Lyle Wheeler is a quick draw expert driving through New Mexico winning bets in "fastest gun" matches. he is speeding in a stolen car while being pursued by a highway policeman, whose car crashes during the chase. Lyle meets a stunning brunette waitress, Bobbie Jo, who joins him. Bobbie Jo reveals to Lyle that she dreams of becoming a country singer, and he discloses his admiration for Billy the Kid. They soon recruit others and become a hapless gang on the run doing their best to stay at least one step ahead of the law.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bobbie Jo & the Outlaw ("Blues"), June 7, 2011

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: Bobbie Jo and the Outlaw (DVD)

After YEARS of waiting for Bobbie Jo & the Outlaw to FINALLY arrive on DVD, I regret to inform the buying public that the copy I bought thru an AMAZON SELLER (DOES NOT PLAY) on my DVD PLAYER, despite the information presented on the site/& package. It states it's expected to play on DVD Players, but not necessarily DVD RECORDER & PC's. This is the same title/DVD that is an Amazon Exclusive that is also being sold by Amazon Sellers/EBAY sellers etc.

The disc doesn't even play in DVD Players, just freezes the machine/constantly spins the disc. After 3 tries I removed the disc & prepared it for shipping for a COMPLETE refund. It's a GREAT SHAME, as I was under the impression (as many would be) that these NEW "ON DEMAND" Limited Edition titles should work. Because MGM decided not to OFFICIALLY release Bobbie Jo & the Outlaw on DVD (as they worry it wouldn't be cost effective/weak market for a Cult 70's film that only would attract a particular demographic i.e. Lynda Carter fans/drive-in style films), they've decided to market it thru AMAZON in an ON DEMAND style-fashion, which sounded like a fantastic alternative but at the moment is a BUST!

The title is actually under REVIEW, as likely many people other than myself are having issues with it. Once again, a real shame as this is a Cult 70's drive-in classic that I'm sure many of you were looking forward to possibly seeing. I welcome anyone else to write & mention their experiences with this ON DEMAND title & if they had similar issues?

Hopefully in the VERY NEAR future, Amazon will work with MGM to redo Bobbie Jo & the Outlaw (corrected & free of flaws) so this title can be enjoyed by the fans of the film/Carter. It's a complete waste when a long awaited title is given this particular treatment as it seems it was a rush job. Another title I had planned to buy was FUTUREWORLD (1976) yet with the recent trouble with OUTLAW I'm a bit hesitant.

Also worth mentioning, the folks at Amazon that I tried contacting had ZERO information as to the OUTLAW & the various depts. could only create a trouble ticket & had no Contact Info on the higher-ups that actually are familiar with the title & arranged for it's distribution in the 1st place.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Even Think of Buying This Bomb, April 18, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Bobbie Jo and the Outlaw [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I figure there are two reasons why anyone would want to view this film. One: to see a bloody shoot'em-up bank-robbing epic. Leading characters Marjoe Gortner and Lynda Carter, join forces with Lynda's sister and her boyfriend and go on a crime jaunt, a-la "Bonnie & Clyde." No match for "Bonnie & Clyde" however, this shoot'em up fails in all areas. Reason number two one would want to view this film: To catch a view of "Wonder Woman" in a state of undress. Well, you ain'tah going to see that. All you see is a couple quick glimpses of her deflated left breast as she is lying on her back. You have to be fast with the eyeballs to catch the ole nip, or quick on the pause button. Even then, the video quality is so poor that the whole thing is just plain silly. Have you ever paused a video recorded in EP mode? Its all snow. There goes reason number two.

The film is released on VHS tape by Goodtimes Home Video, who is notorious for releasing movies in extended play. This results in very poor video quality. The entire movie appears to have been recorded on three feet of tape. The characters appear with an intense sunburn then go to yellowish to grainy. So, even if the film would have been good, you don't get a clear view of places and characters, especially Lynda Carter. Give it a pass and use the eight bucks to get a pizza. I think I'll throw my copy in the trash. What can one expect for eight bucks.
