No cavalry ever rode in with more epochal impact than the Wild Bunch in the legendary opening scene. Their steel-eyed leader, Pike (William Holden), and his robbers in stolen army uniforms help an old lady across the street, and then spark a massacre led by Pike's old crony Thornton (Robert Ryan), sprung from jail to hunt down his old gang. In just a few minutes, Sam Peckinpah sets the scene--a dusty Texas town in 1913--sketches a dozen vividly individualized characters, and choreographs one of the most realistic, influential, brilliantly photographed shootouts under the pitiless sun. The cast is superb (even Ernest Borgnine!), the dialog crackling, the bitterly ambiguous moral of the story hard-earned. It's the deeper, dark flip side to 1969's Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Consider buying the letterbox Wild Bunch, the review collection Doing It Right, and the Peckinpah bio "If They Move... Kill 'Em!" --Tim Appelo The Wild Bunch - The Original Director's Cut (Two-Disc Special Edition) Customer Reviews   1     2     3   ♥♥♥♥♥ The Magnificent Seven on steroids In this movie, Peckinpah dishes up violence like a glutton at a smorgasbord finally released from an enforced diet. It might have gotten a bit ridiculous except that William Holden, who anchors this film, keeps it within the realm of believability. Although purportedly a western, The Wild Bunch is really a buddy film that takes place in the Wild West--including the Mexican west for a good part of the film. This film is well staged and tightly scripted with fine acting by a great ensemble cast. Those that abhor excessive violence may prefer Peckinpah's [[ASIN:B000BT96DW Ride the High Country]], but this is an exceptional Western made by a great director at the top of his game.
