The movie that inspired the violence of John Woo movies. A western about the last remants of the old west going out with guns blazing. With the simple message at the end never leave your friend behind.
A fantastic unconventional western. Just a free-for-all in mindless violence in the same vein as a Martin Scorcese film, though this is a western Sam Peckinpah turns up the blood in this baby. No good guys vs. bad guys. One of the best and most violent movie climaxes ever filmed.
A much more violent portrayal of the west than usual. Lost of action and gore in a story about the changing of the times to the modern age with cars and more powerful weapons. William Holden does a great job as the leader of the bunch. The ending sequence is one that will be rem...( read more)
Could be worth a viewing, would like to see it sometime in the future.
A largely existential experience with no hero and lots of violence. Groundbreaking for it's time, and still a great film.
Peckinpah's end of the old west tale and a really great movie. Not the best western ever but definitely up there. Holden was amazing and gave me a whole new appreciation for the man. The first 25 minutes and the last 20 are nothing short of amazing. The middle drags at parts but ...( read more)
Peckinpah's use of zoom and slow-motion provides a fresh look at some fading classic film stars. Like most westerns I've seen, relies more on moodiness than an intriguing plot.
This film is as old fashioned as it is hip, even today. A revolutionary film.
This is the manliest movie ever made and my favorite western of all time. A band of aging outlaws drink, fight, and fuck their way across Mexico. They get caught up in some amazing shootouts that are graphic even by today's standards. A testosterone fueled meditation on viole...( read more)
Absolutely crazy film editing and graphic violence. Changed the Western genre forever.
Well, if your a big western fan who wants to indulge in your taste for claret, then this is the movie for you.
its the early 20th century, the last real outlaws are almost gone, and progress is leaving the wild west in history. Enter the Wild Bunch, led by Pike, an aged but s...( read more)
Despite its release date, The Wild Bunch may very well be the first truly modern western: existential conversations, no "good" characters to empathize with and graphic violence abound.
The film's opening is striking and disgusting: a group of kids are torturing a scorpion by d...( read more)
"If they move, kill 'em!" Classic Western Film!! Lot of Fight Scenes were really great!! Unforgetable ambition of Sam Peckinpah.. I love Ernest Borgnine's charactor.. so charming in my opinion. Many crazy situations were well created and really cooL!! No boring moment in 2 and a ...( read more)
The greatest western ever made. See William Holden, Ernest Borgnine,and Robert Ryan among with Warren Oates in the role of their careers. Directed with such finesse by the great Sam Peckinpah.
Different from any Western you'll ever see, this violent, bloody film has terrific characters, stunning action scenes, and features magnificent direction from Sam Peckinpah
The bloodiest western ever, the captivating choice of suicidal glory among fellow fighters in the last days of the wild west. magnificent
My favorite Peckinpah film and one of the best westerns ever made. Hands down. Also one of the most inspirational action films of all time.
The savage end to the west. Brutal, psychotic, surreal and bloody. Peckinpah unapologetically portrays these bastard characters in the twilight of their lives. Technically inspiring a generation of Hollywood filmmakers.
My 2nd favorite western. Soaked in blood and brutally violent. Some of the greatest shootouts ever and it's message is quite powerful as well.
One of the quentisential westerns. The best job Sam Peckinpah ever did and a marvelous performance by the entire ensemble.
The last western, in my opinion. Also one of the best. This is an amazing story of male friendship, loyalty, sacrifice, and of course, violence.
Possibly the best caper film ever made.
Directed by Sam Peckinpah, no more need be said.
Extremely violent, very realistic. Not really a western, more like a war movie.
its a all out free for all when Pike and his Boys get there Hands full into something that they really should not do. i think that Sam Peckinpah really did a good job especially making this kinda of Movie
