Movie Reviews of Three Days of the Condor
Movie Review: Great Pacing, Charismatic Stars, Timeless Suspense
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm just getting around to seeing this espionage film. A young Redford scrambles to understand and outwit the unknown elements trying to eliminate him. Despite being over 20 years old, it doesn't have that dated feel that some films have.
The action grabs you without a lot of special effects and car chases. The scenes with the leading lady sizzle. Just watching Redford is a treat.
Of course, he was great in Butch Cassidy and in The Sting, so I don't know how I missed this one before. If you haven't seen it for awhile, treat yourself to a fresh viewing.
Movie Review: Superb
Summary: 5 Stars
I do not like to give away important information in my reviews regarding a story-line or specific contents. I feel that one can acquire this information from the Amazon posted reviews and other public reviews. I have never liked when people 'spoil the story' or the suprise of item I am about to hear, read, or view.This is one such story that cannot be 'given away' instead I recommend that you suprise yourself with this amazing suspense film. Intellegent, suspenseful, realistic, and just plain great. This is a timeless classic. Treat yourself - end of discussion.
Movie Review: More relevant today than ever.
Summary: 5 Stars
When I watch this movie it's as if the writer in 1975 had a pre-cognizance of what was going to happen in 2003. Pay particular attention to the last scene between Redford and Robertson. The words Robertson says are more relevant today that they were then.
Besides meaning and relevance it's also a great action thriller, with a little romance. Faye Dunaway is at her most beautiful and Redford his most attractive. They both give truly amazing performances as ordinary people accidently caught up in monumental intrigues they know nothing of.
Movie Review: superb !
Summary: 5 Stars
watch this film over and over again although getting slightly dated...just around the edges mind.
Cannot obtain a DVD of it in Europe yet for some unknown and bizarre reason, wish someone would explain this to me !.
The plot unfortunately is totally believable from my non-American perspective and the prophecy at the end will turn out to be very prescient in the not too distant future (hope I am not around for that!).
One of the best opening ten minutes or so in any film I can remember.
Totally recommended.
Movie Review: Superlative in every way
Summary: 5 Stars
One of my all time favorite movies. Reading the list of actors tells you this one is special and they all deliver. Calling the plot clever is an understatement, to say the least. You have to pay attention to stay in the story, and if you do, it will be over before you want it to stop, it's that good. Like me, you will long remember Faith Dunaway's response to Robert Redford's request from her for another assist in his unraveling of a most diabolical plot, when she asks,"Have I ever denied you anything?" They don't come any better.
