  • Hell this is one my favorites movies.

  • Not a CG in sight!

  • I would really like to see this original version of The Getaway, I've had no luck finding a copy of it anywhere. Steve McQueens movie's were always Great to watch.

  • @BlistardPussy Check Amazon. That's where I got my copy.

  • Ali MacGraw was freaking hot

  • I just love how nonpolitical correct his films are. McQueen beats the shit out of McGraw in this film, he's racist and against homosexuals...and he's the good guy. We need films to have more balls like this.

  • the 70´s got the best action movies ever

  • looks awesome!! I'll give it a try. GOtta see more McQueen.

  • mcqueen and peckinpah,that's all I need to know.Not their best,to be sure,but still way batter than the garbage put out today.

  • The couple itself is boring. Interesting is how all the people in this movie accept violence as a natural thing: the salesman who sells the shotgun as a rouine thing, the old guy who is only interested if they are married or not etc. etc. . This was, is and always will be a violent country thanks to the ridiculous gun laws the USA has. So nothing to worry about as long as they only kill their own people like Presidents etc.

  • the only thing about movies thats better about movies in the 21st century is the trailer. this is hilarious XD loved the movie though

  • Not a great movie, a good one, although lots of just plain dumb scenes, and jeez McGraw is such a terrible "actress" a cardboard cut out would have had more life to it. The only good thing is she admitted she sucked shit. McQueen just owned the camera, and that's why you fools rate this thing so highly.

  • It was a great movie. When it was on AMC, I watched it over and over; I never got tired of it.

    Ali McGraw, throwing over her privileged place as Mrs. Evans (the producer), it's all on film. There is nothing hotter on film, maybe Beatty and Annette Bening on Bugsy.

  • @brianallancobb Beatty was way hotter with Julie Christie and Faye Dunaway.

    Anyway you could tell something was going on offscreen with McQuen and McGraw. Pity that McGraw couldn't act for shit.

  • @Tigerlily21

    Yes, but what a fox.

  • i'm a newly found mcqueen fan besides the great escape what other movies did he ride a motorcycle in

  • @weathered79 Well he drives a mean Mustang in Bullitt. The chase is on YouTube.

  • today maybe movies sucks but trailers rocks!!!

  • There is nobody today that can edit and compose action scenes like Peckinpah. Even when McQueen’s shoots the car outside the gun store it is made to look intense.

    There is not an action star today that can hold a candle to McQueen. He left us too early.

    The Europeans had their renaissance 500 years ago. America had its artistic renaissance with films from the late 60s to the mid 70s.

  • this looks awesome

  • I adore Sam Peckinpah - one of the greatest directors of all time

  • In the 70's the American cinema was at its artistic height - Straw Dogs , Getaway , French Connection , The Exorcist , Jaws , Taxi Driver , Godfather , Deliverance ... the list goes on and on - I personally adore Sam Peckinpah and William Friedkin

  • @omegamann71 Don't forgot DIRTY HARRY

  • @bladrunner6 Yes , of course ! Eastwood , McQueen, Bronson - I miss those guys

  • I have not seen this movie. I have seen Bullitt and loved that movie. Car chase movies of the 70's were bad ass. These days car chases are just too over the top.If you like video game reviews,music reviews,and electronics check out my channel.

  • @PearlJammer07 The car chase scene in The Bourne Supremacy, was pretty awsome bud.

  • The greatest movie of all time!! Steve Mcqueen is the baddest actor of all time!

  • Ultra Classic. no other way to put it. i remember seeing this growing up in las vegas in the late 60's, Early 70's. what a magical time that was for me. Mod still ran things, Evel Knievel, Paul McCartney n' wings singin "Live n' let die" the Desert. just bein a kid in the 70's. carefree. and.........Movies like this. God, I miss those days. Life now, Parents gone, is hard, frightening and Bitter in this Horrible fucking world of the late 2000's. I wanna go back so bad.

  • @drumdude46 Hey, I'm with you man, I'll even drive 

  • @drumdude46 You are so damn right my friend...shit times know....want back to teh 70ths

  • @drumdude46 I hear your pain. Oddly, your description of American life was what influenced me to come here to begin with. The wild outdoors and opportunity. Yes, life is very tough now. But coming from a guy who has lived in other countries, we got it good here compared to a lotta places. I sincerely hope things get better for you. I saw the Getaway on tv in the late 70's when living in London. Couldn't understand my mom's fetish for McQueen. She said he had this personality more than looks.

  • older and The original...but Gay....dont like iam sorry

  • no megusto

    nmegusta

  • no megusto

  • me aburio

  • esta pelicula me aburio

  • esta pelicula me a gustado

  • the music by toots is great, what is the title ?

  • the remake of this movie was complete shit, imagine thinking you could remake this classic.

  • ☩☀ ☀ ☀ ☀ ☀☧

  • I saw this the other day, what a fantastic movie. The `70`s were the absolute peak of movies, I mean the amount of original classic movies in that 10 year period from 1970 to 1980 is insane, none of this remake shit you get every two seconds like today.

  • my great uncle wrote the book

  • This was a very good movie.

    Good job guys.

    Films rarely come together this well.

  • Such a amazing film..shame about the remake was total shite compared.

  • Clear case of the original film being better than the remake that came after. I do believe that Steve McQueen could beat the piss out of Alec Baldwin...

  • McQueen#s hairdo was quite unusaula for that time, wasn'it ? I do not understand the meaning of this strange haircut, but I know there must be one

  • @LazyGigolo It was cut that way to depict prison life. It kept growing back so fast, they had to keep cutting it til they were done with all those scenes.

  • BRILL MOVIE

  • Peckinpah was one hell of a filmmaker. Even though this was one of his lesser efforts, it could mop the floor with 99% of the crap that comes out today. Damn, the early '70s were a great time for American films...

  • @StrictlyBG

    True nowdays movies is shiit u watch 1 time and thats it u will never remember it again..

    Classic movies they use much more time for making one, with real fantastics actors, like Mcqueen.

  • and this movie was filmed in mexico caseta and fabens next to el paso texas in that time i was 5 years old somebody knows about this

  • I saw it for the third time tonight. wonderful movie !

  • I can understand you man. I love this movie so much

    fuck the 2000...movies today are fucked up. I miss the 70's

  • @StrictlyBG you're right-i can't stand todays movies.

  • @hollbri

    even the music

  • @StrictlyBG not al the movies are fucked these days but i agree old movies where better but thats whit most things old times where always better

  • @StrictlyBG I agree. Todays entertainment is stupid trash. they don't make 'em like they used to.

  • Sam Peckinpaw was a big influence on John Woo, Ali McGraw was a piece of ass! Steve McQueen was a true movie star.

  • that explanes windtalkers was he a big influence on Tarantino as well

  • Steve McQueen was super!! I love his baby blue bedroom eyes!!

  • a classic..mcqueen at his best

  • 2:50 Bang. Ha ha ha.

  • I have just given''The Getaway'' with Alec Baldwin about 15 minutes-yawn-Where do these contemporary actors get the balls from that they think they are beter than the originals?

  • Yeah I agree but McQueen needs to be in a movie surrounded by interesting characters/actors because he never once displays emotions when acting. Did good films though

  • @falcoman The producers/directors are to blame because they try to re-create and put their own spin on a classic. Then they hire the wrong actors, who take the job because they need the work.

  • epic fail smokedog

  • at 1:57 that reminded me of the getaway game

  • this dont look as good as bullitt but i still want to see it

  • of cors bullit is the mega hit of mcqueen

  • I think Tarantino sits down to watch this every time he starts a new script, no bad thing... I guess

  • Yes! I've always thought Reservoir Dogs was totally lifted from The Getaway...down to the black suit and tie McQueen wears. Thanks for the confirmation.

  • So was Pulp Fiction, when Butch's about to kill Marsellus in the store.

  • Yes, it was filmed in San Marcos,Texas. And the director, Sam Peckinpaw insisted that the gunfire be REAL gunfire. The mayor wouldn't allow it, so he had his crew and actors on the scene before daylight so it COULD be shot with REAL bullets...also when the movie was finished shooting, Peckinpaw (obviously an obsessive type) wanted to continue shooting, although there was no more script, and the actors and film crew had gone home. so obsession isn't always bad? a part of some genius

  • I don't know about Peckinpah more than he was an alcoholic and a nut.

    The prison scenes appear to be filmed in Huntsville at the Ellis Unit (exterior scenes after McQueen gets released) but other scenes were filmed at "The Walls" in downtown Huntsville. (No, I was NOT an inmate there).

  • McQueen always got it done.

  • This is one hell of a good movie; Steve McQueen you will live forever.

  • The offscreen stories on this film are legendary, like the head of Paramount pictures lost his wife to McQueen during the filming

  • The bank robbery scene was filmed in downtown San Marcos, TX. When I was last in San Marcos in 2002, the building was still there although the bank had closed. This was a cool movie.

  • Steve McQueen is the greatest actor ever. I've been watching movies like crazy for the last 11 years and somehow I overlooked him until a few weeks ago. He's amazing and this is a great film.

  • It's Frank Bullitt vs Virgil "The Turk" Sollozzo!

  • They don't make them anymore like that.

  • Peckinpah+McQueen= F'n Gold

  • Plus mama's boy Howard Sprague and Archie's little goyle = F'n Platinum

    Also, badass Al Lettieri could make Tony Soprano his bitch.

  • A great movie. Watched it once. Nice ending too. The dont make em like the used to it seems. All we we can do now is dream of the way good movies used to be... Looks like my generation forgot all the tricks from the last previous generations...

  • GREAT FILM...

  • Sally struthers interprets a very bad girl, Would have to include but scenes of her, then it was hot

  • I love this film. Has anybody the shootout in the hotel?

  • Comment removed

  • There's a lot of wannabe's out there...There'll never be anyone as cool as McQueen again, and sure as shit won't be a breakaway Director like Peckinpah which is very sad.

  • Where the fuck are all the Sam Peckinpahs and Steve Mcqueens these days? Damn my generation.

  • Too many sheep and not enough wolves...

  • I like when Sally Struthers dancing in panties

  • A great peice of 70's Americana, this is one of my favourite Peckinpah films with some fine editing, the opening sequence, I agree with "demirpla" on that, is v. good. Never seen any trailers for it though until now.

  • Not a great movie??? "demirpla"..time for your medication.

  • Steve rocks dude. This is an awesome movie. Your obviously just a ghey.

  • Not a great movie, at least not Sam's greatest. But it had very good editing at opening credits sequence.
