Bullitt

Pros: Realism, tight editing, the way the story unfolds

Cons: Not a hell lot

The Bottom Line: Classic cop film

Review: This may not be uncommon for a guy like me to say this, but I have a guilty pleasure for cop films. I have always pictured myself as being the macho cop that takes no bull from anyone and just goes about doing the job in as cool a manner as possible. ...

Pros: McQueen perfect, fine acting, riveting thriller, layered plot, exciting chase scenes, authenticity, subtle details, music.

Cons: Slightly confusing plot structure, decorative and underused Bisset, minor continuity lapse.

The Bottom Line: Read and find out why 'Bullitt' has become a film classic. '

Review: Nearly forty years after its theatrical release, I’ve finally seen ‘Bullitt’ (1968), especially famous for Steve McQueen burning rubber on the streets of San Francisco. Well, I just couldn’t agree more with most everyone’s fulsome praise of the film – ...

Pros: One of the best action thrillers I've ever seen.

Cons: Slow in some spots.

The Bottom Line: Bullitt is definitely one of the leading action movies of all-time.

Review: A while back my father and I were having a discussion of what defines cool. We dismissed many of the stars of today that are considered cool (Vin Diesel Fuel) and agreed that the quintessence of cool character in the world of film is definitely Steve...

Pros: A Great Story set in a great city with great acting and direction.

Cons: none

The Bottom Line: One of my favorite Steve McQueen movies...I love Steve McQueen movies.

Review: Steve McQueen plays the title role in Bullitt. The film, which was made 33 years ago, is nearly as vital today as it was back when it was made. Never was a role more suited for an actor than that of Frank Bullitt for Steve McQueen. Based on the book...

Pros: McQueen, Vaughn and Yates.

Cons: Top of the line for action/thriller.

The Bottom Line: McQueen delivers not only in cool but in quality. This is top of the line in the action genre. It doesn't get better.

Review: I hook up every so often with a life long friend and we head to Toronto to catch up: discussing everything from women to wine, film, art, music- the past, present and what remains of life's game. And it's usually in that order. As we did our last buying ...

Pros: McQueen, San Francisco, super hot cars, lots of action

Cons: A few slow spots to start.

Review: Frank Bullitt is the name, and Super-cool tough is the game! It's hard for me to remember that Steve McQueen is no longer with us. I mean, how could such a genuinely cool Dude do something as prosaic as die? Oh, well, at least Steve stuck around...

Pros: McQueen; direction; editing--and who can forget the chase?

Cons: None--unless an old-fashioned looking film is a problem

The Bottom Line: Attention to detail, the classic car chase, and McQueen's performance continue to make BULLITT a stand-out crime thriller

Review: In his all-too-short career, Steve McQueen was a charismatic actor with a very low-key, business-like approach to things. Unlike a lot of today's big-time action film stars, however, he could also ACT--and do so by not making it appear he is acting in...

Pros: Great action film. One of the best of its genre.

Cons: Helps if you like muscle cars.

Review: Several epinions have already roughly outlined this movie's plot, so I chose to write about those qualities which I feel contribute most to this great film.

Steve McQueen's performance as Frank Bullitt is a tribute to realism in film making,...

Pros: makes mustangs look cool

Cons: mustangs tend to blow up

Review: steve mcqueen is the man. okay so he's a spectacular cop, as opposed to the real life wonders who pull you over and act like.. well, cops. so just fast forward to about the middle of the movie, when the boss 302 jumps into action. oh great balls of...

Pros: Great car chase

Cons: Story hard to follow, Bisset ignored

The Bottom Line: Bullitt is a must-see classic cop drama with a world famous car chase sequence.

Review: I added Bullitt to my Netflix queue just so that I could see the famous car chase scene I'd heard so much about. I had to sit through over an hour of the movie before it happened, but it was pretty cool. I can appreciate how back in the late 1960's, a ...
