This film was a major dissapointment... I was expecting something much more ruthless and unforgiving... the scenarios and the way it happens is absurd... and Faye Dunaway as a shy girl is pretty quick to buy it and try it...if only all girls were like that... not a patch on Marathon Man... Only like the music and some of the street scenes
My mom got me to watch this movie with her recently, I kept being reminded of "The Bourne Identity" while watching it. I'm convinced whoever wrote the screenplay for the "Bourne Identity" was influenced by this movie.

Just saw this. Ridiculous. The plot is so confusing that I gave up halfway through trying to figure out what the fuck was going on. They could've shot Redford at least a dozen times over the course of the action (but I guess he's too blond to be killed). No one will ever explain to my satisfaction why Von Sydow didn't kill him at the end. It's awful. Faye Dunaway does not speak a single believable line. Even the music stinks. Avoid this movie.

lol i remember one scene where the fake mail man was knocking on the door robert was like ya what do u want hes all i need this signed and robert is all shes in the shower he's all ok u sighn it then then he was trying to sighn it and the pen wouldn't work and then he's all ok ill get another one then the mail man shuts the door tried to pull out a mac 10 and all hell broke loose and robert killed him
@Rocafile you forgot the part where the mailman says.."government pens" .... but hey, skilcraft pens wrote pretty good... lol one of the better fight scenes in a movie.. and the hit scene with the mailman is one of the most chilling in any movie in my view.. great movie
@adasdf342 you're right, sometimes trailers have cut scenes. in "the good the bad and the ugly" trailer, you have a little clip from a scene and they have lost the film where it was, so the only proof that we have that this scene exist is in the french trailer

ROBERT is Always GREAT, it's not just LUCKy/Good scripts. He was Perfect in: BAREfoot in the Park, The Candidate, Out of AFRICA, _The GREAT Gatsby_, Indecent PROposal, even in -The Spy Game- with SHITty PUBLICloveRAT Brad Pitt. Mr. REDFORD seemed to have stayed away from ADVERTISING/product-PLACEments, La La SLEEPING around ( inPublic) with BLONDe STARletS. Jim CAVIEZEL is also a PROficient CLASS ACTor who keeps it DECENT, CIVILised in (w)Holly_wood UNlike CASH-strapped clown GeorgeClooney...
the entire movie was/is on youtube.....I just dont remember what the title of the videos were....tdoc....or something like that. Cant find it any more.
This is an A+A+A+ Film, Very good Movie for its time worth watching ! worth having in your library,,Now I have to get back to work in my Section, I have more books to read and Research, if your intersteaded too, you can Research this "OPERATION GARDEN PLOT"
Seen this film about 30 times. Good then, good now. They don't make them like this anymore. The cast were all top notch, the acting carried the tension, rather than overdone music as often is now the case.
I saw this last night on TCM (as a tribute to Sidney Pollack); had never seen it before. Good music, for sure. The plot may have seemed shocking but now, unfortunately, we probably all can easily believe this could happen. The WTC scenes are especially dramatic here, of course.
I believe that most trolls are sad people, living their lonely lives vicariously through those they see as strong and successful. For trolls, any response is 'recognition'; Their ego grows directly in proportion to the response, regardless of the form or content.How sad do you have to be to find such mind-numbingly trivial time wasting to be funny? Remember that trolls are cowards; they'll usually post just enough to get an argument going, then sit back and enjoy the responses
God forbid they should remake this. I can see it without Sydney Pollack at the helm. Focus groups, test screening, a happy ending. No remakes, please.
A true to life film as I think if we only believed 10% of what Hollywood produces we'd be onto understanding alot more about the politics that cause war ect. The other good bit is the filming which took place inside the WTC
"if we only believed 10% of what hollywood produces we'd be onto understanding a lot more about the politics that cause war etc" is a scary thot. last place to learn anything is from liberal, rich, hypocritical, pornographic, illiterate, anti-elderly, anti-american hollywood.
By the way everyone: Lardass56 is a 14 year old fat girl from Kentucky who flames youtube because she's angry about being to disgusting to get a boyfriend. Poor her.
One of the best movies ever made. The tension between Dunaway and Redford is incredible. Dave Grusin's sound track is so cool. Max von Sydow rocks as the morally ambiguous assassin, and I'm not just saying that because he's my cousin.
Even though technology has changed dramatically, the basic premise and curcumstances of the protagonist are very real, even today.
I've no doubt she looked like Ms. Faye, and I'll bet she was far nicer, too. Look at the way they lit her for the railway scene -- and how Pollack let the camera linger upon her. She's the last of the great screen beauties dating back to the thirties era... same projected aura of Crawford and Davis and the rest.
thanks gore53. i didn't come up with this, but when we were first married - twenty-five years ago - people would come up to her when we traveled and ask if she was faye dunaway.
one time and you go "okay". many times and it's like, what's going on here? i was getting that "mr. faye dunaway" feeling. thank goodness, my wife is even nicer than she looks.
I've seen this movie three times and it is a GREAT film. Your parents are right...it is an intelligent thriller. You may have to take notes to keep up. Its pertinence to today makes it doubly eerie.
osama got the idea from this movie since the new york cia was going after arab oil from their world trade office
