Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
mikecartercorp You must be either a car enthusiast, or be willing to ignore the numerous errors in this movie, in order to fully enjoy it. The acting itself is quite ordinary, nothing great there. Music is okay, but nothing great. The rambling and unrealistic screenplay is a little confusing and some plot twists are unexplained. The over-rated car chase scene is too long and at times boring. It's not only unrealistic, but badly edited. A far better car chase scene can be found in the original French Connection movie. To think that this film won any awards for anything is ridiculous. There are numerous continuity mistakes throughout the film.
michaellimb This is an enjoyable film but there are holes in the plot a mile wide. If you are bringing a top gangster to trial (on a witness plea) why would you only assign one policeman to protect this man from the mafia? (one policeman changing shifts every so hours.) In a crappy hotel. The idea that the witness has let the security chain off is laughable. Do you know how long it takes to kick through a security chain? (about one second). If this witness was so important to a prosecution, surely he would have been placed in police custody? Even with police corruption, surely something secure could have been set up? A safe house, with a team of men? I used to love this film but now I find it very flimsy. It's better a social record of a time before mobile phones and mass surveillance.
Richie-67-485852 Good quality entertainment. It fits the detective murder mystery adventure genre like a glove keeping us glued to the screen. Helping this along is no other than Steve McQueen who just looks good in movies. A good story, some fine directing and a decent supporting cast and you have an enjoyable two hours on your hands. Who wouldn't want one of those cars after seeing the case scenes in this movie BTW. I like police drama where the badge is a privilege but also a hindrance in doing what needs to be done. In this movie, the law is respected and kept to forcing the star to use his wits and just good ole fashioned police work to prevail and win the day against a very smart perpetrator. That's why this works but only for its time. Today, rules are bent, waived and eyes are closed and authorities do what they want when they want hiding behind the law sad but true more often than not. Think dirty Harry and how popular that became when he tried to tread that fine line but crossed it when he had to. Good movie for a TV dinner and a tasty drink while watching. There is a TV dinners scene in the movie. Too bad Steve didn't milk this character of his called Bullitt as it would have done for him what the Dirty Harry series did for Eastwood. It was a good formula ahead of its time.
natekowalskitattoo This movie had all the elements involved in any great film, although nothing quite fit properly for the entire run time. It is comparable to a head chef buying all the top ingredients to make an amazing dish, then he calls in sick and someone has to fill in for him who doesn't know how to cook and ruins everything.That is what I thought of through the last half of Bullitt. The acting is great, the cops do not show many emotions but that is fine, that is how a cop should be. The bad guys are mysterious and violent. Tthe female love interest is believable. Tthe story is moving along nicely...then the movie drags out another hour, without anything happening and then without anything resolved...it ends.You do not find out who the bad guys were, you do not know why they were after the key witness, you do not know enough about the main characters love interest or what part she plays in the movie, the Senator character is not really explained. The crime organization is not explained at all. It is perhaps the most open ended movie I have ever seen.No part of the story is resolved or even concludes, and then when the main character finally finds this important key witness character, he shoots him to death and then the credits roll. What the hell happened????
