Disadvantages: The DVD could be better

A review of the old Warner Home Video DVD, as that’s the one I own. It’s about £5 on amazon. The Wild Bunch is a classic Western. Although the violence is fairly tame by today’s standards (I doubt it would get an 18 certificate if it was submitted today) ...

Advantages: Visuals, sound effects, direction and acting
Disadvantages: Drags at times

A Gem of a Film

Advantages: Clint Eastwood Western (need I say more)
