Editorial Reviews:

One of the landmark films of the 1960s, Bonnie and Clyde changed the course of American cinema. Setting a milestone for screen violence that paved the way for Sam Peckinpah's The Wild Bunch, this exercise in mythologized biography should not be labeled as a bloodbath; as critic Pauline Kael wrote in her rave review, "it's the absence of sadism that throws the audience off balance." The film is more of a poetic ode to the Great Depression, starring the dream team of Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway as the titular antiheroes, who barrel across the South and Midwest robbing banks with Clyde's brother Buck (Gene Hackman), Buck's frantic wife Blanche (Estelle Parsons), and their faithful accomplice C.W. Moss (the inimitable Michael J. Pollard). Bonnie and Clyde is an unforgettable classic that has lost none of its power since the 1967 release. --Jeff Shannon

Summary: Crime Doesn't Pay
Comment: The story line appears to have told the story of Bonnie and Clyde as it
really happened, i.e. how two average people can join together and make
a go of it. Still, regardless of how well they performed their chosen
field of endeavour it remains that it is a field not to be followed nor
encouraged since "Crime Doesn't Pay!"
Customer Rating:
Summary: a must have for the film buffs
Comment: A bargain at twice the price. This is a preview of the renegade filmmaking that would dominate the 70's and it is a must see. The extras are wonderful but it is the film itself that ranks as a masterpiece. Warren Beatty's first production effort shows he wasn't just a pretty boy anymore.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A rare Gangster Film.
Comment: This movie was before the craze, mobster, super-gore film Pulp Fiction so I suppose it was almost impossible to suspect while being engrossed in Academy Award-like performances that such a horrendous fate would lie in wait for the characters of Bonnie and Clyde; Just as twistedly surprised as for the almost unsuspecting duo as well. The fates of all the ill fated characters in more traditional mob movies such as the very movie which set the bar for all others: The Godfather (Widescreen Edition) had a ticker for its characters and their ends, while shockingly delivered, were all part of the live by the gun die by the gun rule. But this film has you romantically envolved in its characters, to the point where villain and proctagonist are blurred and you wait for your tear-filled happy ending. The ending punishes you and dispells the step-by-step way about doing a Hollywood film. As brave as the legendary Director Stanley Kubrick in all his glory. A Glowing achievement for Warren Beaty and all responsible for this great movie.

Summary: CLASSIC AMERICAN CINEMA. BEST PRESENTATION
Comment: THE GREAT THING ABOUT BLU RAYS IS THAT: THEY CAN'T LOOK BETTER.
SO IF YOU DON'T OWN THIS MOVIE ON DVD AND WANT TO HAVE IT. BUY IT ON BLU RAY. IT'S THE BEST OPTION.
ONE OF THE MOST SHOCKING MOVIES OF THE 60s AND A GREAT CLASSIC.

Summary: Takin' A Ride With Bonnie and Clyde
Comment: They rode the dangerous way of life,taking a chance with every stride,she was young and she was pretty,the man was insane robbing every bank dry in the far away cities.Times were hard and times were rough,sometimes they had to kill for the money,there never was enough.The law was always on their tail,for they were following the road into hell.One day they never realized,and much to their surprise,they were waiting at the end of the line.This was the fatal day for Bonnie and Clyde.(a short story.)This special edition two disc dvd is a good one,remastered audio and video,excellent special features including interview's with the cast,most important of all,a History Channel documentary of the real Bonnie and Clyde,worth it for this alone with some actual footage and rare photos of Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker.THE END
