One of the Best

A high charged Sam Peckinpah action film with Steve McQueen as Doc McCoy and Ali MacGraw as his wife. Sprung from prison to work a heist for millionaire oilman Ben Johnson, a crooked henchman sends the whole thing into a free fall with McQueen and MacGraw trying to stay one step ahead of the bad guys. Also starring Slim Pickens. Steve McQueen shows just how damage one man can achieve with a pump-action .12-gauge. Forget the rancid Alec Baldwin retread. This is the one. October 29, 2008

Mcqueen fan

As far as I'm concerned Steve McQueen can't do anything wrong. Love this film. What chemistry between Steve and Ali! The remake pales in comparison. See the original. September 10, 2008

A Semi- Classic

The coolest actor, the coolest old cars and great car chase !
Put it all together and with a great story and you have a great movie!

Not dated at all ! September 6, 2008

The Getaway

An action packed thriller with Steve McQueen and Ali McGraw leading a good cast directed by Sam Peckinpah that keeps you on the edge of your seats. One of Steve McQueen's best performances keeping you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. A must for every adventure collector. August 31, 2008

Great movie. Great transfer

This review is for the Blu-Ray version of this film. I really like this film and the transfer is the best I have seen. I had the Beta and Laser disc versions and this one looks wonderful. July 15, 2008
