This is going to be short and sweet. I liked the movie but it didn't really pack much of a punch. There were lots of iconic scenes which seem to have become tropes. I had seen bits and pieces of the movie through the years and now that I have seen it through it still feels a bit like I have scene bits and pieces. It has the chaotic non sequitur feel many movies from the 60's have. I find it jarring and don't care much for it. I feel it is a good movie but suffers too much from the time frame it was made. I found myself wondering in the middle of it about how hair styles have changed in westerns made in different decades. Robert Redford was rocking a serious quaff in this film. Some damn fine lines in the movie though. "there ain't no rules in a knife fight!" "hell the fall will probably kill you!"

Eh probably won't sit through it in toto again. B-
