Cody S. This movie was awesome. Joe Don Baker’s charm combined with the steadfast, stone-cold killer, Robert Duvall was awesome. Karen Black, as always, a total cutie…. This movie was fantastic and checked most boxes for me. Didn’t dive too much into backstories, nor did it bore us with details that don’t really matter to run up the run-time. Gave us everything we need to know, while giving us enough to infer more about their past lives. A genuine 3.5 out of 5. Great movie!

Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/10/25 Full Review Christopher S The joy of early 70's films is its thirst for realism. Tamped down acting, regular looking actors, everyday settings. You have to wonder how today's movie scene would handle Duvall. He is not sexy, overmuscled, accented, or goofy. Yet, in this time period, he can be cast as a hero taking down a crime boss. Even the way he holds his gun is something modern directors would never dream of-- you know, the proper way, close to his body and up so he can protect it and aim well. This simple gesture is indicative of the entire movie. On the surface it is a trope-- a guy getting revenge for his brother's murder, enlisting an old criminal buddy to take on the mob. However, it is treated in a way that is relatable, using cunning, audacity, and bravery to get the best of his enemies. Contrast this with today's super-human stunts, bad guys who can shoot straight, and cringe one liners, and you will see why I appreciate this film so much.

Ao situar-se um pouco por toda a parte da Califórnia, "The Outfit" recai naturalmente para aquele género de filme em que toda a gente anda a preparar uma armadilha para alguém. Não há maior pântano de traições que a Califórnia. "The Outfit" insere-se portanto numa série de tradições que lhe condicionam os movimentos na tarefa de contar uma história de pura vingança (o sapatinho indicado para um realizador - John Flynn - que aposta geralmente na força bruta em vez da subtileza). Tudo isto contribui para um filme-bulldozer incapaz de fazer marcha-atrás, embora dotado de um elenco que representará puro gozo para quem aprecie filmes de acção desta dura temporada.
