The turning point from Hollywood's moribund studio system to the impending youthquake of the 1970s, Arthur Penn's Bonnie and Clyde (1967) audaciously broke conventions, upset critics, and revealed a young audience's box office power. With its unstinting violence and sympathy for... Full review
A masterpiece that dares to be excessive!

'Bonnie and Clyde' is not a film about two real people famous for so many bank robberies and murders across the big country... It shows a new kind of fury in which people could be harm by weapons... The film, however,... Full review

What was the matter with Bonnie at the beginning of the movie, showing all of that skin? I can't believe this actually became a movie. It should have never been made. This would be considered one of my all time worst... Full review

When Arthur Penn's Thirties-set gangster movie first appeared in 1967 it was like a breath of fresh air in the American cinema, (though to be fair, on hindsight, the American cinema in the previous few years, particularly in the Independent... Full review

Like every other hollywood "true story" this one is really flawed when you actually research the events. Their attitude and actions did not reflect the sentiment at the time. It makes heroes out of murderers and thieves. Sure, the movie was... Full review

A great movie with a controversial in the times ending. Beatty and Dunaway portray their lead characters perfectly. The crime-action drama and the love story are a perfect fit. The direction was amazing in its entirety. No wonder it earned the... Full review

The 1967 movie is burned into our brains.....It's a masterpiece of cinema, and a stylish doctoring of history.....The film redefined the story of Bonnie and Clyde as a tale of arrogant bravado pushed to the limit..... ... Full Review

Urban Cinefile
The aforementioned historical feature (45 minutes) about the real Bonnie and Clyde is excellent....But some key elements are faithfully retained, including the tragic love story about two people who wanted to die together.....Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty deliver pitch perfect performances as Bonnie and Clyde, with characterisations that are layered and engaging.....All the accolades are well deserved, and none more so than a wonderfully economical script..... ...

PopMatters
In no way was it an attractive picture.....There are also a couple deleted scenes, trailers, and a hackneyed History Channel documentary that's best avoided.....Although the short pieces argue, of course, for the film being a classic for all time, there are welcome doses of reality here and there..... ...

We don't get to know her mood swings as much as we get to know Clyde's. Still, Dunaway has some emotional range to play around with, and Bonnie comes off as a real human being, rather than a stock gangster's moll. ... Full Review
