I liked this film, even if for me it's not a masterpiece. This is a Sixties glamorous and overrated film, the main interesting points are the presence of McQueen and Dunaway (both young and beautiful), the clothes, the cinematography -in some scenes the screen is divided in different segments- and the superb score of French composer Michel Legrand.
It's an enjoyable movie, but the plot is not very exciting -many sequences, although well made, are too slow. Dialogs are not many and not well developed. It's a "fashion" picture.
I saw better films of Norman Jewison ("In the heath of the night" and "Rollerball" are classics, each in its own genre; "Fiddler on the roof" and "Jesus Christ Superstar" are great musicals; "A soldier's story" and "Agnes of God" are solid dramas).
I prefer the 1999 remake with Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo: there's more comedy and the action is better.
