Memorable, crazy movie
... View MoreDisturbing yet enthralling
... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreThe movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
... View MoreYou must see this just to see how such talented people, from the A-list all-star cast, both veterans and newcomers, a solid director and reputable writers can turn out such a mind-bogglingly God-awful mess. it just defies description so I won't bother with the plot, but if you're curious to see one of those things that sounds great and on paper and then ends, at which you point say to anyone watching "What the hell was THAT? Was it me, or ....?" No, it wasn't just me. Wowee!
... View MoreIf I could give this thing a zero, I would. Given the incredible cast, it's beyond belief that they came up with a movie this bad. When this came on TV, my friend said, "No, don't watch it!" That made me curious, so I was stupid enough to stay up until some ungodly hour of the morning to finish watching it. I kept thinking it would have some kind of redeeming social value in the end. I was wrong. I literally wanted to blow my brains out after watching it. So...if you'd like to commit suicide, by all means watch it. If, on the other hand, you'd like to have a good day, turn around and run away.
... View MoreWow, and I mean, Wow! What a film! I was captivated by the plot from the beginning until the end. The town is freaking out over the news of Bubba's escape from prison. Everyone has a different emotion behind it and a different reason for their feelings. The film focuses on this theme.Accusations are flown around. Affairs are being exposed. Plots are being revealed. Secrets are being unravelled. Families are turning on each other and people are trying to use their enemies for personal gain. What a sad and thought-provoking film.The characters and acting are wonderful. The dialogue is quick and witty. The settings are lovely and unique. The plot is riveting. The title describes the movie well. Despite the complexity of the plot, the movie is easy to follow and easily understood due to its timing and how it slowly and gradually reveals important details. Full of drama and romance, The Chase will have your eyes glued to your TV screen. Will Bubba get caught, killed, or find a way to be free? Will he be able to prove his innocence? Will Bubba ever get a normal life? I would recommend this movie to anyone who loves crime, drama, and/or thriller movies.
... View MoreThe Chase is a vigorous work by Arthur Penn, one of the best. Powerful work. The photograph of the film is perfect. The formidable cast works extremely integrated, allowing the constant action to develop in a natural way; all are perfectly framed in their roles. Of course, at this point it is evident the competence of the director. Some consider exaggerated scenes of violence, especially those involving assaults the Sheriff Calder (Brando), but we know that reality is possibly even more violent, or at least it was in those times. Or they will have forgotten the events surrounding the Kennedy assassination? There is a great similarity between the scenes of the film and what happens and happened in reality. Robert Redford loomed here for his successful career and Jane Fonda, discreet, yet showed their full potential. Angie Dickinson is the faithful companion of Brando, with its lush beauty. And Janice Rule shows the great actress who was in a difficult role, but plays with great naturalness. It's really a story vigorous, violent and intriguing. A great movie.
