crossing).
Everyone loves this western, and for no bad reason, 8/10.
