Rating: 3/5
I decided to check out the other Hill - Newman - Redford flick. While Newman and Redford have plenty of charm and banter, the script is pretty weak. It does that Midnight Cowboy thing of two guys who got lost on the road to nowhere in particular.
The film, like The Sting, has plenty of style and montage out the wazoo. The Burt Bacharach score is memorable, especially “Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head.”
I enjoyed the performances, and a couple of the gags had me laughing. It’s not a bad movie at all, it just doesn’t do much for me.
