Bullitt Reviews
Mustang Lovers consider this movie a religion..
All the way, the best chase scene in motion pictures. Better than the Godfather, the 7-ups or any of those. Mcqueen was just a lock and load tough guy in this movie. No one will ever bang a 67 Coupe thru San Francisco the way Steve (or the driver double) did in this flick. The plot is your basic cop flick going after a killer/bad guy but don't try to fool anyone; You're waiting for that one shot where Steve spots the black Charger and the chase is on.. The rest of the movie is basic cops and robbers. I liked the movie. By the way, if you have your video system is going thru your hifi, the chase scene is a full-on TURN-IT-UP-LOUD neccessity. To hear that Mustang banging thru the gears is just the way it should be. If your wife or girlfriend says its too loud, too bad. This is a guy flick from long ago. Have fun with Bullit. It was McQueens attempt at trying to do his own thing without Hollywood getting in his way. He almost pulled it off. Selmar productions died a quick death but left a legacy.
Are you tired of...
Idiotic and extraneous plots that a six year old would reject as implausible?
Childish "comic relief" and loud "ethnic" (read: minstrel) sidekicks?
Lame CGI marring otherwise cool chase scenes?
Cheesy moralizing and monochromatic characters?
Jerry Bruckheimer?
Good, because this excellent 1968 film features precisely none of those things (let's just hope Hollywood doesn't castrate this classic Steve McQueen vehicle with some half-arsed remake that features all of the above *cough*GoneIn60Seconds*cough*).
You will be fiending for a '68 Charger and/or Mustang after watching Bullitt, if you weren't already.
Get this as a teaser before purchasing Le Mans (the ULTIMATE car guy's movie). A gritty, intense, all stripped-down masterpiece.
