Above all, amazingly entertaining, with fantastic action sequences and brutal scenes of violence. But it's also a swan song of the dying old west, and there's powerful emotional resonance with this group of ragged, hard-edged old cowboys, who, despite their misgivings, carry with them the weight of pride and honor. One of the all-time great movie endings.

One of the most brutal and intense westerns I've ever seen. The tension between the Bunch and the bounty hunters, and even the tension among the Bunch itself keeps things interesting. Then the sheer violence and chaos of the gunfights works as a big payoff. Throughout there's a certain sentimental quality, as the men are very aware that their way of life is coming to an end, and it lends a sense of balance that, I think, defines the movie.

This is the greatest western ever made. Sam Peckinpah's masterpiece stars Bill Holden, Robert Ryan, Ernest Borgnine, and Warren Oates, and it blows me away every time I watch it. 3 massive action setpieces (a bank robbery, a train robbery, and the cataclysmic final massacre) highlight this somber tale of the dying old west, and old men who can't keep up with the pace of their violent lives any longer. Unbelievably bloody and sad. #3 in my all time top 10.

"Brutal" is a word that gets thrown around a lot in the description of this film, and for good reason. Despite forty years of films trying to top and outdo each other in terms of violence, this film still packs a powerful punch today. But beyond the content, it is a very competently made film, with great direction, action sequences, and loads of tension. Slows down a little too much after the brilliant opening heist, but once it gets back into gear, it fails to disappoint.

The Wild Bunch is a top notch western. It's got some truly classic sequences, the acting is terrific, the editing is very impressive -- especially in the fight scenes; and it's even got some surprisingly emotional moments. It's no chick flick, but the end in particular definitely resonated with me more than the average action movie does. There are of course some slower parts that aren't as exhilarating as some other scenes, but that's usually more of a strength than a weakness. Brilliant.

I've read several interpretations, all of which worthwhile: as a look at the nature of humanity, it's bleak and powerful; as a take on the western with the removal of the "hero" element, it's refreshing and original. But most of all this is a visceral experience, complete with violence and smart characterization that's at once unwatchably brutal and highly entertaining.

Can't say that this one struck much of a chord with me. It covers a lot of familiar Western themes - the encroachment of modernity leaving no room for the honourable outlaw and so on - but the pacing and the story just left me cold. Robert Ryan's character seems totally superfluous to the rest of the narrative and the lighter, more humorous moments didn't mix well with the grimy violence. The two main action sequences are worth a watch, but overall I found it fairly disappointing.

The fact that this movie was filled with a sense of decay, depravity and man's capacity for cruelty made it a more interesting watch than a lot of 'heroic' westerns or ones that are all about the cool, badass factor. Some interesting characters and conflicts, and it was a good watch throughout.

A great redemptive ending that connects all the dots and makes some thematical sense of it all saves it from being downright bad. But the first two hours aren't worth much. The humour is forced, there's never any real tension in either the plot or between the characters and the action scenes, albeit wonderfully brutal, have a poor sense of space. Maybe they're intended to be chaotic but I like my action to make spatial sense and not just to be a montage of people firing shots and getting killed.

"The Wild Bunch" opens with a bombastic action sequence, featuring a bloody town massacre. What ensues isn't as fascinating, but enough to make Peckinpah's western an enjoyable if flawed picture. It suffers from glacial pacing during the middle segments, but the influence it has had on other films is apparent -the revolutionary use of violence and Peckinpah's direction of the action scenes have proved seminal. The moral ambiguity is appreciated, while there's also some fine acting on display.

Solid as all hell western that's somewhere between heroic romanticism & brutal nihilism. Human decency gets ceaselessly run over by the dynamics of the two. Peckinpah conjures up grave contradictions in story & style, wallowing in the wounding baseness of humanity. Uncomfortable & conflicting but to a point, I think. Excellent performances and a great balance in content. I still think that PG&BtK is more consistent & effective but damn, this commitment to misanthropy would make von Trier cringe.

I don't know if I really care for Peckinpah's influence in action films (set up 8 cameras and cut furiously), but the violence (blood) and slow motion shots were often striking. It's basically a grittier version of Vera Cruz though...not that groundbreaking.

Generic Western seasoned with additional fatalism and antiheroism, and a dash of politics. Some impressive moments but overall still susceptible to the tedium that comes with the territory. Numerous scenes of delirious group cackling, presumably intended as laughing in the face of death. Women don't speak.

I can see the greatness of it, but at the same time I just didn't care. Peckinpah's view of the world as a place where the last shreds of human decency are snubbed out by relentless brutality and dishonor isn't necessarily one I disagree with, just not one I care to inhabit when I watch a movie. The action scenes were brilliant, though, really well edited and very influential. Overall, I thought it was good enough, but I'd probably never bother watching it again.

I just didn't care, there's no one to root for. The influence this movie has had is striking and very apparent (Michael Bay must love this film) but it's an influence that I hate. There's something beautiful in letting a scene develop, all the fast cuts just make me dizzy. Still, there are some solid scenes but this is just overrated. This movie also owes a lot to Bonnie and Clyde.

Startling violence and innovative action setpieces that are still exciting after all these years, but the story between those sequences (opening, train robbery, closing) is slow and seems like means to an end, so the film doesn't carry much narrative oomph. On the plus side, good photography and music makes the period very convincing and the cast makes pretty standard lines ("If they move, kill 'em!") instantly memorable. Important and often entertaining, but it's no masterpiece.

The Wild Bunch is not one of Peckinpah's best. It's somewhat uneven, maybe even more so than the notoriously blundered final cut of Major Dundee which was all but disowned by Peckinpah. Still, it's the work of a master, and the ending is one of the most lyrical and deeply ironic endings ever.

It's brutal and tense, but I couldn't shake the feeling that this was more a film pieced together from a fierce conglomeration of individual ideas for scenes -- some of which are incredible, to be fair -- than a truly gripping story with interesting characters.

Suprisingly good on re-watching after 40 years (or maybe after never watching it before). There is hardly a weakness in this production, when you are looking at Lucien Ballard's photography, listening to Jerry Fielding's score (with Mexican corridos and musical tips to The Magnificent Seven), or following a great script by Walon Green and Peckinpah, so deeply interpreted by two good-bad guys William Holden and Robert Ryan (heroes of WWII and postwar films).

A superb cast, innovative direction, outstanding action set pieces, and a tight screenplay helps elevate this film among others within its genre. Ahead of its time by utilizing quick cuts, slow motion, and multi-angles, Peckinpah creates a one of a kind, brutal and dark western. Special shoutout to my hero, Warren Oates, who is the king of playing horny bastards.

The violence in this movie is unbelievable. Innocent people, including women and children, are put directly in harm's way and are often killed. The film and the characters are indifferent of who's being killed and who's doing the killing - it's all just meaningless violence. This is a notion we've seen many times since, but it originated here. Peckinpah's direction is tight, with just enough stylish splashes. Holden and Borgnine are a delight. This is one of the best westerns I've ever seen.

Peckinpah's influential revisionist Western was viewed as forward thinking at the time, but it's very much a transitional film, caught neatly between two eras of film making. It has the scope and craft of classic cinema, but its innovative associational editing and approach to violence is decidedly modern; even today the final climactic shootout packs a brutal punch. But what stands out are the quieter moments, where the sadness and sense of fatalism beneath the surface become manifest.

Rewatch. It's been a number of years since I've watched this. I will make it far fewer next time. Every inch is fucking perfection.

Meanders at parts in usual Western fashion, but even in those slower moments I appreciated the tension and atmosphere. Not recommended for people who don't like Westerns or can't be fucked to wait for a movie to build up. Also, definitely not recommended for anyone who dislikes misogyny and machoisms in general. The Wild Bunch is gritty and violent as all hell, but the relationships between the main characters are developed nicely, albeit subtly. The last scene had me on the verge of tears.

Good western, although the length of bloody fight scenes and interactions with supporting characters seems excessive.

A pretty brutal Western film. It's hard to like many of the main characters (Borgnine, Holden), but at the same time, you want to see them succeed and get away. Robert Ryan was spectacular. Deke is certainly my favorite character. Movie had good pacing and ended with the bang you knew was coming. Certain to leave an impression, and rightly quoted as being one of the greatest Westerns of all time.

The action itself is dated and the editing is cheesy. I appreciated it for turning the genre a bit on its head by casting violence in an ugly light, rather than glamorizing it like most Westerns. However, it just never really grabbed me.

OK, so you got these pretty skilled guys and you got some unskilled (already captured) outlaws following them, one of whom is an old teammember of the skilled guys (but he got caught). The skilled guys are trying to get rich fast and end up smack in the middle of a Mexico-US conflict. The whole movie was pretty pointless and the first hour was even pretty dull.. it started getting interesting with the train scene and yes, the ending was just EPIC (cool shootout). But I think it's overrated ...

Such a blast. Gotta love that everyone here doesn't give a damn about casualties -- innocent people die all the time -- and is just expecting the other guy to fall -- in beautiful slowmo -- to steal his boots, his rifle or his gold tooth. This pack of sweaty, dirty, old, tiresome old cowboys expects to score one last job and finally retires -- but they know this is probably not happening.

Start off really, really slow but gets better once you start getting to know the characters better and the action and humor also picks up considerably during the second half of the film. The ending sequence especially is quite epic. Has a bunch of issues with the video presentation though that are hard to ignore.
