With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Tailor-made for people who root for the clever crook and music lovers. The fun is in the planning, the double-crosses and the moment it all goes sideways. A good follow-up to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid or The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top.
- The mood
- Easygoing.
- The pace
- Well paced, at 1 hr 14 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1956: an older pace and style.
Ready to quit their life of crime, the three "most-wanted" outlaws in the West---Butch Cassidy, Sundance Kid and Bill Carver ---perform their final job by robbing and stealing a train and fleeing across the border. In a South American town they begin their life of respectability by purchasing a ranch and depositing their stolen fortune in the local bank, and throwing a big fiesta to entertain the locals, including Colonel Aguilar and his beautiful daughter Rita.
