it was completeley awesome
A perfect film, the best film of the 1970s, one of the best films of all-time. Need one say more?
It was no fluke this movie won so many oscars. We just rented this movie again after so many years and it still is incredible. Great story, acting, comedy, suspense, direction. Newman and Redford.. One of the top ten of all time. Smaller children will not be able to follow the plot and if your girlfriend or boyfriend can't follow this, dump them quick!
their is no widescreen dvd of the sting, only vhs. i know because im going thru a lot of hassle with returns. do not order this dvd if you think it is in widescreen!!!!!!!!!
Everything came together perfectly in this film - the cast, the sets, the story, the music and of course, ..... the sting! Since it's release, other films have come close, but none have surpassed the mastery of The Sting.
A wonderful film that entertains from start to finish. Still hold up great after almost 30 years. George Roy Hill reteams with Paul Newman and Robert Redford from "Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid". This film has all that "Buth Cassidy" lacked and more. Newman and Redford are great playing Chicago area conmen in the depression area of the 1930's. Robert Shaw makes a great villan. See this film from the beginning for you fullest enjoyment!
masterly show, and a reminder what a memorable score will do to an already excellent film.
Unlike the disappointing Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, this film was actually a worthy vehicle for two mega-stars. The script is so tight and sharp, you can cut your finger on it. So many classic film elements make The Sting a winner...the washed-up old pro and the hungry-for-blood hotshot teaming up to set the stage for an underdog victory. Excellent.
This movie has it all great acting, great writing, and great directing. Only wish there were more like it.
The terrific smash hit "Sting," heralded as one
of the most favored films in history comes home on
DVD! The picture quality is superb and the convenience
of DVD adds to the enjoyment of being able to play
scenes like the famed "train car poker game" over and
over again at will. -deffinately a plus. The only
negative aspect about this movie is that the audio was
never re-encoded, so 2 Channel Digital Mono is the best
you can hear from this one. Hopefully a "collectors
edition" or director's cut will follow allowing for
digital 5.1 stereo or DTS. Otherwise an excellent film!
Plenty of entertainment that goes beyond one
sitting.
