I finally watched this movie and I must say I was a little disappointed. Not that I thought it was a bad movie, just that I did'nt think it was as good as everybody says. The problem I had was the pacing was slow throughout a lot of the movie, especially the first 40 minutes or so. Also, aside from the ending chase on the bridge, the action sequences were not very exciting, which is a shame.
What I like about it was the cast was very good. Kurt Russell was good in what I think was his first tough guy role. I also thought Ernest Borgnine, Harry Dean Stanton, Lee Van Cleef, and Isaac Hayes were all good in their roles as well.
Overall, I think this movie is overrated, but it has some enjoyable moments mainly thanks to a good cast. 3/5
